Automatically Blaming The Black Guy

Jay Leno joked during his Tonight Show monologue on Friday night, “Well, we’re learning more and more about the night Lindsay Lohan was arrested. It seem the SUV she was driving was not hers. Have you heard about this? In fact, three men in the SUV say Lindsay commandeered the car and took them hostage. Then when – then when she was stopped, she told the police, ‘No, no, it was the black kid that was driving’. I believe they were charged with a code 17 violation. Which is ‘automatically blaming the black guy.’ That’s the thing. ‘Uh, the black guy did it, your honor!’ … Do you think that’s true? You know, let me tell you, if a a black guy was driving through L.A. In an SUV, police would have stopped him at least five times before he got to Santa Monica. Okay? Welcome to the real world. … Well, a lot of people are now starting to question the job that they did at this Promises rehab center. In fact, there’s talk they could lose their liquor license. You know? … And these Malibu rehab centers, you know, they really do cater to the rich and famous. Do you know they have valet parkers who will actually crash your car for you? Do you know that? … But I think I figured out what Lindsay Lohan’s problem is. She wants to be an astronaut.”
