No, it's a racist stereotype and wholly inappropriate. There are non-white members who participate on this site, so maybe you could make just a bit more effort to show others some modicum of respect.

we are all well aware that there are "non-white" members here, but its funny, racist, but still funny…I will argue till I die that stereotypes come from the truth, plain and simple...Dark just said what most of us have been thinking since the first time we saw Pimp Destro, and i am sure he's not the first to say it...and if that is not what you come to this site to talk about, then don't talk about it with us, or anything else that you wouldn't DARE ever talk about...relax a little, take the tree out of your bum, and join in a good chuckle...laughing is by far much more enjoyable than being offended by every little thing that comes your way...that by the way is also the truth!

it's good to know that not everyone in this country is uptight...yet

and besides, i don't know too much about Destro, but when i was a kid i always thought he was black, bald head, deep voice, weapons dealer, and a white chic (Baroness) always wanting his "fixed crotch"...THEN Hasbro puts him in a pimp outfit!...he couldn't be more black unless you put Roadblocks head on him...but thats me just stereotyping...

I don't find humor in bigotry.

Well, you can be wrong all you like, but stereotypes are based on ignorance.

That doesn't make it any more appropriate.

Again, I don't find humor in bigotry. If you do, that's your business, but you can expect to be called on it when you express it publically around people you don't know very well. It's not funny, not even a little, and there's absolutely no reason for it, not unless you're deliberately trying to be hurtful.

And your, "take the tree out of your bum," response to my politely suggesting a more respectful manner says a hell of a lot more about you than it does about me.

Exactly, stereotypical, as in dressed in the outrageous attire found in exploitation films. Simply saying he "looks like a pimp" would have been more than sufficient.

that's fine by me...

so we come to the conclusion that:

A. thinking a comparison between a black pimp and Leopard Destro is funny makes a person racist

and

B. thinking a comparison between a black pimp and Leopard Destro is NOT funny makes a person uptight

I do, so I guess it turns out by that logic that I must be a racist...

again, this must imply that I am, indeed, a racist for even suggesting that you might be lame for being bothered by something (that only a racist would chuckle at) funny...

if it makes you feel any better, I am actually finding THIS whole exchange quite humorous also...what does that make me?...(I must be an IDIOT for leaving that wide open like that, plus a bazillion other reasons)
