Blazing Saddles was on last night but I couldn't stand to watch it 'cause it was the PC version where the N word was edited out!

I believed that Mel Brooks and the marvelous black actors as well as the Brooks ensemble cast had finally put the N word to rest. But Alas, the PC crowd can't take a joke!!!

The whole point of Blazing Saddles is the absurdity of racism. With “Ni” bleeped out, the purpose is defeated. Other than that, King Kong’s likeness was inspired by a poster depicting the German military as monsters. Germans, I believe are White.

Yup, the PC crowd doesn’t realize how Blazing Saddles really put things in perspective.

Everyone was a target. That’s equality.
