On his Web site, Chang is unapologetic, and promises that more games — Hoodopoly, Hiphopopoly, Thugopoly and Redneckopoly — are coming soon.

"It draws on stereotypes not as a means to degrade, but as a medium to bring together in laughter," Chang maintains, adding, "If we can't laugh at ourselves ... we'll continue to live in blame and bitterness."

This guy should do well selling these on the internet.

I think it would be a riot! When I heard about it, I thought it would make a pretty good Christmas gift!

True. With the new Politically Correct dictatorship in this country, if you're not living in self love and self inflicted misery, there's something wrong with you! And then you should blame it one everyone else to be cured!

Of course not. Nor will it have amuch, if anything, to do with actual "rednecks," as they are called by those who seek to degrade them. It will be about white middle-class suburbia. To these liberals, that is the same thing.

Where can I buy a copy of Ghettopoly?

If they're calling in the PC police - nowhere! They'll be burned at the local square. Those who are found with them in their possession will be severely punished.

I read this in the local rag today, and thought it was hilarious! The games sound like they'd be fun!

Some people are just too "sahnsatave"!

[cyborg]

too "sahnsatave"!

Mike Savage posts on FR after all!!!

[Joe Bfstplk]

If the objectors want to get the games off the shelves, I suggest that they buy them.

[GeronL]

I'd buy redneckopoly!

"You got yo whole neighborhood addicted to crack. Collect $50."

LOL

[GeronL]

try an internet search, it said he has a website

If this is the real David Chang at this forum (scroll down 1/2-way), he is definitely not going to be intimidated. I think you can still order Ghettopoly directly from him.

[wheelgunguru]

If you want to buy it, go to http://www.ghettopoly.com/

Not from this certified country redneck. Before we laugh at others, we must learn to laugh at ourselves.

"Before we laugh at others, we must learn to laugh at ourselves."

Chang agrees with you. He refers to his father as just another "dumb chink" with a restaurant.

Sigh..



Didn't even take a day to cave in.

I'm a white guy looking at $40 billion in Great Society programs down the drain.

Shouldn't the people squandered that money be hed accountable?

I want my White Reparations®!

Pay back Whitey!

So you want other whites to pay your White Reparations? If you think that $40 billion was solely on black people, then you've lost your damned stupid and slow mind. If this is what you really think, you've bought a lie.
