KATT WILLIAMS APOLOGIZES FOR JOKES DIRECTED AT MEXICANS

Katt Williams has apologized after making offensive jokes directed at Mexicans during a show in Phoenix.

At the show, Katt singled out a man seated near the stage and asked him if he was Mexican.

“It appears to me y’all like it over here a lot.  Do you remember when white people used to say ‘Go back to Africa,’ and we’d have to tell them we don’t want to? So if you love Mexico, (expletive), get the (expletive) over there!”  Katt went on for about 7 minutes as the show turned into a back-and-forth profanity-laced argument with the man.  “We were slaves (expletive). You just work like that as landscapers.”

Katt has apologized over the incident saying:

“My remarks were not meant to be offensive,” Williams said. “I want to apologize if my comedy act was taken out of context.  I sincerely appreciate my fans within the Mexican community and would never intentionally go out of my way to offend them.”

 Several times during outburst, Katt, for some reason, sang parts of the national anthem.  Somebody clearly needs a break.
