this is the biggest load of bull shit i have ever heard kicking don imus off of msnbc...big fuckin deal...ive been saying nappy headed hoes all day long ever since i heard that. Imus is a great voice for the more intelligent half of americans (democrats). I think msnbc made a pretty big mistake here.

to everyone who is talking about how it's dumb imus got fired because south park and borat are racists...
it's totally differnt when a comedy show makes racist jokes. it's a comedy show, they have carte blanche to do whatever they please. don imus, however, is not a comedian. therefore, whatever he says is to be taken as literal, not satirical. he has been in the business long enough to know that what he said was stupid. do i think that people like al sharpton and jesse jackson go to far? yes. do i think that don imus should have been fired because of what he said? yes.

TURN OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK, IT DOESNT MAKE YOU MORE CREDIBLE. and quit throwing out that "fucking liberals" term you keep using, as it makes you seem completley ignorant, and wont make you to many friends on here. And that duke lacrosse thing was not against the whites. if it had been a bunch of black guys and a white girl accused them of raping her, people would have sided with the girl at first as well. Pretty much with any rape case, before the trial, nobody is going to call somebody who is potentially a victim a liar, and with good reason. before the trial, at which point it hadnt become obvious that she was fulla shit, the public had no reason to believe that she was lying.

Dude you have no clue, you are the definition of "liberal" by saying "wont make you any friends on here" a liberal is only concerened on how others think of them not what is right and wrong,,, and you have your head screwed on so tight that you cant get over the fact how i spell Imos. haha.
And the Duke thing,,, if you think that case wasnt misshandled you are mistaken,,,, they are looking at suing the prosecuter in the case becuase he jumped all over the duke kids with the liberal media who took the bait and made them look guilty. even though there were no facts to back up her claims.

Ok Gin_Blossom or whatever the fuck your name is. You're saying that Don Imus saying 'nappy headed hos' was not in the slight bit racist? If George Bush said that the country would be appalled! Don't give me that shit about liberals either you can't generalize millions of people because of 1 guy you dumb fucking moron. Jesus christ I wish I could ban dumb ass ignorant fucks such as yourself.

^you are a twat, I was saying that he shouldn't say "fucking liberals" as this is about half of the population, and its not a very educated way to go about a debate. how often do you see people saying "fucking conservatives" and I said he wont make many friends, but I wouldn't say he wont make any, because I know that there are others on here that think it was because of the "fucking liberal media" that Imus got fired. if you were in charge, and all of your big sponsors are dropping the show, making it no longer profitable, what would you do? and as I said before, it also isnt because Imus is white, if there were a black anchorman, and he called a predominently white girls basketball team a bunch of white trash floozies, he would be fired as well.

but it was. al sharpton jumps in and tells the girl to lie. HE IS known to do this. a lot of years back, he did the same shit in my area (this is where he got his name out according to my economics teacher). same thing, a black girl was raped but a white kid and he jumped in and made it a hundreds times worse and it turns out the girl was LYING. and now that kid's life is ruined, as well as the duke players. its complete bullshit and if i could, i would give that guy a piece of my mind.
want a real black hero? how bout jackie robinson or king jr, those are the real hero's. fuck sharpton

Al Sharpton would have had good intentions in the 60's, but let's face it, racism is almost non-existant about blacks anymore.
Let's turn tables a bit. What about racism ACTUALLY prevelant in today's society. How many cab drivers are going to stop for a man with a turban and a suitcase? I'm pretty sure every cab driver in NYC would stop for a black man in a suit over a man in a turban with a suitcase.
The world takes things far too literally and it's sad. Al Sharpton makes a living off of stupid little incidents that get blown out of proportion with his radicalism. He's a fucking obnoxious man that beleives he is the next Malcom X and savior of the black race. Fuck him and what he stands for. Malcom X saw real racism. Al Sharpton is just creating a problem with the races of black and white. How can the two races ever be equal if every fucking crime done between the two races is automatically assumed to be because of the other person's skin color. It's such a fucking ass backwards concept. If we are all created equal and we want to see ourselves as equal, then we can't have racism be such a heavily misunderstood concept.
Why is it that when two black men mug a white guy that it isn't racist behavior? Why when a black man rapes a white girl it isn't racist aggrivated rape? You know damn well if a white male or two white males were to rape a black girl it would have racism as the first motivation for the rape.

I heard on the radio today that Sharpton's step daughter is a player for Rutgers. Anybody know if this is true? If so, that'd be the straight up explanation for this whole fiasco.

im just soo fuckin fed up of it all. Who gives a shit....every god damn channel I turn it to its DON IMUS this, or DON IMUS that. Who gives a fuck, the dude was trying to be edgy and modern at the same time. It didn't work out, and hes fucked....THE END. Its soo over blown its not even funny, by the media, by both sides, by everybody. He said nappy headed hoes.......OHHH MY GOD....GAHHHH MY PRECIOUS HEAD IS GOING TO EXPLOAD. There are many worst things being told on TV ,INTERNET and NEWPAPERS around the world. Is it right....probably not, but does blowing out at all ends make it right....NO. Just please media, let it die.

Excellent post.
Racism definitely still exists, especially if you head South (first convenience store you see crossing over from VA to NC is called Dixieland. It has a huge Confederate flag hung in front, and the workers are all black with a fat white manager... yeah...) but Al Sharpton is completely blowing it out of proportion. As you said, not everything is race-related, and that's what this tool would have all of us believe if he could.
That being said, to the kid who posts in all caps, you're perhaps just as dumb. The key to making people listen is by making intelligent arguments, not capitalizing everything and throwing out racial slurs. That just makes you look like an idiot and actually makes your argument and anyone who supports it look idiotic. More importantly, you're a white kid who probably lives in some suburban neighborhood. You're not as infuriated by this as you say you are, it doesn't affect you whatsoever. Calm down, champ.

msnbc is out to make money, and don imus's comments resulted in many sponsors pulling their ads from their network. I agree that we should have free speech and all, but in a capatalist society, money talks, and because of that, don imus wont be talking on tv or radio anytime soon.

i know, i'm not knocking on that at all, all companies are out to make money, its perfectly normal. I'm just saying that if don imus's comments didnt result in msnbc losing sponsors he probably wouldnt have been taken off the air. I also think that msnbc was just doing what was in their best interest and there is nothing wrong with that.

i don't think so. but i know sharpton brought his daughter on his radio show the day imus went on his show and he asked imus is he thought his daughter was a nappy haired ho.

i know, i was responding to miscratch. but yeah, its unfair that since one guy got so worked up about it he got imus fired. South park was so right making fun of al sharpton or jesse jackson cause they really do think they are the emporors of black people. What really sucks is that the rutgers team accepted the apology but since some figure head didnt the world is still angry about it. And whats even worse is that white america believes whatever the two "emporors" say represents all of black america( but maybe they do, i sure as hell dont know)

Do you seriously have to say LIBERAL Al Sharpton. He by no means represents the ideaology of most liberals. If you have some sort of political bias, don't use it to generalize the actions of one radical. God damn I hate when people like you do that. Even though I may not be liberal or conservative, I sure as hell respect both parties enough not to genearlize the whole group on one person.

what are you you taliking anout? im not talking about a party. I'm talking abut an ideology (liberalism), so like you said,,,,lets leave the whole party thing out of this. And yes, I have every right (on the bases of sharpton's virews) to call him a liberal.

First of all...people that accept the ideology of liberalism ARE a party. A party doesn't necessarily mean Republican, Democrat, etc. It is a group of people that share a similar belief too. So yes, you ARE talking about a party when you say liberal.
Sure you can call him a liberal, but you don't have to use it in every post. He is an extreme version of the modern libertarian. There is no need to drag a title into his name that he doesn't do a good job of representing.

I agree, when you're saying liberal you make it sound like all liberals agree or share similar beliefs as Al Sharpton, trying to make it seem like all liberals are bad people.

We are talking political parties here and I'm from Canada and we do have a "liberal" party, but as far as the US is concerned it is called Republican and democrat. Lets not get all philosophical here. you had not basis to get your panties in a bunch a few posts back. I was talking about an ideaology not a party.
And excuse me fo calling him a liberal,,, lets not beat around the bush and call it what it is,,,,a liberal.
Sorry if you dont like it.

Soo not true its not even funny. Racism still exists its just hidden in society. Black people still get payed less, they recieve less job opportunities, and large portions of them are essentially bred into the prison system by white politicians. Not to mention the way they are generally portrayed in movies and pop culture
