| Six black lawmakers Wednesday called Florida official ripped for airing Rock video February 24, 2005 TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Six black lawmakers Wednesday called for the removal of the head of the state's juvenile justice department for showing a Chris Rock video at a meeting with NAACP leaders. One lawmaker called the 4-minute skit -- How To Not Get Your A-- Kicked By The Police -- ''absolutely racist.'' An NAACP member at the viewing last July said no one complained. The comic's skit was shown in the office of Juvenile Justice Secretary Anthony Schembri -- the former head of New York City's jails who was the model for the 1991-1995 TV show ''The Commish.'' Rock's tips for young blacks include driving with a white friend, and turning down loud rap music when pulled over. The video also shows actors dressed as police pretending to beat up blacks. AP |

|  Don't know if y'all saw the bit - it's a real hoot!  I always did think it silly when a group screams 'Racial Prejudice' on one of their own . . .  Actually, it makes some good points - one of which was to "use common sense!"
