Lol @ peter russel

[ScimitarXEdge]

I'm not against comedians; and some of the stuff Russel Peters says is actually pretty accurate. But Toramana you seem perfectly at ease with satire against other ethnicities; why do you get upset when it's done to Pashtuns?

[Toramana]

SE, sorry---

[ScimitarXEdge]

no don't apologize; it's ok, people shouldn't take themselves seriously all the time. But I recall a satire regarding Pashtuns was being aired in Pakistan, and you were adamant about protesting it. I mean, it's ok to be who you are, but it's not ok to project hypocritical views don't you think?

[Laila]

Lol @ peter russel

Russel Peters *ahem ahem* is a very good comedian....except when the crude comments kick in.

[IamDZJ]

i don't like this guy. i don't see why it's okay for him to make such remarks about other people while anyone else joking about the same things would probably get his behind grilled by people and the media.
'o he is a comedian..' so what?? he charges you for listening to him insult people.

[Karachi]

I agree, also he should try change his material

[Amir al Ghaznavi]

I dont understand the apprehension about a comedian. Their job is to talk shiit and be funny. Theyre allowed to be crude, vulgar even racist. The stage is the only envirinment for that

Ive been workin on a stand up bit for months and im tellin ya its hard. I respect russell peters alot. Toronto stand up...
