When will comedians ever learn?
Proving yet again that colleges are no places for purveyors of humor, student organizers at a Columbia University event kicked off the stage a comedy writer from the long-running show “Saturday Night Live” after he told some “offensive” jokes.
Nimesh Patel was interrupted by members of the Columbia Asian American Alliance about 30 minutes into his routine at the AAA’s “cultureSHOCK: Reclaim” gig. He was, however, “provided” an opportunity to offer closing comments before his exit.
According to the Columbia Spectator, the joke that crossed the line was about a gay black man from Patel’s old neighborhood: “No one looks in the mirror and thinks, ‘this black thing is too easy, let me just add another thing to it.’”

This guy’s humor doesn’t make me laugh.
But what the Left is doing to itself makes me laugh. A lot.
It still took 30 minutes.
If he was a conservative speaker it would have taken -14 days to cut the mic and run him out.
Big time commie influence going on at our colleges...
“No one looks in the mirror and thinks, ‘this black thing is too easy, let me just add another thing to it.’”
That is so lame! So, this character is a paid professional joke writer?
That is the only thing that offends me...
He writes for SNL which has not been funny for what 30 years.
Its not even original. When asked if he was gay, Sammy Davis, Jr. answered, “I’m a short, one-eyed, black Jew. Do I need to be gay?”
Comedy has no place of value in a society plagued by Political Correctness.
Yep, reminds me of the Dukakis Presidential Campaign manager appearing on shows as a campaign expert.
Shocking!
For years the gay advocates had a standard line about their contention that they were born that way, and hence should be embraces as no different than a racial minority because they had no choice. The line was "if it was a choice, why would anyone choose to be gay in our culture? It's too hard"
Now it's offensive for a comic to make a joke on those same lines. I guess it is a choice after all.
Estrich?
"The Closing of the American Mind" indeed.
Remember her all over TV.
