how would you come to the dumb ass conclusions you have come to? where did they come from then? they had to come from somewhere.
he shouldn't even have been suspended, nothing should have happened to him. and if i were him and those smoking gots sharpton and jackson came up to me...i'd tell those ers to go home to their nappy haired wife and children. when is America going to wake up and stop being a bunch of pussies. just b/c someone makes a stereotypical comment or a generalization, does not mean they are a racist. this whole thing is ing ridiculous. i'd like to beat the ing out of jesse jackson...that ing nappy haired .

you might be the single stupidest person on the forum except for buck rogers.
Didn't Jesse Jackson once refer to Jews as "hymies"? After an incident in which a Jewish man ran over a black youth, didn't Al Sharpton organize a protest in which he called Jews "diamond merchants" and challenged them to a fight saying "If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house."?
probably, but that shouldn't deflect the abject stupidity Imus has exhibited. however, if the Rutgers women accept his apology this becomes a non-issue. they have dealt with this whole situation quite gracefully.
...i am sorry intelligence is wasted on you.
i was thinking the same thing........ then after that he asked why its wrong to call a group of black women "nappy headed hos"
Also, all he said about black people was they had black people hair, I mean shouldn't the hos comment be taken with more anger.
nothing you have said in this thread has been remotely intelligent. your effort is what was wasted.
incorrect. you just fail or are unable to follow.
Meanwhile across the sea in Africa:
"On Sunday, 11 March 2007 Mugabe's ZANU PF government attacked people who had gathered for a prayer meeting in Harare. Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader Morgan Tsvangirai was tortured. Credible sources claimed that police had taken turns to lift Tsvangirai and smash him against a wall. Tsvangirai had lost consciousness three times but they continued to assault him.
Beatrice Mutetwa, Tsvangirai's lawyer said, I believe Morgan Tsvangirai is in a deplorable condition... Another lawyer Innocent Chagonda who visited Tsvangirai said, he was in bad state that you could not distinguish between the head and face and he could not see properly.
Tsvangirai won the March 2002 presidential elections but the State and its media manipulated the results. Tsvangirai is the leader with legitimacy to rule Zimbabwe because he has the consent of the majority. He has survived many attempts to end his life."
Maybe Sharpton, Jackson and their ilk can help this man instead of parading around saying how righteous they are.
After some of the stupid, racist, ignorant you've spouted on this board I truly think you are one of the last people that should say anything. In fact, the number of people in this country who are in a position to say anything could probably fit in a phone booth.i was thinking the same thing........ then after that he asked why its wrong to call a group of black women "nappy headed hos"
Let he without sin cast the first stone.
It's all over the ing news in NY at the moment. Fairly lame controversy. If making derogatory comments about black women really mattered then the entire hip hop industry would be in trouble.
Anyways, the things this country pays attention to...
It took many years just to get where we are now. It wasn't long ago when minorities could not vote or use the same damn bathrooms as others could. Not long ago at all.
Great point. If we have to over react for the next 20 yrs to help make up for the last 200 yrs of injustice, then so be it. There should be no place for hatred and bigotry in the media. Rush got away with it and he should have been fired. You have to know that you can not say hurtful things on the air against black people, if you don't by now, then you are an idiot and need to be taken off the air....at least for a year. The punishment should be more severe than 2 wks..... that is just a vacation.
he'll probably lose the MSNBC aired portion of his program i'd imagine. the radio show may stay.
Perhaps someone should relay this message to the Hip Hop/Rap industry. Why don't they step back and see what message they are sending. I guess its fine to disrespect your own race but not okay for others to? Blacks cry the most about racial injustice yet the young black generation seems to promote it.
I don't think it was racist, it was sexist. Nappy headed is not a racial slur, but 'ho is a sexist remark. Women all over the US should be pissed, not the hypocrite twins Jackson and Sharpton. People just jump on the witch hunts these two idiots start without actually taking the time to think about what they are doing.
I concur. But pointing the finger at others isn't an excuse.
It is NOT fine to disrespect your own race and I do think that the Hip Hop/Rap culture is partly responsible for some of the slang language being used today and the way women are portrayed.
I'm sure others would cry about racial injustice if it were against them.
I agree. The most offensive part was the use of the term "ho". These young women are an intelligent, talented, hard working group in no way deserving of being called that. They are probably an example of the "ideal" that all women should strive to be. Women have struggled to overcome so many prejudices---and black women have had twice the battle. If I were the parent of one of these girls I would be absolutely distraught
that redneck was harsh, but this media scandal is way out of hand. ing stupid media.
I wonder what Kramer has to say about this?
I too don't understand why the sexist part of this whole thing isn't being emphasized 1/2 as much as the racist angle. I guess sexist doesn't sell as news. They even showed a few of the Rutgers players on ESPN speaking of this, and they were vocal about the "ho" remark over anything else.
I guess some don't consider it a racist remark. To me it is clear. But that is just me.
Man, the ignorance out there is just amazing.............
A lot of racists post here.
Anyone can have "nappy" hair. White, Black, Hispanic, etc. It seems you are ignorant of that fact and instead choose to brand people as racist. Oh well, so be it.
