It's not rocket science folks. If you don't want to be called by the N word, don't use it yourself. If you don't want to be thought of as a racist, don't expect other people to treat you any different than you treat others. No race has superiority over the other, and any attempts to say so is merely conjecture and opinion based on ignorance.

This thread has shown that even with the best intentions in mind, people out there will read into ANYTHING how they want to read into it. Kinda like polishing a turd. It's still a turd, just a shiny turd. No less a turd though.

Mr. Richards is an idiot. He tried to do something and it backfired on him hard. Be it funny or a hard ass, it backfired on him. He now looks like a retard treading water in his own bathtub full of crap. His own fault. His own cross to bear.

It's not news worthy. It's not barely entertainment news worthy. It should not be on the front page of the paper. It should not even be on the NAACP's radar. Someone stepping on their pecker on National TV should NOT be rewarded with a week's worth of primetime news coverage. His lead balloon career will take care of that. Refer above: The cat's out of the bag.....the Genie's out of the bottle.....and he opened a Pandorah's box he can no longer close. He'll pay, in the only way he matters, sure enough.

But for people to be calling for his head on a platter and using his stupidity as a platform to make a mountain out of a mole hill is just as ignorant as his comment was. Again, if you detest a word, DON'T USE IT YOURSELF, DON'T ALLOW ANYONE ELSE TO USE IT, DON'T THINK IT'S FUNNY, DON'T THINK IT'S OK BECAUSE IT'S IN A DIFFERENT CONTEXT... if you do.....then don't get bent out of shape when someone else uses A WORD out of context and it pisses you off. It's not "OK" when a BLACK comedian uses it, it's not "OK" when boys-n-tha-hood use it, it's not "OK" when ANYONE uses it. Period, end of discussion. Again, you can polish that turd all you want and make excuses for it, but it's still a turd. Wanna be a turd? Wanna be a polished turd? Then keep using vernacular that you yourself don't want used onto you.

We have poverty.
We have people begging for food and money.
We have dead politicians getting elected.
We have a war going on where our countrymen are dying everyday.
We have terrorism.
We have unprotected borders.
We have children killing children.
We have drugs that get 92 yr old ladies killed.........

Is it REALLY that important for us to worry about what Tom Cruise was wearing on his wedding to someone he's already fathered a child with yet calls himself religious or if Brittney Spears made a video having sex with her HUSBAND, or if Clay Aiken is gay or not, or if Rosie O'donnell is using the View as her own platform for the Gay movement.....?????


......or even if Kramer (who is a character from a CANCELLED TV SHOW) acted like a jackass???????

Aren't there more important issues to concentrate on?
