I find him slightly entertaining, but only watch him because he comes after Conan when I am to lazy to find something else to watch. I will say it. Yes, he is racist and I know it. Having grown up in a very diverse community I don't know why he has the lay it on at all. It is annoying. You'd never catch any of the 'other' guys on at the same time doing it.

 

BTW- Conan is my favorite!

Before he became a big name, I would hear him on the Bob and Tom show on the radio, and he was always fine, always funny, but since he got his own shows, and now the talk show he has been getting worse and worse about the racism stuff. I always thought he was cool till I saw him on one of his shows, then it was all over for me.

He never struck me as a racist, and I do like some of the low brow humor on his show....especially his alcoholic mother. The media has clearly allowed a tolerance of racism by minorities. Which is why I like Tosh.0, he cuts no slack to anyone.

 

BTW, I'm no racist and hate anyone who is. Except for Pakis, I hate those guys. hahaha!

It never really bothers me, comedians for the last few years have been exploiting racism for comedy, because it is just socially shocking. IMHO a little humor in such a serious subject isn't a bad thing. He definitely isn't my favorite, but he doesn't strike me as racist.

 

Other comedians that I can think of with racist humor:

Dave Chappelle and Carlos Mencia

Lopez was much funnier when he was just getting started in standup. I remember laughing as I listened to him on the Five O'clock Funnies on AM radio many years ago. But yeah, as soon as he starts rambling on about "La Raza", I turn the channel now.
