Lauls skämt?

Robert Laul har blivit censurerad, och eftersom ingen av de vanligtvis stabila källorna avslöjat skämtet så antar jag att det gällde det här:

A black man and his son are on an airplane going across the ocean when they hear the captain's voice coming over the speakers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid I have some bad news. One of our engines has gone out. We still have 3 working fine, but in order to make it across the ocean, we will have to dump all the luggage.

It will be picked up by boats and returned to the airport where you can pick it up. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Well, then about 15 minutes later, the captain comes on again. "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid I have some more bad news.

We just lost another engine. Since we already dumped the luggage, we will now have to drop people.

You will be given floating devices and will be picked up immediately by a boat and taken safely to shore.

To be fair, we will do this in alphabetical order. 'A' is for African American. All African Americans, please raise your hands.

Well, hearing! this, the little black boy started to raise his hand. His father pushed his hand down and said, "No son, keep it down!"

When no one raised their hands, the captain said, "Okay, fine, let's move on to the letter 'B'. 'B' is for black. All blacks, raise your hands."

Again, the little black boy starts to raise his hand, and his father stops him again.

The captain comes on once more, and says, "Well then, I guess we'll move on to 'C'. 'C' is for Colored. All colored people, raise your hands." The little black boy starts to raise his hand, and his father pushes it down and tells him no.

"But dad!" he says, "We are African American, we are black, and we are also called colored. Why won't you let me raise my hand?" His father says, "No son, today, we is Niggers. Those Mexicans are going before us!"

Sådant borde självcensureras på att det helt enkelt inte är roligt.
