Clint Eastwood is upset with the new breed of Hollywood looking past racial issues and not making fun of peoples differences:

Hollywood legend CLINT EASTWOOD laments the loss of old-fashioned humour in today’s society – insisting he should be able to tell jokes about nationality without fear of people branding him a “racist”. The Dirty Harry star, 79, is adamant that modern culture has become humourless, and accuses younger generations of spending too much time trying to avoid being offensive.  He says, “People have lost their sense of humour. In former times we constantly made jokes about different races. You can only tell them today with one hand over your mouth or you will be insulted as a racist.” “I find that ridiculous. In those earlier days every friendly clique had a ‘Sam the Jew’ or ‘Jose the Mexican’ – but we didn’t think anything of it or have a racist thought. It was just normal that we made jokes based on our nationality or ethnicity. That was never a problem. I don’t want to be politically correct. We’re all spending too much time and energy trying to be politically correct about everything.”

This old fart must be taking care of his bucket list.

    Most bigots dont think they are racist. By the way Clint, have you ever had any Black people, not spanish or jewish, in your movies? Thank you for giving me another reason not to support you. You are a legend but soon you will be in the grave old man.

  • JUDY

    The grave is calling for his ass any day.

  • joyce

    I think Clint is a brillant actor/director. But damn, he sounds like such an idiot.

    He’s getting ready to take a long nap anyway. But I did like his films…

  • Curtis

    Eye, Clint Eastwood’s wife, Dina Ruiz is half, Black & half Japanese. Her father was adopted by a Mexican family. Also one of Clint’s best friends was the late great Ray Charles. People need to chill out more about this racist shit.

  • Curtis

    Yeah, alright, I know some of yall gonna come back at me with this, “some of my best friends are…” You know what I’m talking about. My grandfather is 85 and he still makes stupid, off-color jokes, so what? There is more things to get upset about than a 79 year old man talking like this.

  • http://www.gravatar.com Re is excited to see Gambit (X-Men)!

    He enjoys making crude jokes. People are definitely speaking in politically correct language cause its scary. Who wants Al Sharpton knocking at your door?

    Oh, my mother in-law told me Al Sharpton was so disrespectful to her when he came to the hotel she works in (Ritz Carlton). Black power my ass…

    That sh*t wasn’t funny!

  • Doc

    some people use racist joke to show their racist mentality.

  • Whut??

    Yet another reason why McCain couldn’t be our President. White males around Clint’s age are still having flashbacks about the good ole’ days of Jim Crow.

  • josh

    At the end of the day, theres no difference between making a joke about someones skin colour than there is making a joke about someones weight or the way they dress. You cant say this dude needs to die if you’ve ever laughed at a joke about a fat person, because you’re just as bad. The person on the receiving end gets just as offended.

  • About it

    You’re old Clint — and no one wants to see an old man who never had any talent which is why all your films were about violence. You were just playin’ yourself. When you’re young, you can get away with that, but you can’t come with the goods cuz you never had ‘em.

  • Move Onmelvin_franks@hotmail.com

    I read how he and his good buddy Morgan Freeman (whom he puts in his films) are always joking around like twelve year old boys and calling names and shit. Folks getting put out by this just need to roll their eyes and get on with life.

  • renebug

    so clint, what was the white people’s joke?

  • apple dutchmaster

    Some of y’all may not like my comment but, I honestly do not think this man is racist. He has his opinions and views like everyone else. Plus if you ever look at any of his films, he showed people as they are. In his westerns, you can tell he has a high repsect for the American Indians. He made films with every walk of life. And I can’t speak for everyone, but I lable people too (i.e. Mary the crazy chick, or lil’-dick Ted).

  • Crazy Ass Rodney

  • thegreatone

    hold on aint Clint Eastwood wife is Dina Ruiz. Her father was of African-American and Japanese descent, and her mother of Irish, English and German descent. so if he wants to make racist jokes start with your wife first and see if she find it funny. also they have a mixed race daughter too would he be happy if someone say racist jokes to her.

  • songbird

    UMMM….I guess becuase the Good Ol’ was not sooo good for black folks!!!!…

  • Progressive Black Movement for the better future

    no one is saying you can’t say those things it just simply stupid to because it is offensive. and stop with that “oh his wife is …….” were all related in some way so, knock it off. point is its offensive, and it’s on you to suffer the consequences of you actions.

    RIGHT! Still waiting…..Waiting……No white people jokes? Why am I not surprised? TYPICAL PINK FOLKS. You gotta love them… :)

  • ms k

    Being that he is 79, I would think his version of good ole days would be the segregated times.Thats when white people could openly call us coons, monkey,ni****,boy and we had to accept that and smile.It seem like his failing mind can’t register the fact that we never found that funny,we just couldn’t express that in those times.The sad thing about this is that he looks gravely , and after 79 years he still haven’t digest the concept of that making humor of our lips, nose, and skin color is gruel ,demeaning, and down right disrespectful.People has died for the same thing that he call humor.SMH

  • TheGoodGood

    We’re just waiting for people his age and above to die off, this is why racism lasts, they don’t have anything else to fall back on… just making fun of people.. and they have the audacity to wonder why these people aren’t having it anymore..?

    Complete comedy.. he is already called out as a racist, he should just keep quiet.

  • turkishjamaican

    is it me or a is it that lot of white humans goin crazy lately….

  • lina

    I don’t understand him. Of course, if you say it in public or on national tv, yo ass is going to be labeled a racist. BUT he can do whatever he wants amongst friends, the majority of people are not always politically correct in private…that’s where it is. But hells no can you do that ish in public to the person’s face or ‘make a movie about it’ in case he’s interested, what a dumb ass question, NEXT

  • DR.FUNK

    He’s absolutely right.Jokes about ethnicity,religion,gender & race have become “ghettoized”.That is to say they are told by a certain group WITHIN that group.Some people-many people apparently- have an inferiority complex about whatever group they identify with and simply can’t take a joke.Nor can they deliver one.

  • DR.FUNK

    BTW-BOSSIP…feel free to get off Clint’s case.Just because he put that idiot Spike Lee in his place is no cause for you to hack at the man.

  • http://ccinsider.comedycentral.com/2009/02/26/stephen-colbert-is-not-a-race-coward/ White Guy

    He is right about Politically Correct humor being stifling to other types of humor. Just look at The Office, it replaces the laugh track with awkward looks into the camera when someone says something out of line. That shit gets tired and boring real quick. Most humor is based upon generalizing large groups of people and cultures, whether it’s racial or any other way of categorizing folks.

    I kinda get what he is saying. How many black comedians still make white jokes? Plus, Clint did just do Gran Torino which he played a bigot. Stop being so sensitive.

  • Jewel17

    You know Clint Eastwood got a kick out of calling the black actors in a scene “spooks” in Gran Torino.

    He just can’t accept Jose the Mexican or Sam the Jew living in/near his neighborhood (George Lopez and Steven Spielberg).

  • White Devil

    I like Clint Eastwoods movies and he seems like a smart person who knows something about history. That is why I don’t understand why he can’t see what is wrong with racist jokes.

    The problem is the history of our country and the way that minorities, especially blacks have been treated. A lot of times guys put each other down and it’s cool between freinds. But racist humor doesn’t come out of love. Most racial jokes are told when a person of the target ethnicity is not around.
    In his latest old movie, Gran Torino, this racist old white guy turned out to have a heart of gold and be a good guy. What they don’t show is that 40 years ago guys like that were lynching people and blowing up little girls. That would have made it harder to laugh at his racism.

  • http://Mr.K Mr. K

    HE MUST HAVE MISSED THE MEMO…ONLY BLACK PEOPLE CAN MAKE FUN OF OTHER NATIONALITIES NOW.

  • Valerie

    I agree with Clint Eastwood. First off, we do it anyway. A lot of black people especially comedians love to speak on or joke about other races, but are quick to call someone a racist if something is said about them. I would appreciate if all races said what is really on their mind instead of trying to hide how they really feel. Then I can choose to associate with them, or not.

  • RiRi

    What old-timers like Eastwood fail to recognize or admit about so-called political correctness is that respect, and not a deficiency of sense of humor, is what drives people in our society to make concerted efforts not to stereotype others and use racial slurs. I wish they would be honest and say that they wish they could go back to the days when they could call Sam a Jew and Jose a Mexican to their faces without hearing public outcry and having civil rights organizations all in that ass. It seems to me that discriminating against someone because of superficial things like ethnicity and skin color, and masking that disgust with jokes, is simply inappropriate, while boycotting the movies of someone who clings to inaccurate historical and contemporary views makes perfect sense to me.

  • Yourgrandpappystank

    Just because Clint is married to a mixed woman and had black people in his films means he has the right to tell people to lighten up and take racist jokes!

    White people kill me with that stop being so sensible crap.. I think your ass would be sensitive too if the shyt has been goin on for 400 years! Fuc* you! Im sensitive and proud of it! First of all Clint is not a comedian, comedians THAT WHAT THEY DO TALK ABOUT EVERYDAMN BODY! White folks always mention Chris Rock.. well idiots CR talks about black way more than he does whites, next time you sitting your white ass in his audience i think you should pay attention to that fact!! Chris Rocks talk about blacks way damn more than he does whites and i think since its been brought up i will complain about that fact… CR, why the hell you talk about us more than then white folks!!!

WHILE YOU FEEL FREE TO MAKE FUN OF BLACK, CHINESE AND MEXICAN PEOPLE, THE MOMENT ANYONE SAYS ANYTHING REMOTELY FUNNY Y’ALL THAT ALLUDES TO YOUR RACE, YOU PULL THE RACE CARD AND START CRYING FOUL LIKE A BABY. YOU HAVE BY FAR DEVELOPED SOME OF THE LOWEST SELF-ESTEEMS AMONG PEOPLE AND NEED TO DENIGRATE OTHERS, CREATE IDEALIST NOTIONS/FALLACIES TO ELEVATE YOURSELVES AND VALIDATE YOUR HUMANITY. KNOCK THAT DARN CHIP OFF YOUR SHOULDERS AND STOP THINKING THAT THE WORLD OWES YOU SOMETHING BECAUSE OF SLAVERY. LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE; OUR BASIC HUMAN HISTORY ON THIS PLANET IS THAT OF CONQUEST AND SUBJUGATION. CONQUER OR BE CONQUERED. IF YOU CAN’T UNDERSTAND THAT, GO BACK TO HIGH SCHOOL. I’M SURE MOST OF YOU DROPPED OUT BECAUSE YOU WERE BUSY GETTING PREGNANT, SELLING DRUGS, GOING TO PRISON, BEING MAD AT THE MAN, AND WHATEVER OTHER EXAMPLES OF SELF-INFLICTED POVERTY AND STAGNANCY YOU ARE PUTTING ON YOUR SELVES. BECAUSE YOU ARE LETTING MERE WORDS THAT ARE NOT EVEN MEANT TO BE RACIST WOUND YOU, YOU HAVE BECOME THE EASIEST TARGET TO KNOCK DOWN.

  • Diamante

    wow CaribChica so slavery was ok. well maybe somebody should “conquer” your ass. Im thinkin the police like they did that 15 year old. You are clearly retarded not because you think wjite ppl are allowed to make racist jokes but because u think we were just “conquered” and need to get over it. Well some ppl rape lil girls but i guess thats ok to you because those girls should’ve learned how to “conquer” ur a mess. Go ask ur mother why she didn’t have an abortion and instead added YOUR ASS to the “ignorant black ppl” that rum rampant in the world

  • Good Intentions

    Black people were once enslaved, true, but we were NEVER slaves. There is a difference between being enslaved and being a slave. Alot of us can’t comprehend this.

  • krissy

    We are no longer in slavery times but we have not gotten that far either, last time I checked we just got a president who happens to be 1/3 black and it’s 2009…so that change is rather slow, and even so we still have racist bastards like the KKK, or racist ass police officers beating down anyone, not to mention Katrina and how black people were being referred to as immigrants or hoodlums, u name it…so as much as people want to believe we have gotten so far, we really are just making tiny steps forward…and racism will not just die away, so as disappointed as Clint Eastwood might be in regards to having to be politically correct, oh well, I think that is taking the necessary steps toward progression…if he or any other idiot who agrees with his statement does not understand that notation, tell me your ethnicity so we can conjure up some jokes, and I gurantee u that u wouldn’t be laughing:)

  • tj

    Gran Torino was the most racist thing I’ve seen since “Birth of a Nation”. This man clearly has issues. It was basically like all these immigrant groups are f-ed up and they need a white man to save them, and while he does he will debase them just to make sure they acknowledge and maintain their inferiority. He was saying the most racist things I’ve ever heard yet somehow he was supposed to be lovable. Don’t get me started on the unrealistically callous (yet not-racist new generation he was trying to attack) or the illogical fear that the gangsters had of some old ass white man. I mean really they would have shot him and been done with it.

  • Suzisuzuki

    In response to CaribChica’s comments – you have the nerve, you are NOT a black woman so stop faking it! You are another racist white bitch who like to hide behind internet blogs saying degrading comments on black websites like bossip.com because you know you’d get your racist ass whipped in person. I can tell by your comments that you’re one of those wanna be, lip-inflated, plastic pump ass, fake wanna be cool white chicks who hate black people but would jump a black man’s johnson as soon as he slapped you in the face with it. And when it’s time to take him home to your racist family, you’d hide him like the police was chasing him. Get off this website, your fake ass don’t belong on here. As for Clint Eastwood, I love his work, but he’s a dinasour in an era that’s changing at a speed and in a way that he and others like him will never be able to keep up with. But he’s still cool with me – his comments may be a bit understood, but it’s cool. He’s old school and that’s how some of them think. Even when they’re not racist.

  • Sugar

    No, Clint the Racist. Only you and your friends thought it was funny. Sam the Jew and Joe the Mexican didn’t particularly like being made fun of but you and your friends were too clueless and/or cold-hearted to care.

  • Indigogg

    Clint is right.

  • *Treasure*

    To some there is nothing more satisfying than having some mean spirited fun while harboring animosity towards a certain ethnic group for laughs. His comments about this being normal are offensive as well as distasteful.

    Clint is in his final days of normalcy, considering dementia lies in wait, because of his ailing, frail, geriatric state. I am surprised he can remember the good old days of bigotry.

  • Indigogg

    The NRA and harmless jokes have absolutely nothing to do with the violence and racism continually perpetrated by asian, black, hispanic and wasp (white to some of you) thugs, gangs, nations or whatever the common name is today.
    As an example, rap music is more of a threat to black culture and progress than the right to bear arms or any harmless racial jokes. Did George Jefferson calling people “honky” and “whitey” harm race relations? I don’t hear anyone protesting black comedians continually talking about white folks! Some of you need to quit being so ‘sensitive’ with jokes and try that sensitivity with your mate and children. To be taken seriously, you first have to wear pants (britches to you country mofos) that fit correctly! Quit dragging your pants like you’re wearing hand-me-downs or waiting to take it up the ass. The last thing our culture needs to bear worried about is harmless jokes…..and quit getting high and drunk in front of your kids.

    I think this old white man has a point….Yes our ethnicity and culural identity is sacred to us as black people. but we make racist jokes everyday and consider it the norm….then we want to cry racism whens someone else makes a joke about black people. I have friends of just about every ethnicity under the sun and i truly believe that being able to laugh at our differences in culture/ethnicity is one VERY powerful way to overcome the racism in our society and bring people together.

    @ CaribChica

    I like what you stated because it is absolutely true. And anyone who says it is not is just mad because she is probably referring to you! We live in a different age and time now people, and I understand that slavery was very hurtful to all, but we must be the bigger people through all of this and move on! Not every white person in the world is out to “get” you, hell, black people are more likely to be hurt by their own people versus another race! It’s a damn shame you can’t say anything to certain black people, but I just keep to myself, observe from a distance, and let them act like the ignorant people that they are….

    Maybe one day the ignorance will stop.

  • Huh?

    What makes me upset more about Clint Eastwood is now that he looks like that he is married to an ethnic woman (with black ancestry) but when he was young and nice looking he only dated/married blondes. That’s the real problem that needs to be addressed.

  • Nikki

    I know I’m about to get talked about but black people are the main reason why people can’t make the jokes they want to make. The instant somebody says something even remotely prejudiced and we got Rev. Al and Jesse ready to go to war. Meanwhile black people are some of the most prejudiced people on the planet. I can’t count how many times I’ve heard a black person say something derogatory about white people to a white person and think it was ok. But if that white person responds with a remark of their own, they’re racist and the black person wants to fight. I’m not saying racism is dead becasue it’s far from it but I think alot of black people need to look up the definition of racism and then they will realize, it doesn’t apply to every situation. Just because some white person doesn’t like you, it doesn’t mean they are racist and trying to hold you back. It could be because they just don’t like yo ass, no black people in general. And if they do decide to tell you how much they hate black people, like you hear us scream about them every damn day, then respect it cause they tell it instead of sneakily trying to do underhanded things to you.
    I’m not mad at Clint one little bit. And I’m nopt going to jump on the bandwagin and start calling him a racist because of that comment. I personally understand where he’s coming from. Maybe it’s because my friends look like the rainbow. But it could also be because I have the ability to take a joke and blow my top because it’s a black joke.

    Clint eastwood is an excellent filmmaker, but i just realized something, Those were mostly n*ggas he was killing in those Dirty Harry movies, WTF?

    I saw his latest movie Grand Torino and the gangmembers were asian (red bandana bloods) and Messycans, the blacks in the movie were just ignorant n*ggas standing on a corner talkin’ sh*t until a gun was pulled on them by Clint.

    Probably because all of Clint’s racist jokes would be about African American (Black) people! He’s not slick……

    lol thats hecka funny..i’m latin and get referred to as a white b*tch all the time. but let me call a black girl a black b*tch and i’m racist or she tryin to fight. Black folks wanna cry oppression and all this shit but they the first ones trying to oppress people. Tellin folks what they can and cant say but they get to say whatever the f*ck they want.

    That old fool can make as many racist jokes as he wants. Just start at home with his hispanic wife, then look in a mirror and make one about limeys (English, Irish). His dad was a migrant worker and mom worked in a factory. Just what you would expect!
    To “Bored” This blog is about a rich white actor (NOT YOU) who wants to insult those that would pay to see him perform. Once does not bite the hand that feeds him.

    I think his comment had a lot to do with his last movie Gran Torino.. basically he was a racist in the movie who made those type of jokes. idk maybe his movie got some criticism because of that and he felt the need to make that comment.

    Clint is not being a racist, and what he is saying is true. I am a Black man, and not just in the Black community, but overall, we are becoming way too politically correct as a society. Yes, you do have racism in America, and every where else, but some times, a joke is just a joke.
