Saw the creator, MacGruder, interviewed this morning on the CBS Sunday Morning show. Says he is not the "angriest black man" but is probably among the top 5.
What a gig!! Stickin' it to the "man" while they pay you for the privilege of being skewered on a daily basis...
Basically, the guy is a caricature of everything he criticizes.
Yeah I saw that too. Came to one conclusion; The Boondocks is probably the only strip today were blatant racism is "acceptable". Acceptable because it`s shoved right in your face and if you don`t like it tough. Let`s see how long a strip would last that says everthing MacGruder says but with the words black and white replaced with each other.. "Jesus was white"..ho ho ho. Yeah OK. Probably using even the word "white" would be enough to get a white cartoonist banned for life. This MacGruder is a douche just like his buddy Shelton "Spike" Lee, and the media is either terrified or pushing the racism of both. Terrified because they don`t want to get tagged with the "R" word or accepting because they want that racism promoted. Me, I don`t care, I`ll say it... MacGruder is a racist just as extreme as any KKK punk azz out there and he needs a good swift kick in his cojones. "Angry black man" yeah ok, bulls**t.. the guy is a racist, plain and simple.
