White People's Choice Awards

We want opportunities! Why are we just now protesting racism in Hollywood? Because we've run out of real things to protest! Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rhianna's panties: I wasn't invited! Is Hollywood racist? You see all these writers and producers and actors? They don't hire blacks! They are the nicest people in the world...they're liberals!

The movie Rocky takes place in a world where white athletes are as good as black athletes! Rocky is science fiction!

Everything is not about sexism! Everything is not about racism!

Chris Rock opened the Academy awars last night with this monologue:


Roger L. Simon at PJ Media took exception to Chris's comments about cops shooting blacks:

Okay, I admit Academy membership skews ridiculously white and the ratio should be fixed. But is this a national catastrophe? Aren't there thousands of higher priorities? How about fixing racist nonsense like Chris Rock's notably unfunny joke about making the memorial section of the Oscars about cops shooting black people? C'mon, Chris, you and everybody else with an IQ in triple digits know the real problem for black people in our country, the real Tragedy with a capital T, is epidemic black-on-black violence in many of our cities. If it weren't for the cops, it would be worse. We could have our own private Syria. How about facing reality and talking about that? (I know -- not PC.)

So, yes, I did catch a little of the ceremony intermittently while multi-tasking, Chris' opening monologue and, as luck would have it, the appearance of our vice president to remind us of that other epidemic, sexual assault. (No mention of Rolling Stone on that one. As I said, wall-to-wall moral narcissism.)
