And this is the problem with your Libtard analysis. It's based on the "perception" that black people are unjustly shot by police. The facts show otherwise. More white people, by a higher % of interactions with the police, are shot by police. It's a statistical fact that if you are white you are more likely to die in a confrontation with police than if you are black. It's just that African Americans commit so many more crimes they have more interactions with the police and these result in death at times.
Now that being said, the entire premise of your argument is based on a faulty "perception."
You haven't seen Daniel Tosh's standup? He rips everyone, is white, and gets away with it. One of my favorites!
really?Analysis? No, it’s a very simple observation. Perception is reality when telling jokes. Maybe there exists several videos of white kids being unjustly shot by cops, but nobody is familiar with them. People are familiar with white kids being shot in school shootings and nobody is joking about that. I’m certain that your not touching that “analysis” was no coincidence.

We live in a day and age of heightened sensitivity to race. In a day full of misconceptions of violence that are directed based upon race. We as a society are working to fix race relations.
You cannot fix race relations by being one sided. You cannot fix perceived racial inequalities towards one race by ramping up racism to another race.
Still my argument was never about late night or TV, it is about the art form known as Stand up comedy.
After all,. Democrats dominate in stupidity...they offer way more material for stand ups than does the right.

Jay Leno was the only one who played fair.
Let me repeat, since you keep deflecting.

This is how violence escalates. One gang shoots another gang's member, the gang retaliates. And it becomes circular.
You cannot fix race relations by being sensitive to one racial community's plight while encouraging racist behavior be directed towards the former. That will only lead to retaliatory responses. If we are going to be sensitive to racism, we have to be sensitive to all racism. We cannot tolerate racist jokes towards whites while prohibiting racist jokes towards blacks. We cannot tolerate racist treatment of whites while prohibiting racist treatment towards Hispanics. In order to fix the problems, we have to treat everyone with common decency and respect.
Chris Rock is being allowed to "walk" for his racist jokes. And it is a fact, if a white person had made these jokes about African Americans, they would be Kathy Griffin'd.
If you condone this double standard, then you have no interest in fixing these issues of inequality.
Condone a double standard? No, but much of this board probably does.
Rock’s joke is the photo negative of Confederate monuments. Arguably offensive but not really hurting anyone until people decide to be offended and become self-made victims. PC nonsense.
I’m not going to go back and check, but I bet most of the people taking offense to Rock’s joke rolled their eyes at people protesting Confederate monuments.
Understand, but don't you think stand up comedy acts heavily lean toward ridiculing the right?
After all,. Democrats dominate in stupidity...they offer way more material for stand ups than does the right.
You had comics who lied about what Sarah Palin said just so they could ridicule a Republican...when there were things said by libtards such as ".islands float", "where on Mars did the astronauts plant the American flag?"...stupid **** uttered by Joe Biden, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi....democRATS so rich in buffoonery!
Sarah Palin never said that she could see Alaska from her house.
Most stand-ups are lefties...they mimic the left wing media, looking for anything to belittle the right in their routine, even lie.
Libtard stand- ups attempt to pass off conjecture and hearsay as truth. They lie . Why lie when you have DemocRATS? Because they themselves are democRATS.
Jay Leno was the only one who played fair.
I don't know about you guys, but I live in a more racial America. Obummer increased the racial divide.
It depends. There are large swaths of stand ups that don't even touch politics. I also remember all comics ripping on Clinton during the Lewinski crap. I don't take sides in comedy. If it's funny, I'll laugh. If it's humor wrapped in irony, I laugh harder.
Laughing about Bill Clinton getting head under the desk in the Oval office from a butt-ugly girl is comedy material. Anthony Weiner jokes are funny.
Joking and encouraging cops to take human life isn't. I don't care what container you put that in or what lipstick you put on that pig. It's wrong. It's just like Kathy Griffin holding a severed Trump head. "Hey, it was all a joke. I didn't mean it." It's a crossed line, period.
Anthony Weiner jokes are funny.
Joking and encouraging cops to take human life isn't.
Once again. If you didn't watch the stand up, you are no better than Coach commenting on games he doesn't watch. I have no time for ignorance, and this opinion is ignorant.
So sending sexual explicit pics to a minor if fair game, cops shouting white kids is out of bounds? WTF?
I did go and watch the routine. It didn't change my perception a bit. But keep arguing context. He was out of line. Repeated for the 5th time, if a white comedian had made this joke about black kids, he'd lose his job, endorsements, being ridiculed, and run out of town.
And don't call me ignorant Cope.
Ignorant is a temporary term for someone that didn't watch the source material. As soon as you watch it, you stop being ignorant.
The double standard doesn't hold in standup.
Most people aren't looking to their standup comedians for political policy or racial equality.
Plenty of shock comics like Jackie Martling, make a living at ripping other races.
And since you watched the source material, you now understand that the words weren't the joke, it was the absurdity of the statement that made it funny.
