The fact that you people are defending his argument while trying to say that "in context" he's right, makes me sick.
We're not defending his argument. I think it's "impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do," especially the morally reprehensible thing.

I am not defending people who seriously believe this. I am defending the fine tradition of Juvenalian Satire -_-*

And if the sentence had said "white" instead of "black" would it not be any more morally reprehensible? No. It would still be heinous, we just wouldn't be as angry. I'm sure that most of us here understand that white folks are just as criminal as black folks. We're all evil.

edit: I just read another post closer. This isn't satire at all, but something to do with absurdity. If it was a written piece of literature, as I always tend to think of things as, then maybe it could be considered satire. Pardon my ignorance of literary terms, I'm only a second year.
