The "Don Imus Controversy" (rutgers women's basketball, nappy headed ho's, etc) Options

[JerzDevil]

I'm a few days late on this but ... what a old dirty racist bastard, Imus is. For those who are not familiar with him, he is an American comedian and talk show host. He criticized the rutgers women's basketball team (the starting 5 whom are all african-american) by calling them "nappy headed ho's". There's a player on that team that graduated from our high school (who is the only white on that team), and I wonder how she re-acted to this.

NEW YORK - Don Imus was under fire, his job was in jeopardy, and his big mouth was to blame.

This was 1969, at a small radio station in Stockton, Calif., and the nascent disc jockey was the target of outrage for rattling local sensibilities by uttering a bad word on the air: “hell.” Imus was fired, but — in what became a continuing pattern — the controversy only boosted his profile and career prospects.

The up-and-down arc of Imus’ nearly 40 years in broadcasting bottomed out Thursday after his mouth finally went too far. The veteran DJ, who mingled political punditry with his penchant for pushing the boundaries of bad taste, was fired for ridiculing the Rutgers women’s basketball team as “nappy-headed hos.”

Damn, he deserved to get fired! What a racist bastard. This just proves my point more that a lot of white people in this country are dirty. I understand that. But I know that the blacks got really offended (which I assume) from his comment. Seriously though, the blacks need to chill down. Just take Imus as a whitebread redneck in their heads, and get over it. You don't see many asians or hispanics wilding out as much as blacks when they get offended from a racial comment. I'm just saying. But Imus deserved to lose his job for this. I have the right to verbally treat Imus like shit now. Was he formerly in the KKK or something? Seems like it. Hey whites, think about it. (For those who make racist jokes towards other races) ... just think about. This is the reason why you guys make black people go crazy like animals. Don Imus. Why can't we make peace in this country? Imus went too far ... He should've said at least something like "Just kidding folks" or some shit like that, after that comment. What a dumbass.

So much for denouncing racism.
