: you all seem to believe just because some misguided people within the race (granted its the majority) have decided to use the same racial slurs as inter-racial slang makes it okay. it doesn't make it okay. the intelligent section of the race realizes that it is ignorant and misguided to use the same slurs as those who oppressed and killed and ensalved our ancestors.
I never said that. But what you're saying, if I read you correctly, is that any artist whoever creates a character who is a racist, if he wants to portray that racism accurately, will automatically become a racist?
I'm not even saying Jay is a real racist, based on everything in all five movies excepting one single incident that was cut, but even if he is, how does that make Kevin one?
: quite a few young white males have gotten press over the pass few years for school shootings, i suppose that means that the rest of you think that it is now okay.
To make a movie about? Sure. I'll watch it, if it's a good movie.
