Being black is normal, wtf is up with these black people getting all offended by racist jokes and the word n****** and crosses burning on their lawns?

I want srs answers to this question Jay Riall. Once you have that answer, consider how we might construct an analogous justification for why gay people would be similarly offended.

If a racial joke is made and someone is offended they might get mad or upset because that person made fun of them. Just like being ugly or fat, etc. But why the need to defend being gay if it's normal? You'd never see someone defending his race like ," Ya i'm (race?) so, you not comfortable with your race, is that why you make fun of mine?"

Have you considered that this is because, among the various stupid things people say about blacks, "you chose to be black" is not one of them?
