I always thought I looked like a white Nick Cannon.

Now I know that's true. :eek:

hilarious how people cry about shit like this when certain people do it, but when dave chappelle does it as chuck taylor everyone just laughs about it.

That is the point though. When a comedian does it, and is funny, people are okay with it. George Carlin has a joke about using the word ******. He even calls Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor ******s. But, it is funny and Carlin already had a reputation about not giving a shit about being politically correct. Nick Cannon has a reputation for not being funny and having heart attacks from banging Mariah Carey too many times.

I have no problem with black face and I'd rather see no one give a damn about any of it. Since that's impossible however, I don't mind seeing him take crap for it.
