There are definately certain things in this country that you can't make fun of : Aids, Race, Religion, and the list goes on. Because race was involved, it made this a touchy subject...but no harm was intended....look at this...now I am getting sucked into it also. Lets just squash this shit and drop it. Let's stop it before it gets to page 8!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!!!! [Freak]
Wasn't really a joke. A joke is something like:
Q: What do you throw to a drowning Mexican?
A: His family

It's said to get a chuckle, and you assume it was meant in good fun and wasn't serious. This "joke" was more like:

"he burned the american flag at ground zero of the World Trade Center!! I saw him do it! Lynch him!"

how many of you would get pissed off and riled up if someone told you that someone on xoc did that, then said "ha ha, I was just trying to get a reaction" ??
