Then he saves a black mans life (the same one from the former incident who was suddenly trying to prove that he is black), gives a black kid a ride, then shoots the black kid for thinking he had a gun (which he actually did but the incident didn't involve it). I could see why someone would think the movie is dumb, its pretty far fetched.

I very much liked it, but I agree with your assessment. It didn't have a complex plot, it basically just tried to put all the racial stereotypes out there and let the audience react to them. In a weird way I thought of the movie as a complex Seinfeld episode in the sense that all the small stories and characters were wound together in some fashion to form one big story.
