    That was it??

    I am NOT a Toby Keith fan, but come on.

    If you have a problem with this, then I assume you also have a problem with Will Smith acknowledging it by pointing to him right after he did it? And also with the SHG for writing that “yellow” lyric in the first place?

    Yeah, I didn't see anything wrong with what he did.

    Maybe he had an itch? lol

    That's the first time I saw the video and while I thought from the description Toby Keith was being more stupid than offensive from seeing the video I don't really even think he was trying to make a slant eyed gesture. It looks to me like he is making a gun pointing gesture at himself and then shoots Will Smith with the same gesture.

    So we could be looking at TOF (Toby Only Fans) flooding country music discussion forums soon?

    Toby Keith's attempt at rapping is worse.

    Knowing how much whiskey country music singers drink is it possible he was pointing to his yellow eyes (due to a failing liver)? Something to think about.

    I just spoke with the Tobe and he assures me he was just showing his dislike for the Bruneians only.

    Apparently, its personal.

    He's got no beef with any other Asians.

    After watching the video, I thought black people had a bigger right to be outraged than yellow people.

    I really think anyone who's ears were forced to listen to that should be offended.

    This thread is a beacon in an otherwise dim and depressing forum. Toby Keith sucks.

    Why is it ok to call black people black and caucasians as white, but calling Asians yellow is racist? If you base it strictly on skin color, Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean/Japanese etc. people really do have yellowish skin...

    why is it insensitive? Don't Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean/Japanese people know that they have yellowish skin and slanted eyes, and that people refer to them as "yellows" in the same way that they do "whites" and "blacks"? I don't get it :confused:

    I'm Asian and outside of being sick I've never had yellowish skin.

    Our jaundice ties into why some of us can't handle much alcohol.

    I don't think there are very many white people that are white.
