do u think this guy is just funny or he is racist?

As a standup comedy buff, I have to say Russel Peters is selectively good. His bit about his dad beating him was pretty good. A lot of his stuff is garbage, but some of his stuff is actually pretty funny.

i think carlos mencia delivers his material better when he does standup, but russell is okay.
then again carlos mencia does stand up for only 5 minutes during his show, and a comedy central half hour show once every 3 years...so yea. they both use their minority status to their advantage, i dont think theyre racist theyre just bein real.

*edit*
nvm i just remembered carlos mencia steals material from others.

Where's that video where Joe Rogan exposes Carlos?

soooo epic.

russel peters ftw

He's fyuking jokes

OMG i luv this guy, he's soo funny!

He actually makes all those race-related issues into funny stories. I've never been offended by his Chinese and Chinese people in Canada jokes at all Though his recent jokes has too much swear words...

He has very good presentation, which makes up for his jokes being very targeted, and therefore only funny to specific groups. In a way that makes him a good comedian, but in a way it's also a huge flaw as a comedian. Just look at George Carlin... he was able to offend EVERYONE

Someone's gonna get a hurt real bad, but im not gona say who.

dont be stupid, racism is singling out a minority. he does not, infact he has jokes about every nationality.

He's funny, wish I could find more of his stuff though.

I really like Russel Peters, I remember when he used to be Canada's best kept secret. Here's another guy with the same style, named sugar sammy:

Note the stage...and Russel's stage.

And another, if you're interested and understand

Code: Select all

true he cant be racist because he does jokes about every nationality even his own so technially he cant be racist. i like the one where chinese people try to get every cent from you and indian people try to keep every cent thats so true

w00t suger sammy hes good
