has quite a few opinions… on just about everything, from race relations, the
police, immigration laws, religion and the mentally challenged. He will either
have you wincing or laughing, but either way he doesn’t really care, because as
Carlos is quick to point out, if you ain’t laughing, you ain’t living!!! He
had the second highest rated program on Comedy Central, “Mind of Mencia” and
has also had his own Comedy Central Presents special. Friday @ 8:00 & 10:30 ($30),
