I suppose that there is something to be said for the fact thatthe cracker-asses weren't being hanged from trees by the niggers, rather the other way around.
I think that we have reached a point in the South West (and I recognise that it is not the same in the North of England) where colour is of no more interest than hair colour. Within my group of friends and acquaintances, with one exception, we make jokes about the black chaps' skin tone in the same way as about the ginger bloke's hair or Benji's glasses.
I think it is all healthy and has grown from the fact that we are all friends and we don't really see the problem.
If Eddie (a randomly chosen black acquaintance - he is African and a very nice chap, although, being African, his accent becomes indecipherable when he is pissed) was allowed to take the piss out of me for my being a long haired idiot, yet there was some taboo whereby I couldn't laugh at him when he got hit by the cyclist who genuinely didn't see him in the dark, it'd be odd.
We are all friends and that is all there is to it.
I am rambling, but I feel that the whole white pride / black pride / positive discrimination thing is arse. I have friends who are white and friends who are black and, equally, there are white and black people who I don't get on with and I don't have to feel guilt because I don't happen to like a black chap I know.
Americans are very silly.
