Where do you stand?! Would you be offended if you saw someone dressed as obama or OJ or samuel jackson if they were in full costume including makeup? I’m not talking about dressing up as a random “black guy” I am talking about impersonating someone famous. This also isnt being done for a joke its being done in seriousness, its not ridicule at all, its for the costume…
face makeup/paint Offensive or Acceptable? If you voted, why do you feel that way?
Do it I was going to dress up as a black osama bin laden, so when people asked who I was I could say Osama Bin Robbin.
one of the options should be “depends on where you are” 
are you balck
are you asian
I dressed as “Tyrone Biggums” aka dave chappelle as a crackhead a few years ago, but i did not paint my face.
no… italian.
Osama Bin Eatin? (fried chicken)
how come you are not banned?
RACIST AND UN-AMERICAN!!! BAN THIS MAN!!
thers nothing racist about it, its comical. grow up.
edit: it spawns from this 
poll is private because I want honest and unbiased opinions…
you implied that black people commonly steal things, how is that not racist?
And it is not even funny
umm, have you read the police blotter lately?, black man, steals…, black man caught stealing, black man found hiding with stolen goods, black man shot for stealing, etc…
sorry man but its in black and white every day in the paper.
just because it is in the paper that way, does not mean that it is not racial profiling.
yes i agree
but thats the retard for ya, i dunno
Was there a pun intended with the black and white thing?
The reason I ask is every year there seems to be some huge uproar about someone who impersonates another race… sometimes it is racist and should be blown up because the costume has poor intentions, other times I think that the costume is done in good taste but people still blow it way out of proportion and make it out to be something its not.
it wasnt implying anything grow up.
Its a costume, its like if someone dressed up as howdy doody would that imply they have wooden balls?
Its a costume, you could dress up as a pink batman or newman in a dress it dosent imply anything.
Infact its Racist to suggest it implys anything it was YOUR brain that mad the coy assosiation.
didnt beck just dress up as lil wayne?
lol nah, I personally don’t find it offensive in the least bit but I’m sure there are a lot of people that would (which is what really makes it funny, imo). I thought about going as obama this year, if purely for the reaction, but decided against it. God forbid you break down in a rough neighborhood
