Michael Richards is a Racist Shit
Watch the following video and you'll see what I'm talking about.
Naturally, all the racist idiots are already out "explaining" how it's alright for this waste of oxygen to call members of his audience "niggers", seeing as some black people do so to each other "all the time", as if context didn't matter, and any foolish acts by certain black people made it open season on all of them; still others are engaging in a big ol' pity party, dishing out nonsense like the following:
offense sensitivity runs amokMethinks the US Drug Enforcement Agency needs to pay a visit to anybody so obviously out of touch with reality - you've got to be on hardcore drugs to think white Christian males have it worst in the USA, and hey, the American definition of "black" is so elastic that any "oppressed" white male wishing to join the club could get in (and they wouldn't even have to stop being male or Christian!), though none ever bother to try for their share of the good times, for some strange reason ... Still other bigots try to push the blame for Richards' remarks on those to whom he directed them:
Equality is such a fantasy.
BET
Latin Music Awards
Minority Scholarships.
Thats equality for you.
In the world I live in it sucks more to be a white Christian male than anything else.
I think that "Kramer" was pushed into a corner by a rude member of the audience, and responded with an attempt at being shocking, which horribly backfired.This is undiluted, 200% proof nonsense. I've been on the end of a lot worse than heckling in my time on this Earth, and never once have I felt the urge to respond with racial and religious epithets: sure, I've called people "assholes", "bastards", "motherfuckers", "shitheads" and much more, but reaching for terms like "kike", "spick", "faggot" or even the faintly ridiculous "cracker"? Never, not once, not even in the heat of one-on-one physical provocation.
As I said with Mel Gibson, the only reason one would reach for such language to begin with is because such thoughts were already lurking in one's mind - only a person who tends to blame entire groups for the flaws of some of its members would think the right response to being heckled by one black person is to display your contempt and hatred for all of them by shouting "nigger! nigger!", making references to lynchings and telling him to shut up when "a white man is speaking". Michael Richards is a racist loser, and if he ever works again in Hollywood or TV it will be a slap in the face to black people everywhere.
PS: You want to see bigots engaging in projection? Look no further than the USAToday blog, where we have gems like the following.
I agree, blacks are the most racist.Now, apart from the fact that the claim that "blacks are the most racist" is an easily refuted falsehood (the opposite is in fact the reality), what exactly does any of this have to do with Michael Kramer's outburst? But such non-sequiturs are precisely what one would expact of people incapable of thinking of blacks as individuals rather than as one collective negative stereotype, and you only have to take a look at how many of them are on forums like this one and Fark to realize just how widespread anti-black prejudice remains in modern, "tolerant", "diverse" America.They are allowed to be racist. It is amazing to me that they can get away with it and blame everybody else for their terrible situation. As soon as they cry "racism", business and media rolls over on their back in a submissive doggie position. I am encouraged, from these posting, that a at least a mojority of the people feel the same way as I.
You are not a slave, you do not need to join a gang, you do not need to have a baby at 15, you do not need to inpregnate and move on. What you need to do is shut your mouth, study, and take responsibilty for your actions, and don't blame sombody else.
