Stereotype of the Month Entry
(3/14/07)


Another Stereotype of the Month entry:

Overheard on the 3/22 morning repeat of the 3/14 Tonight Show:

An elite military unit made up of Native American Indians is now being used to track down terrorists in the Middle East, including Osama bin Laden. [To Kevin Eubanks] They're using Native American Indians. They're over in Afghanistan right now. They haven't found Bin Laden yet, but they did open 13 casinos.

Indians as casino owners...ho-hum.

For reactions to this stereotypical joke, see Leno on Indian Trackers.
