Kramer the racist

[Wok]

Hmm, I never saw the guy beyond the space cadet character he played on that television show.

I guess he lost a few more audience members I guess.

Richards is supposed to be on CBS News in a few minutes.

The full apology will be shown on Late Night with David Letterman, tonight.

 

[phrodeau]

Borat was more offensive.

That's not fair. I'm offensive and racist the whole time and that cunt Letterman has never asked me to be on his show.

I guess you don't do standup in the right clubs.

Maybe you need to be an ex-tv star too.

I thought it was funny as hell! My son beat the hell out of a kid for callin him a cracker with a pool noodle, and hell if it were a black comedian callin someone a cracker? nothing would be said

 

[_geisha_]

Borat was more offensive.

Borat and this incident are both offensive, one isn't more than another. What is offensive is that people are saying it's not offensive.

I don't care what venue it happens in, calling someone a nigger isn't funny. It's not going to be funny. There's nothing remotely funny about it.

Now that I've said my piece, flame away, I'm going for potato soup.

That doesn't really have anything to do with this.

And it's kinda sad you think your son kicks ass cause he resorted to physical violence to solve a situation with a stupid motherfucker who said some total bullshit like a racial slur.

Well darlin, where we live is very diverse, and had he not defended himself he woulda been called/considered a pussy. Oh fucking well.

respectfully disagree. Borat is an act demonstrating the ignorance in our society...Michael Richards wasn't acting.....

 

[Cade Is Here]

and Borat sucks

respectfully disagree. Borat is an act demonstrating the ignorance in our society...Michael Richards wasn't acting.....

the offense is in the enjoyment of borat, in Richard's case, it's the act alone.

I saw borat on myspace once, and I wondered what it was. Not a single moment of that stupidity was humorous to me, and I wonder what everyone else sees in it.

 

[_geisha_]

also, can I sa y, I think it's very very funny that Clairebutterfly has openly said the very same thing that Marksgirl did, yet no one is roasting her racist ass over the coals.

Maybe cause she's hot?

true but how is it different when black comics and rappers use the same word? Ive heard the argument "its used artistically" ,which is bs.

I think looking at Sasha Cohen's act in such a small dose might not give the best exposure to what he does...in one vignette he goes into a bar in what must be Texas and within a few minutes of an open mike night he has everybody echoing an antisemetic song.....was it offfensive? probably to the crackers who got caught singing what they thought...did it offend me no...it helped me understand what goes on in other people's minds a bit...that's the good thing about free speach.....how's that potato soup....

It's a total double standard. Okay for one, but not the other.

truth be told...i haven't read it .... i saw you were here and sauntered over to the end.....

I think that African Americans have earned the right to call themselves what they want.....if I want to call one of my friends kikey kikeman then even though to me it sounds stupid, i can do it...it is not about standards it is about context and common sense and sensitivity....

 

[Pseudomoniker]

I just saw this on Msnbc.....Im shocked no one got on stage and kicked his ass. If I was in the crowd I certainly would have.

Now *that's* funny.

so racism is ok if its within the same race.

I don't know, i'm fucking around on lit instead of driving to my mum n dad's to eat it.

-.-
I'm not talking about free speech, and I'm not talking about Sasha Cohen. I'm talking solely about the level of racism in America and how okay it is to be openly racist, as long as you're in the right place.

No one gives a fuck about any 'arabs.' Borat is from kazakhstan, correct? not an Arabice country, correct? But nobody gives a damn about that, they give a damn about laughing at how stupid the fucking towel head is... the sand nigger... whatever. Maybe they aren't say it, but that's what it is.

It's racism. It's loud, disguised, and disgusting.

I think anybody can call someone else anything they want. When the person who's being called that name says 'hey that offends me.' That's when it should stop.

And you probably shouldn't ever say kikey kikeman again. dorko.

 

[_geisha_]

Now *that's* funny.

I myself chuckled at that sentiment.
