Is it racist of whites to hope that America produces nicer black people?
ROCK: Here’s the thing. When we talk about race relations in America or racial progress, it’s all nonsense. There are no race relations. White people were crazy. Now they’re not as crazy. To say that black people have made progress would be to say they deserve what happened to them before.
So, to say Obama is progress is saying that he’s the first black person that is qualified to be president. That’s not black progress. That’s white progress. There’s been black people qualified to be president for hundreds of years.
There have been smart, educated, beautiful, polite black children for hundreds of years.The advantage that my children have is that my children are encountering the nicest white people that America has ever produced. Let’s hope America keeps producing nicer white people.
You should see the comments being made at Gawker. There are guys that are virtually knobbing Chris Rock over these words, comparing him to Plato.
It’s a fair point Rock makes, but it’s a strawman. Whoever said blacks were making progress because they were getting smarter and more polite, and thus, more electable? No one.
From where I sit black progress, as defined by blacks, means more entitlements, affirmative action and the lowering of standards to meet black intellectual shortfalls. Black progress should mean less black people on welfare, more blacks graduating high school, less blacks committing violent crime.
I look at the Congressional Black Caucus and I see some members that are an embarrassment, intellectually, to any race. Corrine Brown’s presence in congress represents regress, not progress.
I see black culture devolving while continually being legitimized by liberal whites. I guess that can be characterized as progress, but it has nothing at all to do with blacks getting smarter and more polite. It has everything to do with the “nice white progressives” that America has produced. Let’s hope, for everyone’s sake, blacks included, that we stop making these “nice” Americans.
On another note, what made the Gawker article really worth my while was a comment dropped by a “not nice” American. He alerted everyone to a part of Rock’s interview that Gawker seemed to have overlooked. Perhaps it was because Rock was speaking about the typical Gawker reader, and he wasn’t being “nice.”
Rock says he doesn’t like playing concerts at colleges because they are too conservative –
Not in their political views — not like they’re voting Republican — but in their social views and their willingness not to offend anybody. Kids raised on a culture of “We’re not going to keep score in the game because we don’t want anybody to lose.” Or just ignoring race to a fault. You can’t say “the black kid over there.” No, it’s “the guy with the red shoes.” You can’t even be offensive on your way to being inoffensive.
Pull your pants up, get a job, speak English and we will get along just fine.
You guys should watch Bill Burr on Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. He talks about the new culture of the instantly offended. Stand up goes from “a bit” to a “statement” because if it’s funny-no matter what-someone somehow-is going to be personally offended by what is said on stage.
What a freaken crock of shit. Black progress is get smart enough to quit voting for the political party that’s got their boot on your throat. Notice the congressional black caucus was all for the amnesty plan. I’m sure that will do their constituents a world of good.

Rock would be NO PLACE without white people, particularly the honchos and the viewers of HBO, a cable network subscribed to mostly by WHITE PEOPLE.
Chris, If I must become more of a doormat to please you, I’m gonna have to see a little more.lawn jockey on your part. Now go shine your lantern, instead of cursing the whiteness.
When black people elect and re-elect a commie to the White House just because he’s black, and chose losers like Shrimpton to be their spokes mouths, nice time is over.
Here’s the original interview – I posted in the Bullpen a while ago but it hasn’t hit yet. Puts Rock in a very different light from some of the recent quotes attributed to him.

Let’s Hope America Produces Smarter Black People!
Sounds like Chrissy’s Pop needs to beat his ass for talking stupid shit again
Hey, Chris! When your people finally screw things up so bad that all hell breaks loose, it’s going to be no more Mr. Nice Guy. I’m going to do things to defend me and mine that will make the Visigoths hurl.
Take your ass to Ogden UT and lecture them on “being nice” bitch. They still talk about the Hi Fi Murders like it was yesterday. This isn’t new and isn’t bias.
But if you fuck with me I will shoot your ass.
Chris made a lot more sense when he still lived closer to the ground. He used to be a black man who used his brain. A rare talent.
Twenty+ years of soft living amoung the Hollyweird bubbleheads has turned him into a real twat.
Hey Chris, there are black folks and then there are ignorant fuckers like you!
Hey Diogenes, does ‘smarter black people’ qualify as the ultimate oxymoron?
I always like to quote an old Chris Rock bit, “black women do not like white men”.
Likewise, you ignorant pig-eyed sack of shit, bullshit spewing racist Obama ass-licker!
Rot in hell with sickle-cell!
0bama is NOT the first black person that is qualified to be president. He’s not qualified to do anything but loot and lie, and the fucking bastard is half fucking white. So, eat shit and die, Chris. You suck !
I SIMPLY do not CARE.
Nigs will nig and crackers will, well crack.
Liberalism is a DISEASE!
Fuck you Chris
Remember “Everybody hates you”
Tough crowd.
On average, blacks were always smart and are now getting smarter?
Whoa there Cinderella! By what measure?
‘Tough crowd” Hehehe. My kind of humor Corona!
Actually this whole thread needs to be sent to CNN & Mika Brzezinski, watch her head explode!
When America produces “a nicer Black person” we’ll chat. Until then, fuck off Chris.
How about, let’s just remove the “crazy”?
Five words discount this: Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. To act like this is unresoved or something new is silly. We have had this resolved for decades. It is the blacks like Eric Holder that want to claim that there is no discussion, and that this has not been discussed over the last 200 years. And when offered a discussion, Eric Holder does not accept.
History will make a shift when the uncivil culture will no longer have the ability to depend on entitlements, wreak havoc on those who’ve done for themselves, and then live in the stench of their generations long denial of self-responsibility, to only then be made painfully aware of these facts that have been made available all the while.
Well Chris, the way things are going, I think the nice streak is going to come to an abrupt end pretty soon. You can thank Obama, Holder, and all the other commie racists for that.
Janek Pietrzak was a nice White Marine who even married a beautiful black woman. I don’t think we need more “nice whites” or we will become extinct.

Also, didn’t 360,222 nice whites die helping to free black slaves?
Chris is a rock, it sits between his ears.
Chris Rock contends white people were crazy but now they’re getting better? Didn’t he establish himself as a comedian calling out ‘niggas’ for doing ‘crazy shit’ ?!
Put down the bath salts, Chris, and back up slowly. It will hit you real hard when you realize that obama as President has been major REgression for blacks in America.
And thanks for calling them blacks, I’m tired of that BS longer PC name.
Fuck Off Chris Rock!
CONTINUE on with your Obama ball hugging and rectum smooching.
This is the same bodyguard protected faggot who unleashed his armed entourage on Jason Mattera a while back wasn’t it? All while running his big fucking mouth about what a tough guy he is.

The Tea Party is harassed by the IRS and monitored by DHS as a dangerous, rightwing, fringe group but yet, somehow, tens of thousands of black commies engaging in a criminal conspiracy across social media across the country, looting stores, bashing people’s heads in with hammers isn’t a blip on the radar.
I have been staunchly pro-life since I graduated college. The last few years have really made me re-evaluate whether providing more abortions to prevent future Chris Rocks, Obamas, and Fergusons isn’t the right idea.
Crazy black people can rob, loot, commit arson and get invited to the White House so their crisis won’t go to waste.
If I had fucked up hair and big lips, I’d be pissed off too!
