And perhaps a statement "banishing" political correctness from the board.

Which means what? Allowing any old racist crap?

We prefer new racist crap, honestly. Actually, if we could just replace PPR with Uncle Ruckus and the racial humor of Dave Chapelle, then that'd be just fine.

Chappelle quit his show because he thought it was too racist and it was weighing down on his psyche.

Uncle Ruckus is supposed to be an ad absurdum parody of the conservative right and some of its more implied racist beliefs and comments. Basically, Ruckus is Rush Limbaugh if Rush were to speak more freely of his beliefs.

This is where I disagree: Chappelle was not racist enough. I think jokes making fun of white people are funny, AND TRUE! Electric guitar speaks to my soul:

ah i miss his show

skafather, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Chappelle#Season_three_turbulence to summarize the show was interfering with his goals, and perhaps because he feared he was fueling racism,(which is what i got from the article but I'm sure it could be viewed differently.) which is understandable to say the least. it also seems he was worried he had developed views that disagreed with who he wanted to be and so he took steps to help himself.

Greenblue: I'm offended. Honestly, why would you engage in such hate-speech? MODERATORS!! !! !! !

Moderators won't save you, you terrorist sympathiser you.

Yeah... You know what??? I can't stand this racist crap. Really. I'm definitely reporting this. How DARE you accuse me of being a terrorist sympathizer?!?! You would NEVER have said that if you didn't already know I was an ethnic Christian.

Christians? They're the worst. Over here the only way to stop them was to elect them to the parliament.

This is just about as legitimate as what Master_Pedant did for John_Browning.
