I almost shat myself when I heard Don Rickles doing his racist schtick back in the 70's. Compared to that idiot Kramer from Seinfeld I think Rickles would have been shot
A lot of comics make a living saying the most inappropriate line you could possibly say at any given time. It's their "thing." If Don Rickles had told the same joke, nobody would have cared. America has turned on Lewis.
Hmmmmm, what was so offensive? When people reach a certain age, as in Mr. Lewis' case, they have the right to say whatever they want. Who cares? What was offensive? When he dropped the "F" bomb a year later or the during the same telethon, was I offended as someone of the alternative lifestyle? No. I laughed hysterically...This is what I keep in perspective: "People need to get over themselves..."
I hate political correctness. The very few impose it on the rest of us, although I can see it dying off now. Still, judges need to tell groups like the ACLU and NAACP to shut up and get out of my courtroom with that bullshit. Of course that would mean getting rid of many liberal judges first. They do not represent viewpoints of the vast majority of Americans.
While I 100% agree with you with all you've stated, one CAN'T insult a race of people like Jerry did on this video. Why? That's how PC began!!! libs are tards!!! Think about it...
I agree with this statement one hundred percent. America is losing the balls it was founded on, thanks to the puny little wind bags who find that everything in history is somehow offensive. But they will all fail in the long run. I hope PC proponents die of starvation.
Maybe he's got a big ego, but that's because he's such a big legend. His talent has been big, and his heart also, he proved it many times, so why should he lack in confidence?
The video isn't clear but why were all the boys shirtless?

This politically correct garbage is destroying America.
Remember how we laughed at John Belushi and Samarai Night Fever?

Get over it, he grew up in the era before desegregation, and while we were at war with the Japanese, he's old school.
