I'm black, and I approve. He was a legend. No one was safe, and the reality is that he wasn't attacking people - he was attacking stereotypes. People could laugh at themselves back then and move on together. Now, people are more polite, but walking on eggshells and segregating ourselves. We ended segregation only to be more segregated. Ain't that some shit.

Asians have a prevalence for myopia. At one time in the early to mid 20th century, Japanese tended to wear a style of spectacles that used round corrective lenses. The high lens correction and the round lens format resembled the thick round glass base of a coke bottle. The reference to coke bottle glasses was a stereotype for anyone with a large refractive correction, including a nearsighted student who read many books instead of engaging in activities like sports.

These roasts are the best. They don't look rehearsed like the ones you see today. These legendary comedians had real humor and were damn quick witted. Lol.

One Comic Genius yanking the chains of other legendary performers! RIGHT ON!

When Don Rickles was gonna roast someone - everyone who showed up was getting it too !!! Don was such a funny guy a Great person and loved by everyone.

Don Rickles- CPO Sharkey........ Anyone remember that show? Loved it as a kid. 1976-78.

CPO Sharkey: the show Rickles helped make famous by breaking Johnny Carson's cigarette box one night when Bob Newhart was guest host. Johnny's response was HILARIOUS: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oWiTxq9pm7C3k5M.html

And he says these jokes with a straight face. A true comedic talent.

this would be a hell of a lot better world to live in if we had this kind of humor again and could laugh at ourselves

So many greats on one stage...TV will never compare to all these talents!!!

Hilarious. Don Rickles is so funny here; his sense of humor really shines, but what really stands out is his humanity. Rickles ends each roast with a heartfelt speech about the man of the hour. He speaks with such humility.

back when we could laugh at ourselves and not burn a city down yes sir we have come along way .

@@jackdull5699 You mean those blacks who were resisting arrest and fighting with police officers? In almost every one of those publicized cases, the black person was a fault. And yes, controlling illegal immigration is a GOOD thing. Or do you not believe in border security? What disaster relief? Puerto Rico has had big issues with misusing public funds for years. Trump was right to call them out on it. You know that Puerto Rican mayor that the media paraded around? She was recently arrested for corruption. And why oh why are non white people so desperate to come to a supposedly racist country like the US? Maybe you should layoff MSNBC and CNN for a while and talk to real people to get a true image of the United States.

How we all laughed together....... Don Rickles, the man that could make 5 minutes of utterly hilarious non PC jokes about those around him, yet end it with 15 seconds of such warm heartedness and sincerity..... to me Rickles will always be Me Roast Master... RIP DON..... you may be gone but your memory will live on for many many years

Everyone understands it was just fun and to laugh. He ended it always with kind words

This guy was a one of a kind what a character ,my condolences to his family.
