Time to move on folks....the PC crowd is suffocating me.

Doubtful.

Your joke was marginal. When others began suggesting names of other
African Americans to substitute for Mike Tyson in the punchline, the
thread, (as observed), became racist and the implication was that the
enunciation "Fe Fi Fo" (for the numbers three, five, and four) was
typical among people of color. Unless one cares to represent Jesse
Jackson as a punch drunk pugilist, the follow-on comments took the
thread in a racial direction.

Go find yourself a sense of humor that doesn't rely on putting other
people down, or defending those who do.
