No it doesn't. It suggests that he knows that 'black people' are not one homogenous group. What offends one set of people in one country/culture can be very different to what offends in another. There's a generation thing to add into the mix too. It really isn't as simple as, pardon the pun...

What's right with it!? I don't know where to begin if you don't think there's anything wrong with it. It's on a whole different level to someone blacking up at the darts that's for sure.
