Got this in an email and thought was clever but didn't know if was offensive or not, if so I appoligse and please remove this post! I am also interested in what you think of this. Thanks

This what I received...

This was written by a black guy in Texas.....so funny.....what a great
sense
of humor and creativity!!!

When I born, I black, when I grow up, I black, when I go in sun, I black,
when I cold, I black, when I scared, I black, when I sick, I black, and
when
I die, I still black.
You white folks....when you born, you pink, when you grow up, you white,
when you go in sun, you red, when you cold, you blue, when you scared, you
yellow, when you sick, you green, when you bruised, you purple, and when
you
die, you gray.
So who you are callin' colored folk's ???

Definately not offensive. Seen this before on a t-shirt, and thought it was hilarious. Don't know who actually wrote it.
