Really? And why not? I fail to observe that there was such a distinction...

So what did MLK do, again?

THIS is the crux of the matter.

Despite the pathetic and rather uninformed political leanings of the liberals on this site, Bush is an American leader. You may not agree with him, but the fact remains. MLK represented mostly black interests. A great man, from what I know, but he was mostly a black leader. However, today's "black leaders" are even further concentrated on aiding black people.

I have nothing to whine about.

It's you who's doing the "crucified white man" routine.

Look at this Jewish girl from Uganda...she is racist against blacks.

Look at these Jewish girls from India...they are racist against blacks.

It would be great if for once you brought up Hispanics or Chinese people out of nowhere in a thread about racism.

Jews by ethnicity and Jews by religious affiliation--you can be one without the other.

The relevance of Richards being Jewish is that 50 years ago some Jews were slain in the name of antisemitism. There were signs on some restaurants that said "No Jews or dogs." So if a Jewish person forgets where she or he comes from and spews hatred toward minority groups, that person has clearly forgotten a time when Jews hadn't assimilated and weren't considered "white." They were barely considered human.

Michael Richards isn't Jewish.

The article didn't come up--there was an error.

There has been debate as to whether or not he's Jewish so if he isn't, I'm glad that's cleared up.

I think because he played a primary character on Seinfeld, everyone assumes he was Jewish... Just saying... I have no comment on dude's religious affiliation and really don't care that much.

Aside from that:

Interesting the black folks in the audience where Michael Richards had ranted and spewed his venomous epithets said they plan to sue him.

It'll probably turn into a civil suit and some folks will make a little money focusing on lunatic...

I like the Seinfeld show

DSTKellie · #56 11-26-2006, 09:47 PM

Michael Richards is racist. Over 3/4 of the white population probably is. I would have been very pissed if I was in the audience and I probably would have started a riot. But other than that he is racist and that pretty much doesnt make or break my day.

Now I think people have gone over board with this lawsuit issue. But then again he's a rich man and it looks like they will probably get some compensation for this incident. So go for it and break him where it hurts the most.

Why did he apologize to Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharpton...were they there??

My reading of the news reports said the homie felt compelled to speak to Al Sharpton first, then connect up with Jesse.

Sounds like he's trying to buy protection from lawsuits from the "heckler thugs" at the comedy club...

The folks my buy it for a settlement out of court. If it makes it that far.

On our news, he was posing with Jesse and Paul Mooney. He had some LAME apology.

If there was a tactic we would employ, we can cirulate web-wide, to boycott all Seinfeld season DVDs. But there will always be those "tap dancing negroes"...

So, if 3/4 of white people are racists, what percentage of black people are racists?

06pilot · #59 11-26-2006, 10:02 PM

SO, I gather if he apologized not many people would think it was sincere. I bet thee are the same people that profess to be God fearing Christians too. Forgiveness apparently had a finite point. Thats not what my Bible says.

These hoodlums in the audience were heckiling him. Now of course it wasnt right for him to say racist statements but ya know, we have much more important things going on in life than to wory about some guy we will neer meet in person

Are you from LA? Have you ever lived there? If you are not from Los Angeles, then you no clue what kinds of racial tensions exist there...

After 2 violent racially based outbursts that turned into riots in 1965 Watts and 1992 South Central LA, do you think that the "act of forgiving" someone who blurts any kind of racial epithets in that area would be safe given the incindiery nature of it? Literally?
