Yeah, I've seen that one before, but I do have a small problem with the accuracy of it.

Small step to the side? I would step to the side to make room for anyone who got into the elevator, regardless of what race/gender they were.

Oh, and grabbing their purse? Women will do that whenever a guy comes close, no matter what race they are.

Stupid white *****? How does he figure she's stupid? Educated people can also be racist.

And I'm pretty sure anyone would get scared if some random person yelled "BOO!" in a normally quiet setting!

I think that you may have missed the whole joke.

It was just pointing out subtle things people do in response. In no way would every person on the entire planet have the exact same response to things like this but I still found it funny.

Nah I saw the joke. It was just stereotypical and a bit racist in itself. Usually I find satire funny, but this one missed the mark a little.

I am going to have to agree with Kulla on this one.

I dont see anything racist in it, Just a video to *report* common racism.

It would be so great if someday we'd find a way to eliminate prejudices. If we judge people on their color, it's probably mean our brain is very low developped.

I doubt you can honestly deny that you get a bit of feeling when you see a black person you haven't met before, like a scareed feeling or something. XD Well not scared but ugh.. a stereotypical thought or something. XD

I do and I hate it. **** you society for putting this prejudice in me.

as long as theres 1 racist person in the world..there will always be racisism. cause its like a virus which spreads on society.

i sometimes have thoughts rasism and stuff like that (thinking the word would be predujus or something?) but only because i feel like their gonna try to force their beleifs on me. just like gays, i dont mind being in a room with someone like that but its in my mind that if they do something "weird" im running lol. just like in the video i think (didnt watch whole thing)

Unlike everyone else that seemed to comment, I thought it was funny. It was meant to be a joke and everyone is just nit picking at it. Where's the fun in that?

Stop bickering about how it was so racist. It is a funny video, and it should be talked about as such.

I laughed at it, it was pretty funny. I'll have to show this to my friends.

Cause while it was a joke it seemed like there was also a serious point behind it. If that's true or not i dunno..down to peoples own personal opinion i suppose.

I found it a bit stereotypical and can't claim I've ever seen it happen. Nor do i really find myself intimidated by black people either. XD If i may make a suggestions tho; They might want to higher a bigger person next time. That woman would of kicked his little ***.
