its illegal to say yell out fire in a crowded place- (thats the restriction of the freedom of speech). its illegal to walk down the street and slap someone , but its not illegal to say racially geared words on t.v. as a joke.
..
its easy to tell if someone is racist or not, and just cuz u laugh at certain racial situation or point them out doesn't make u racist. it makes u aware of your surrounding, no matter what race u are.
..
shouldn't take being politically incorrect or stereo types too far. b/c its obvious and ignorant to do either. and not funny.

I'm sure members of the KKK laugh and make jokes about blacks as they spew their hate. Just because he's famous doesn't make him exempt from being a racist.

yeah, but being that he's famous and on the radio makes him less racist because he's made it as far as he has with out sayin racist things. if i were on the radio im sure i'd slip up a lot more than dude and im not racist at all.

Less racist? But what account? Dude, racist people today aren't the raging rednecks they once were. This is the 21st century. Except for a few (e.g., Michael Richards), most racists and racism is covert and perpetuated through policies, beliefs, and ingrained hatred toward people of color.


And, what makes him NOT a racist? He's white. He's in a position of power/influence. He made racist remarks.


Case closed.

I'm so sick of white people thinking racism is a figment of people's imagination. If these people aren't racist, then who fuckin is? Tell me that.

oh god, grow a pair of balls and stop crying, bitching, moaning etc. i didnt see dave chappelle or carlos mencia get fired for being "racist" about white people

its a fucking joke, now everyone likes to laugh at other shit until it hits their own race, deal with it

Give me a fucking break. Do you think anyone would care if, say, there was something on BET where they posted up some white people and said 'look at that greasy hair'?

is it really illegal to say "bomb" on an plane?

this has nothing to do with him personally being a racist... he said it on a ntional broadcast, and what he said was wrong... he should be fired based on that, not based on who he is as a person, or whether or not he thinks he's funny

He shouldn't be fired. It's impossible for a celebrity to be racist biologically. Fame introduces a hormonal chemical called Tolerncial B, when this chemical enters the brain it tends to leave the mind open to different signals of the brain. Therefore him having any behind doors racist beliefs,or his words influencing people in a negative way is out of the question. For real though he shouldn't be fired. Al sharpton should realise everytime you tell people to not to say anything racist it makes people mad and someone purpously says it. On the other hand during 9/11 if anyone said anything about terrorism they got pulled off the air and everyone applauded. And if anyone says anything pro al quida then they'd want that pulled off the air. But race? Nooooo, freedom of speech man, we got our rights. THEY DOOK OUR DURR

if SOC says this..........

it should be so.............

And I'm sick of people saying "if a black person said" bla bla then people wouldn't get mad that shit is retarded. Just as black people have said racial comments without any reaction white people have said it without reaction too. Kanye says racist shit and people get mad about it too. It's like hella people fuel their own fire. You can't use your own expectations of how situations MIGHT pan out as an excuse. I notice everytime some racist shit is said about black people so many white ppl have 1000792472398472384 insults for black people handy to use as an example. Wtf does this tell you? And as south park THANKFULLY put it, jesse jackson or any of these rainbow coalition ppl DO NOT REPRESENT THE ENTIRE RACE. So please people stop using this shit as an excuse to post racist bullshit. It may be so fuckin hilarious/brave of you to do this, but seriously shut the fuck up.

^^ i agree w this too
