I remember this bit very well and have posted about it as mocking, black tinfoil hat stuff..

Has anyone ever experienced the “all white world” perks that is portrayed in this bit...?

..really how nut do you have to be to think this bit is white reality vs black paranoid delusion....

Has anyone that was involved with this bit stated it was suppose to be truth about the white world vs satire on black tinfoil hat paranoid?

If you can infer from his new girlfriend, he "exposes" himself to at least one white person every night.

I think autorecognizes links (e.g., http://www.dont_post_a_link_unless_you_know_what_you_are_doing.com) if there is no other html in the post. If you put html commands in the post, then you need to do the href command to make the link live. OTOH, it will be ironic if this doesn’t work this time.

It is a parody. Complete nonsense. Of course there is no white privilege...that is the point of the skit!

Sure, but we never got free stuff. We did not get free money from the banks, free newspapers, dancing and drinks on buses, etc. Nor would we want free stuff. The ethos of America has always been to “owe no man anything but to love one another”!

I should correct one thing though.

I think that it captures the sense of community and trust that America had before the 1965 Immigration Act, but the specific examples that Murphy used allowing someone to pilfer as a brother, taking over the bus with music and dancing, affirmative action loan, are more representative of blacks, than whites.

The whites would have paid for the store owner’s paper, would just want peace, cleanliness, and a pleasant atmosphere on the bus, and would treat a loan as a business transaction.

I guess I didn’t get post 26 in quick enough, but your points were correct.

SNL used to be able to do funny stuff back before leftist PC turned us into a fascist state. Remember the bit when Je$$e Jack$on hosted SNL over 30 years ago and he wanted to walk up to see all the brothers that were working in the production control room and all the Whites working there had to quickly get up and move out so they could replace them with Blacks a split-second before Je$$e got to the room ? They couldn’t do that bit today. (Click to about 3:50 in the video if you don’t want to listen to him go on about his ‘84 campaign).

I consider that skit as a fairly accurate representation of America, before 1970.

In America, people trusted each other, we actually left our keys in the car in our driveways, I never owned a house key, our windows were kept wide open, our bicycles lay out in the front yard.

Actually, crime is a fraction of what it was in the '60s and '70s. But you have a point. Back then, we were rational, free people. Today we are terrorized infants.

This is one of my all-time favorite SNL bits.

What crime rates are you comparing to the 1950s and 1960s?

Jerry Seinfeld has recently made some much-toned-down, but similar statements.

It’s all true, but Maher’s helped mightily to contributing to the current situation. Leftists today, totalitarians all, are some of the most frighteningly humorless individuals I’ve ever seen (especially the young people indoctrinated in public schools/colleges and by the depraved culture).

Radicalized, anti-Christian automatons ready to harken in the total PC-fascist state. Like the Hitler Youth at the end of the Weimar Republic, the Leninists of the early Soviet era or Mao’s Cultural Revolution yoots. Frightening times we’re in today.

probably put a < p > (without the spaces) in for the paragraph break... screws up auto linking.

In America, we used to read stories about an honest people.

I remember an article about someone’s mailbox in an all white community, where the owner put some money in it with some little sign, that I forget the wording, but he said that over the many years, that the money sometimes increased, and sometimes decreased, but that the self loaning seed money, was kept alive for a long time, many years, although I don’t recall the number, I think it ended in the 1970s.

It was assumed that people always did the right thing, that was just the norm.

Sadly, those days are gone.

I never watched SNL ever,but one night while at work the TV was on in a patients room and there was a game show on.
I started watching and was just appalled.
One of the contestants was attempting to win a vacuum cleaner.
In all sincerity ,he said he wanted to win the vacuum cleaner so that he would be able to vacuum up all the little kids hair that fell out.Said he worked around kids on chemotherapy.
I walked out to the desk and told the other nurses about that scene.
It wasn’t until later I found out about SNL and that person was Eddie Murphy. Duh!

Something that the younger freepers might not know is, that while we left our doors unlocked during the day, and our windows wide open, we also kept our guns in the living room in nice display cabinets, or hanging on racks in the hallway, just like we did with our China.

Building nice display gun racks for the home, was one of the most common wood shop projects.
