I didn't know the KKK could be so funny.

One of the funniest things I have ever seen is when Richard talks the Ku Klux Klan into helping him push the school bus out of the mud. When they are all busting their asses, it's so funny. I think that scene was a great way to look at Richard's life. He was always taking hateful and hurtful things and turning them into comedy as his way of saying that nothing ever got the best of him. I loved Richard and I'm sorry to see him go. He was the originator, not the duplicator. RIP

And with the late great Roy Jensen (aka Cloud William) as the gullible Klan Leader. Boys. I don't think we should...uhh...tell anybody about this!" That scene was gold!

Yeah, We the People used to know how to deal with bigotry. Too bad we got a government and media now that profit off of We the People being divided...

The moment he says that all the kids are blind and they, without missing a beat, fall into character always makes me laugh out loud!!! They were all con artists at heart lmao!!! Richard Pryor was truly one of the greats....
