Don Imus, sticks his foot in his mouth...

Do blacks demand the same level of respect from everyone? Including other blacks?

In my experience, no.

 

[Roughidle]

If they want respect from anyone, they should demand it from everyone.

They should first give it.

It was a joke...good grief, don't let the media dictate common sense. If you don't like it, don't listen. Damn!

 

[mAlice]

okay... we're good again.

No, we're not.

Anyone who listens to Imus regularly would know his sense of humor and would take it with a chuckle or a shrug.

It is a non issue. If I remember "nappy headed" is one of his favorite sayings.

pssst....don't tell Rev. Al about Imus' song parody by the "Black Beatles."

"I can play center. I can play forward. Cuz I be 6'4!" or "We all live in a yellow Coupe de Ville, yellow Coupe de Ville, yellow Coupe de Ville!"

True..I used to listen to Don Imus a few years back with my mom. He joked on everyone..not just picked out a certain group that he would make stabs at. Its entertainment.

Al and Jesse will continue playing this up for a few days. Imus will donate a lot of $$$ to Jackson. By next year Jackson and Sharpton will be on Imus extorting money from their next victim.

Good morning

No, we're not.

Sure we are. You just don't know it yet.

 

[Qurious]

This man should've been fired.

How in the H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICK do u think saying "jiggaboos & nappy headed hoes" is NOT racist?!

First Kramer and now this....

It is inevitable that a white person will eventually come out of pocket with statements like this at the height of anger, frustration or when they are just flat out drunk & high....

This man looks like the grim repear at a concentration camp and the cotton fields.

Just about as inevitable as a a muslim blowing up your house or a black guy carjackin ya

Keep dreamin'.

At least we wait until we've had a few drinks to lose control. What's Chris Rocks excuse every time he gets in front of an audience?

 

[Roughidle]

...and a black person will spew the same ignorant statements happy, mad, drunk or sober...especially if it makes for a top selling recording or stand up comedy routine.

Try again.

I should've expected that response though....

Instead of admitting the fact that what this man said was racist you would rather try and justify his actions by using a "black" person as an example.

Don't you have some pet food to throwup?

Just pointing out the double standard when I see it.
