Love how the left's definition of racism is a "living definition" if you will.
In this entertaining case, they are arguing that the name of a fictional character from Hollywood is a racist term (not sure how that works for a nationality, vice a race but whatevs).
I just love this new future we live in. Thanks liberals.
Immediately threatens an escalation to physical violence in a peaceful verbal exchange where the guy is asking to take a selfie with him. Typical liberal---completely full of crap---and whats funnier---I woudnt have been a bit surprised if that random guy didnt beat his azz if push came to shove.
Cuomo needs to be red flagged. Someone that hot headed and violent cant be trusted to own a fire arm. He certainly has no business having a national show to push his hate filled violent rhetoric.

Quote:CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who was captured on a viral video getting into a profanity-laced exchange with a person who called him “Fredo,” once referred to himself as the hapless “The Godfather” character in a radio interview.
Cuomo was interviewed by Curtis Sliwa on his AM 970 radio show in January 2010 about whether his brother Andrew might seek the Democratic nomination for governor.
Sliwa said he dubbed the Cuomo family “la Cuomo Nostra.”
“There is a group of people — politicos — who always hint they might run, but not necessarily plunge all the way, and they are members of la Cuomo.”
“Who am I, then, Fredo?” Cuomo asked in response.
“Yes, exactly,” Sliwa said. “So you better be careful that your brother Andrew doesn’t kiss you on both cheeks and then all of a sudden they take you out on the middle of the lake and where’s Chris?”
“He kisses me plenty because he’s a great big brother,” Cuomo said.
A video that went primetime Monday on Twitter shows Cuomo in a heated shouting match with a man who called him “Fredo,” with the CNN newsman telling him it was an insult to Italians the same way the N-word is for African Americans.
“Fredo is from ‘The Godfather,’ he was a weak brother and the use of it to an Italian is disparaging,” Cuomo tells him in the video.
The man then tells Cuomo that he thought that was his name.
Cuomo, a son of the late Gov. Mario Cuomo, shoots back, “Own what you said” before threatening to “throw you down these stairs like a f–king punk.”
CNN did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Cuomo referring to himself as “Fredo” in the radio interview.
Fredo, one of the three Corleone brothers in the film, eventually betrays his younger sibling, Michael.
Again, our President is playing chess and the left is playing checkers...he's just smarter than everyone else. And the left just can't see it.
But regarding Cuomo, I say good for him. The guy calling him Fredo started the crap and Cuomo has a right to push back. Just like anybody else. I disagree with virtually everything he says but I'd side with him on this one.

Meh, maybe if this is between a couple of 5th graders. Adults aren't supposed to act out that way. I've been called much much worse and not reacted like a school boy.
