No one gives a fvck. It's funny, it's meant to be a parody, not really accurate to the littlest detail. Gosh...

I really like the video though. It's funny as hell. :D

apparently someone gave a fvck, because the text was subsequently changed in the video aired on mtv.

I don't think it's sad. If it was a video, lets just say making fun of some japanese character and they put korean text instead, would it matter? no. the only reason you care is because of your background

dang... you'd call him a white trash?

i'd have to think about that for a sec.
'cause when i think of white trash... i see no talent, ignorant, low education, no work ethics bumm.

i guess some of that fit him... some don't.

Heh I for one love the guy...just listening to his songs makes me laugh.

And yes, the main reason people care about anything is because it affects them. How many non-asians are usually upset when they constantly recycle asian actors in roles of various nationalities? I've seen the same person portray an american indian, a korean store owner, and a japanese yakuza member. It's all a matter of perspective.

It offends me that my people are tossed in the same basket as Usama Bin Laden's people just because we look alike....

The differences between our peoples are far greater than between americans and europeans... and we have been persecuted by them since before the first african was brought in the states as slaves, the first invasion of India by them was around 1020~ AD... yes... nearly a millenia ago...

Ponder on that if you will...
