I think it all comes down to intent. Look, if it's not cool to make a joke about a minority, then it's also not cool to make a similar joke about a majority -- you have to apply the same standards to all people. But people are funny... they do funny things and say funny things, regardless of race,

Tarantino - 18 films. So why was KILL BILL sold as "The Fourth Film by Quentin Tarantino". Having one's name attached to a film as a producer, executive producer, associate producer or even screenwriter does not infer that person "made" it. Nor does it even infer that they had anything to do wit
