Ugh -_- Can't go a month without someone doing something like this.

Love how they have to make a big deal about nothing, since she was clearly just joking around.

^lmao wtf? Are you stupid? Racist remarks are unacceptable, weather joking or not.

If you are an on the air commentator, you have to watch what you say.

Co-sign.




Anyone would be ignorant to forget about what happened in the past...

Why?

Because like the old adage says, "History repeats itself."





Totally unacceptable man...

It wasn't racially centered though. It was just a joke, not even a racial joke. She didn't mention race it was just whatever. People just connected lynching and race.

of course she meant it as a joke...but, she realized how dumb the comment was after it came out of her mouth...esp. when Tiger's CHOCOLATE FACE flashed across the screen...

I bet she had a "O SHIT" moment in that tiny head of hers

She shouldn't have to walk on eggshells, let alone be suspended because of it. It's not like lynching was built for the sole purpous of killing black ppl in shit. I know it's like that in America, but she obviously didn't mean it in that way so she shouldn't have to pay for it. And wtf he isn't even 100% black he's half asian. HE doesn't even wanna be called black so whats the point of having to talk to him as if he is.

I'm so not having this convo because your first comment suggested you believed it was inappropriate.


I don't have time for games.




Comment was inappropriate.


Yoiu know...thay word that means NOT APPROPRIATE.


If Hillary Clinton said "That NIGGER Obama is not ready to be President"...would that be acceptable too?



Come on dude...quit'


Also, brown skin = black...You think racists care about genomes?

^ EXACTLY. Everybody knows race had nothing to do with her comment, but when people look back on it now it's like oh shit...........the black community might be offended. Boo-hoo. Everybody needs to get over their sensivitiy issues and grab a tissue. This includes black, white, asian, w/e. (this includes certain posters in this thread as well.) :thumbup:


...haha that's kinda funny, but it's true.

Hey let's all jump off a cliff, it might be fun! <------ EXACTLY.

Sorry, I'd love to sit here and act like a 3 year old, but I'm trying to beat MGS2!

;)

The comment was obviously taken out of context. Should she have said it? Maybe not, but I could really care less.

fuck up!
Seriously!

Those that instantly relate the word lynch with racial comments are racist themselfs.

Lynch:
murder for supposed crime: to seize somebody believed to have committed a crime and put him or her to death immediately and without trial, usually by hanging.


I guess saddams people will take it personally aswell, seen as the only relevence is hanging.
What about witches?
All the people of:

Australia
Brazil
Bulgaria
Canada
Japan
India
Germany
Israel
Singapore
United Kingdom
Hungary
Iran
Iraq
Jordan
Malaysia

seen as there main source of capitol punsihment was by rope and noose.

She wasnt meaning anything racial about it.


Three words.

Take it easy!!

the q should be lynched..

Capitalize my name Bitch.








:thumbup:

i havent followed the link but here's my 2 cents

when somebody speaks publicly they should always give a though to any potential connotations drawn from what they may say and speak accordingly

it would be inappropriate for a music channel presenter talking about an muslim rapper saying "he's gonna blow up and take the charts by storm"

or an native american business being descibed "completely wiped out by the competition" where said competition is white owned

obviously it seems more trivial when whats being said couldnt be seen to apply to only your own ethnic or social group but if i can then some will take offence to it

^pretty much summed it up right there

I don't know what the fuck that had anything to do with anything. To me, those would be perfectly appropriate statements to make about anybody.


and.....




You know that more white people jump off cliffs than any other race......you're a FUCKIN RACIST!!!!!!!


cause yo' Nyg said so :thumbup:

it's called context........

a bit different because the noose used to lynch blacks is such a powerful symbol of racism and shear depravity.







1

yeh true but i wasnt referring to the level of severity i was referring to the underlying principle so that we didnt have ignorant heads coming up in here saying it aint a big deal

blah blah blah.
be diffrent if the bitch said, take him to a tree and lynch him. But she was just using extended vocab. She would of been implying incriminate him for being so good, therefore, she was complimenting him.

Again.
Fuck up!

She was suspended from the Golf Channel.




Meanwhile, Al Sharpton is mobilizing his forces to get her fired.

Tiger Woods himself has accepted her apology and says she's a friend of his.

Woods knows what's up.

Al sharpton gets on my nerves. That wigger needs to be hung
