Both say a lot of racists things. 1 of them does it because it keeps him in power with his constituents (and maybe because he is racist), the other is just a racist.

Shapton, Farrakhan, and Jackson stay in power in the black community by constantly ripping the white man instead of telling certain members of their community to clean up their act. Those 3 guys, IMO, enable the worst of the worst in their community to behave the way they do.

they also shake down companies for big money, all they have to do is find something they can claim is 'racist' or 'discrimination' on the company and threaten to scream discrimination and get their base riled up for bad PR and boycott, then rich corporation pays them off behind the scenes since its cheaper.


the irony of the Imus comments is its not a phrase Imus old butt came up with his own, its something that originates in ghetto/rap culture and now filtering its way through to the rest of us. Someone should search rap songs and find out how many times that phrase has been used in songs over the years.

question: will the people judging imus for being "judgemental" realize they are being judgemental in the process?

Judging Imus for his statements is not the same as stereotyping the entire Rutger's basketball team.

yes, only point I'm making is that people constantly lash out at people for being "judgemental" but fail to see they are judgemental

Would that include tattoos?

No. Tattoos are not an issue in my mind.

The Rutgers team is scheduled to appear on Oprah Winfrey's show today.

The whole issue has now crossed well into "blown out of proportion" territory, IMO.

What I find odd is that less attention was given to Michael Richards' n-word rant, which was far worse than what Imus said.

has anyone seen the first episode of this season's Southpark, titled: "With apologies to Jesse Jackson" ?

I heard about it thanks to this crap and downloaded it last night, it is hilarious.

What else could've happened with that?

Stop airing Seinfeld? I might have to shoot somebody if that happened.
