Since when was being a whore a matter of race or skin color?

******************

The racist portion of the joke wasn't the reference to prostitution, it
was the need to use the stereotypical accent and slang associated with
African Americans (ebonics) to make a very poor pun.

Litmus test: Could JohnH tell that joke to a class of mixed race
teenagers while subbing at a public school and expect there to be no
reaction? (Beyond the predictable lack of laughter, of course).


Give me a fricken break Chuck.....and lighten up.

Almost as funny as John's "joke".

BTW, "lighten up", is that a racist remark? (kidding!)

If you are referring to Michael Jacksons dream, it would be. ;-)
