Jamie Foxx, the star of the new movie Django Unchained, repeated a line from the movie on SNL to great applause. The line, in the following video, was about how great it was to kill all the white people in the movie, as he swept his arm to encompasse the SNL audience. Now, being that the movie is about a freed slave trying to save his wife from slavery, the line makes sense...as a punch line on SNL it just points out the double standard when it comes to race in the United States. If the line was say from Black Hawk Down, about our rangers in Somalia, and one of the stars from that film stated how great it was to kill all those black people....hmmm...I think the reaction would be quite different than great laughter and applause.

Also, Jamie Foxx as a person is a vile sort of person. He has made some really vile remarks about conservative women in the past and as is the double standard, hasn't really paid a price for it.
As to the irony of Jamie Foxx, a member of the democrat party, playing a freed slave...that is pretty ironic. Keep in mind that the "white," people he is killing in the movie are democrat slave owners. The democrat party owned the slaves, attempted to get slavery pushed into new states, wanted to restart the slave trade with africa and even went to war to maintain the institution of slavery. After the war between democrats and republicans (the Civil War) the democrats continued to fight the Republicans and newly freed slaves as they tried to give rights to the newly freed slaves. The democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to terrorize the freed slaves and their republican allies, they started the Jim Crow laws and did everything they could to suppress the newly freed slaves. It wasn't until the 1960's when they finally realized that no matter how many hangings, and beatings they committed, African Americans, or from this point, Americans who were black, were going to be allowed to vote, and in great numbers, that they changed their tactics to keep power. The democrat party was the party of racism during and up to the 1960's and they are still the home of racism today.
Jamie Foxx is a member of that party, in a movie that celebrates shooting and killing members of that party...hmmm...that seems strange.
