More BS.

hahahh yeah, the one time he called him out he got defensive and called them "you people". Keep digging that hole hahahah.

Seriously, you think anyone outside of New York and parts of the midwest knows who he is?

Knew who he was, that is. Thanks to the good Rev. he's famous like a mother fucker.

Other than you, yes...you obviously don't know jack about the facts...stop watching the cartoon network, zippy...

How did this thing turn from discussing the foul words from a racist bigot to what sharpton and jackson have done,you really see where people are coming from on issues like this.

Imus knew what he was getting into when he agreed to be on sharptons show,he wanted quick forgiveness from black people but it didn't quite work out.

Don Imus is a fucking moron, that part is obvious. Should he be fined or fired for what he said, though? Of course not. It's JUST WORDS. DON'T LISTEN IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT.

If any "black leader" would come out for a boycott of his show, I say go for it. Power to the people. Just don't go running to the corporations, begging daddy to stop the terrible man and his mean words.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH you got me pegged, cause there's a huge difference between fox and msnbc. I haven't watched tv news in years, it's all the same propaganda bullshit.

I don't get why 'nappy headed hos' has to be racist, it's a comment about hair not race. I went to a fairly liberal college, there were many hippies, white, non white, male, female with what I might call 'nappy' hair. It's not Michael Richards with the 'N' word.

And what agenda is that, Einstein? What do those two expect to extract from this issue? So first you speak for Jackson and Sharpton, and now you also speak for prominent whites?

There you go again. Let me put it to you once again: You have no right to tell another what they should or shouldn't deem offensive. I suppose you find a handicapped person fodder for jokes too, right?

Are you from the south by chance?

Thanks for avoiding most of my points and making blind assumptions about where I live. I'm actually in sunny southern california.

I was asking a question, not telling you what to find offensive. Not having nappy hair I was unaware this was a sore spot for some people.

Jackson, and Sharpton especially, have pretty clear agendas. They rile up the black community to believing that kramer or imus is the cause for all their worries, while avoiding more serious and difficult problems. This is how they make a living, and they're both very wealthy from it.

Jesus, God forbid someone defend speech they don't personally agree with, what a travesty.

Your mindset is that from an impoverished stereotypical ignorant southener from the 1950s ... My apologies to those from the south currently reading this exchange.

I didn't avoid your points, and if anything it is you who are digressing. Reread my posts and your responses. If anything it's you who is avoiding my points. And if one is going to make these types of comments, get ready to pay the piper for it. No one is suggesting we do away with the First Amendment.

You are still missing the point about what and what others should find painful or offensive. You cannot claim that position, particularly when you don't even see why these comments were deemed offensive. Have you seen the Rutgers women talk about it yet? If not, then do it.

Please -- PLEASE -- tell me about these "clear agendas". So they should stay mute and incidents like this should be allowed to be continued unfettered? How dare those blacks get "riled up" over a man getting shot 50 times on his wedding night, huh? Are incidents such as this not indicative of something greater perhaps? So you are now the arbiter of "more serious and difficult problems"? Given your claim that they have "clear agendas", who then determines what is "serious and difficult"? Someone white (I pressume) like you? Yeah, you'll give them a break, right? I suppose when they came out against the Texaco executives caught making racist comments ("black jellie beans",etc), that that issue also wasn't serious or difficult? By the way, have you ever been followed in a store because of your color? Been denied a place because of your color? Been turned down for a loan because of your color, etc?

I agree with Mike. You are totally Fox News. Deal with it, Sport!

... By the way, I dare you to call any of our African-American posters, "Nigga", since it is simply all about context with you. Let's see how they'll react knowing you are white ?
