Oh Barry - I have talked about Russell Peters in the past. I absolutely love the guy - it wouldn't have mattered if it was white - I have enjoyed whites mocking Indian accent as well such as The Simpsons.
I recently watched a Hispanic guy, Gabriel Iglesias make fun of Indian accent and even though his accent wasn't great I still enjoyed it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZISzU2sQ5s Or this - http://youtu.be/n4BpwQZBQDw If Judy, Ann, Raunchy, Emily were to protest I will request them to back off. I'm glad you were able to rise above your paranoid, delusional, emotional stunted ness to contribute here - bravo !!!!
