A black person wrapped in heavy iron chains is recovered from the bottom of a lake in Louisiana by the police. One of officers looks at his partner and says: Typical. They always steal more than they can carry.
This makes me uneasy. Are you making a joke about his death?
The joke is about a dumb black guy who's greedy, who was going to steal stuff but can't because he can't swim.
It seems like there are several racial stereotypes all within this one joke. Just because some black people can't swim and are thieves doesn't mean all are, the same could be said for any race of people. Getting to the bottom of the crime should be the priority.
It's all a lie that there's something wrong in this joke.
You don't think stereotyping people is wrong? How would you like it if people stereotyped you?
