If you hold it in for too long, you might just find that you no longer can let it out without help. I've been there, and it sucks a whole lot worse than someone seeing you get teary when you realize that you can't even express natural, rational grief without someone or something to knock down the walls for you. It took counseling and several very good friends to start putting things right, and I'm still a long ways away from where I think I need to be.
In other words, yes- you can lose the ability to express strong emotions. Emotional self-control is a useful ability, and it's come in handy for me many times, but if taken too far it will ruin you. Great for avoiding hurtful confrontations and preventing you from losing your temper... not so great when you have something that needs to come out but can't because you've forgotten how to let it. And yes, there are specific examples behind that- just nothing I'd want to share here.
Far better to be seen as "weak" than to try to be too strong.

I don't cry or get angry about emotional issues. I'm pretty good!
Then again, I'm generally a really cheerful/happy person and there's only been a few things that bother me.

I think people just get desensitized after a while, where all your emotions eventually blend to a certain level and simply adjust rather than completely shift. Crying is usually like an outburst of a sad emotion, just as laughing is an outburst of a happy emotion, though I think I could comfortably say I haven't cried in years, but nor have I laughed really really hard in a while.

It's not that he cares... who know for sure he is even black? It's not like you can look at a forum and pick out who is black, brown, white, albino, red, yellow, or w/e else color someone could be.
He does it to be a trolling idiot, and it is quite annoying. It is not even original or funny. The whole black people and KFC bit played out a long time ago.
