"Hey, man, I'm friends with Jimmy," Rock told NYT. "Jimmy's a great guy. And he didn't mean anything. A lot of people want to say intention doesn't matter, but it does. And I don't think Jimmy Fallon intended to hurt me. And he didn't."

quote:

Rock also discussed the incident in a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, dismissing the sketch as "bad comedy" and adding that Fallon "doesn't have a racist bone in his body." After Fallon tweeted a brief apology in May for his past behavior amid mounting public scrutiny, Rock said he called his pal to tell him that he loves him.

I’m glad Chris rock speaks for every black person in America. It’s not just him that was offended and Fallon should have thought of that.

It’s 90% of liberals that do blackface. Personally, I think it’s a stupid skit that doesn’t deserve the backlash that it gets.

Hell, if Chris Rock had to back pedal/ apologize for his racial jokes from the past, he would be fricked.


90% of his material is racial. He would not exist without it. And it was awesome.

Does this apply to everyone or just people that share political views?

I’m sure if a known conservative had done it he would be outraged, so I don’t really give a frick about his opinion.

Nobody even accused his bones of being racist. Nobody has racist bones. Bones just support people.

Life is so much more enjoyable when you aren't looking to get offended out of every little thing
