You've got a point, but in the seventies (and earlier) it was really all for laughs. Blacks were the butt of jokes, too, but it was all in good fun.

Which is why I loved Richard Pryor. He could mock both blacks and whites in a manner they could laugh at it. They would crucify Pryor today for a lot of his material.

Pryor had a really foul mouth.

If libs could get inside our heads they'd be amazed at how we really feel about such things. Sadly, they're not even curious.
