    The thing which makes Dave Chappelle BRILLIANT is that his materials are thought provoking. He does not have to swear to make people laugh. He is an exception.

    This performance made me a Chappelle fan. So simple, several laugh triggers. But in the end, when you really come to think about it, really think and see the world in it, it sure makes you want to cry. But it's so tragically absurd you can't cry, so you laugh!

    Living in Compton, CA...watched it and think of Sun Ja Do, Korean merchant who shot Latasha Harlins in their store in LA area. Girl had her juice but the owners mother thought she had stolen it and aimed a large caliber at her and accidentally pulled a modified trigger and girl fell dead....My experience here is he's a comedian telling a story from our real life experiences in the hood...they come to make money off poor and minority people but some still do not trust their customer base to be nice and smile as we enter. Don't be suspicious and stop following our people in your store or we'll try finding another, nicer, Korean or Asian American. Welcome to our world. ...comic relief delivered....Last line....true. Cops see us too the same way as they do sometimes. Nailed it to the wall, Dave Chappelle in this clip from his early days...He still knows the struggle but makes it funny so others will think more about the truth they just laughed with him about. Irony is comedy all day some say....most are Comedians. LOL Peace to all.

    Probably because you're looking too hard for it instead of laughing with it.
    I'll point out one thing though, when the thing he said about not being the one to make generalizations, but working in averages and percentages, that spoke volumes.
    If you DO want to see him making profound statements, watch his Inside The Actors Studio interview, he's very intelligent.
    Also at one point they show a few of his jokes and they point out the significant themes in them.

      I took it at him taking a swing at how wrong stereotypes are in general. The Korean in the story thought he was stealing because he was Black; he thought all Asians looked alike and gave them a stereotypical name. Dave is good at making serious points, but finding the comedy in it.

    I am Korean-Am & I've often been stared down & treated like a thief by K store owners, particularly when I was younger. It was later explained to me that they're like that to everybody because in Korea, it's not acceptable for customers to touch the merchandise w/out buying. I'm not saying that Koreans aren't racist; I'll be the first to admit that many times they are. But it is wise to discern between cultural conflict & racism. Otherwise, you are simply fanning the flames of racial conflict.

    That all being said, Dave Chapelle isn't racist. His commedy uses race, but it has always been satirical, acknowledging the racist attitudes and behaviors that have permeated all realms of society. For two seasons, his show on Commedy Central was one of the most viewed shows on television, but he turned down millions of dollars to make a third season, and instead, went to Africa.
