That wasn't really what I was alluding to, mainly I brought up the holocaust to give a real world example of persecution that isn't racial to show that it's not always about race. Either way, we're probably saying much of the same thing.
I'm Chris Childs and I thought the "nappy headed hoes" thing was funny. So funny, I added this;
See those nappy headed hoes
Throwing elbows
Running, shooting hoops
Out there on the flo.
Yes they kinda dark
Look like they should bark
If I was rating ugly
They would be way off the chart
I think they like each other
So they will never be a mother
They just mad cause they lost
And they go to school at rutgers.

Wrong school. That's LSU
haha yeah i think we kinda are.
HO is not offensive at all cuz most american women are not talented but are undercover pros utes. So by calling them hos is just telling the truth. wnba is a sham.
Preach Brother.
Can we just squash whatever we have between each other?
Seriously, because your insults are just lame and I don't want any part of it.
Awwwww does the little troll not like that he got outed as a crackhead?
I don't have anything against you monosylab1k. I just want you to stop responding like a 10 year old to my posts. My bad If i pissed you off the other day but let's face it, you're a mavs fan so I think I have a right to piss mavs fans off. That's just a fact and you're going to have to deal with it.
spoken like a true troll. fine, i'm done with you as well Chris Childs....but for old time's sake, remind us all again of which teams have a choice to lose and which teams HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO WIN IT ALL.
OMG I am getting tired of this ing. I think the ppl complaining about the ing are on to something.
They just showed some random lady on the TV crying "...why did he have to do this? why did he have to chose 10 innocent girls? bhuaaauaaahhh!!"
goddam STFU! who knows if they are innocent? at the very least they commited the crime of being too nappy headed
I guess I'm to the point where he might as well be fired, I mean look at it like this....
1. Major corporations (American Express, Staples, etc.) have indefinitely pulled their ad campaigns from his radio show.
2. He has alienated many African Americans and Women that listened to his radio show.
3. There's no way that he gets any Presidential Candidates, or any high-level celebrity for that matter, on his show as they will probably will not want to be identified with supporting him.
, he's outta the job already, might as well make it official....that's just sad. Yes, what he said was wrong, but I don't believe he should be fired, let alone be crucified like he is.
I don't think many African Americans or women listen to his show anyway. His target audience is mostly white male, and a lot of them probably agree with him. As for the other stuff, after the two weeks it'll be a non-issue
Periodically we offer up a token sacrifice so that we don't have to address underlying race issues.
The same power brokers who are destroying Don Imus right now underwrote his lowbrow act with their sponsorship dollars for decades.
His audience isn't as targeted as you think. He's fairly liberal and speaks to alot of different issues/people.
Actually, that fact hurts his standing very much. Unlike Rush, Imus can't fall back on a strong base of blindly loyal listeners who think he can do no wrong.
Another thing going against Imus is that he happened to delve into the Sports arena, thus gaining the coverage of ESPN....and THAT is a powerful influence.
I would like to believe that this situation goes away after a month of a million apologies, which is how I felt at first, but I'm beginning to think the ending will be different.
And I don't think many would say that what he said was smart or agree with him....I think there are those who feel this is getting undeserved attention however.
they just did. that poor bas will be seen in a downtown near you, with a sign reading "I need a beer"
regardless of whether Imus deserved to be fired. Im glad they're taking him off... hes boring as
Let us pray.
He is so rich he can buy 100 nappy headed hos and feel much better for life.
Thank you all for the attention
First of all, Imus is not a liberal. He said he was supporting McCain in '08. He is very complimentary of Cheney and Lieberman. He never had anything good to say about Clinton or Obama. He did support Kerry. Actually, he was supportive of whoever would give him an interview and insulting to whoever would not.
I actually had the MSNBC simulcast on most mornings I get ready for work because I wanted the type of topics he brought to the morning show for the most part, politics, some humor and sports. I didn't particularly like him or his schtick but I find the Today Show, GMA, CNN, Fox & Fiends and CBS Early Show boring.
I hope MSNBC continues to go for something different and doesn't go with a formula male/female host, fat weatherman, cute newscaster, etc... If they want to go for "balance", why not have an hour and half of "the Young Turks" from Air America and an hour and half of the Mike Gallagher Show in the morning?
I concur.
So is there a real systematic racial problem in our society after Imus is dropped by NBC and a variety of Fortune 50 sponsors? Maybe characterizing minority women as es and hos in hip hop will be taken on next. Oh wait, there's a black face on that so it's ok....
