He is not a real comedian anyway. When comedians are doing standup do you think that everyone in the audience is going to like their show.? No. So someone said he wasn't funny. BOO HOO.  A real comedian would have come back with a statement that was funny not hurtful.

Chris Rock does it all the time.....no one says anything. The other black comedians do it and no one says anything. I admit that Michael Richards was waaaaaaaaay over the line. But let a white comedian even hint at the "n" word or something close to it and whamo! he's automatically a racist. Sheeeeesh.

I am watching it now...will tell ya what I think in a minute...\nOK I'm back\nwow, that was pretty powerful to me...I couldn't stop watching it but after about 30 minutes it cut me off I did get to hear some of and read all of the letter he wrote..I really don't no what to say there's so much going through my mind...I really honestly don't know how to feel, kinda confused...I'll try to explain but like I said I just don't no what to think,,,at first I thought, OK all he's worried about is his people saying this affected so many black family's and he didn't mention any other race...then I kept thinking who the heck is allah..mohamid..never heard of him in my life and really don't believe in him...then i read the letter and my thoughts are the presidents doesn't really listen to any ones advice...I thought it was a very powerful and informative letter and I liked alot of what he said and in some ways it should of been taken seriously..at times it kind of scared me...I walked away with confusing thoughts and not really knowing what to think...what did you think of it?

I don't believe Mel Gibson is dead yet...Being drunk and not being filmed helped him out a little. Michael Richards on the other hand  I believe his career was dead and buried before he even made those comments..Which by the ...I think it's a double standard due to the fact that rappers say the "N" word (No I don't use it!!) every other word!! And you hear all these little hip hop clowns refer to themselves as it again every other word...I have no problem with the fact that he snapped and called them something they probably refered to themselves as all day long anyway....It was the comment that precipitated it\n\n"If it was 50 years ago you'd be hanging upside down with a fork in your a*s" That blew my mind...\n\nSomething like that just doesn't roll off your tongue unless you've thought about it before..That was unbelievably offensive and crossed every there was to cross in my mind!! The dudes career has been dead for years. So I can't even say he buried himself with that comment...But he sure let people know where his mind lies..He's racist no if's ands or buts about it.

I mos def think people are sleeping on him.. He's super sick wit it!!! I luv his soulfulness and it comes even harder becuz he doesnt look like he can boast out a vocal like that almost like Christina Aguilera. But hes fabolous and is married to a beautiful black woman to I may add. A couple of my girls went to his video shoot for the song "Wanna Luv U Girl" feat Bustah Rhymes and they said he was really down-to-earth.

This is a very interesting site, to answer your Question, they thought the black man had no heart, no feelings that they were ignorant.  God Bless the Black Man's History, may we never forget their hardships.

yes it is hypocrisy. you are right.some say that we took the word from whites to take the control of our identity as black americans.i use the word.i use those other words too.this is the real killer, in private there are still white folks that call blacks, the n-word.and there are black folks that call white people, whatever it is we say in private.i think that he is lucky that the black folks in the audience did kick his azz.i'm not saying any of those words are right all i know is we have to live with people and sometimes people say the craziest things.i would not stand up in a room full of white people and say derogatory things, because i would not want the shoe to be on the other foot. and im with you his career is totally over.

As bad as his comment was what about towards the end of the incident when they called him a "Cracker" and a "F**cking Whiteboy" And I havent heard anything about their apology's for their racist remarks yet..\n\nIt's a double standard! The fact that rappers say the "N" word (No I don't use it!!) all the time!! And you hear all these little hip hop clowns refer to themselves as it again every other word...I have no problem with the fact that he snapped and called them something they probably refered to themselves as all day long anyway....It was the comment that precipitated it\n\n"If it was 50 years ago you'd be hanging upside down with a fork in your a*s" That blew my mind...\n\nSomething like that just doesn't roll off your tongue unless you've thought about it before..That was unbelievably offensive and crossed every line there was to cross in my mind!!

Yet another whitewashed fast-forwarded version of black history. \n\nBlack people as a group are not 'angry'.  Some are angry; some don't care. My God...  And at this point I'd like to point out that we do not all mindlessly follow the lead of anyone put in front as some of you have stated. Don't beleive everything you read in the media ok?  Nobody whips black people up into a frenzy. Personally I don't know anyone who pays any attentiont to Al Sharpton.  Some of you are so insensitive and out of touch, it's ridiculous. \n\nTopics like this make me angry. People are just talking all out of their a_sses. How can people outside of a community speak for what goes on inside of it? I don't tell white people that black people have not discriminated against them. Why tell us that racism against us is a thing of the past?  You don't even know what being black in this country is or even means...\n\nAlso the black experience in this country is above and beyond slavery. What did you think?  Slavery ended. Slave and slave master just skipped off into the damned sunset, hand in hand singing  'Shiny Happy People' ? \n\nGive me a break.\nDisparities and negative atttudes about race do exist. For instance, black people are less likely to be hired. Did you know that? If not I don't know why because there have been several studies on the topic. It's the truth. I have a friend who was discouraged by the receptionist of a company from putting her more 'black-sounding' name on the application because the manager 'would be less likely to hire her'.   What do you think of this? \nEven black latinos in this country catch hell. For merely looking black. They are worse off than their whiter-looking counterparts.  They are subjected to the same economic and social treatment as us. The sad thing is some of them just got here and had no idea things were this f****ed up!   \nThis is a direct reflection of your so-called colorblind society. Because if black looking individuals who have nothing to do with the black experience can claim the same amount of injustice that black people supposedly whine about what does that really say to you about the progress of this country?  \n\nLet's end it here.  \nYou just don't get it; I will not even try to go into it with you. \n\nCan all of our problems be blamed on racism.  Yes (historically speaking) and no. The black community is at a crossroads. I won't get into it but we cannot let go of the past because the past still affects them.  However despite the institutionalized racism kept in place for decades black folks have got to come to terms with it.  We must get out of the victim role loop. No matter what has happened we must push forward.  We have no choice . The governement doesn't care. In truth it never did. \n\nAnd you say we should be thanking white people for enslaving the African to begin with? You deserve a good hard slap for that.\n\nThis country has completely f****d over an entire race of people.  My grandmother was begat out of rape--a product of her mother's white captors. The same is true for many blacks although racist propaganda will tell you different. Why else do you think we come in so many different hues?  I don't care if you're grandaddy was Thomas Jefferson, Washington or Roosevelt--who would be proud to claim that kind of legacy? \nThe denial of education, of voting rights, owning land, the rights of a black woman to her own body, of a black man to protect her and his family...  What the hell does THAT tell you?  Black people were never meant to progress as a people in this country; We were never supposed to succeed.\n\nSuppose you'll tell me to go back to Africa if I don't like this country?  Well, Africa is not my home. The African lost his cultural identity and had his native tongue and religion beat out of him once he was shipped here. \n\n...and I'm not going any damned where. My

it is so much better that you asked me this question, rather than Michael Richards, the guy that played "Kramer", on Seinfeld....\n\nDawn French is married to a ........^^............;;..........++.................ll............_~_..............kj...............................a great British comic named Lenny Henry.  \n\nI am ashamed to be so racist in this answer, but I just hate anyone and everyone who's played a character named "Cosmo".

I don't know if he should have to pay anyone because of the remarks but he shouldn't get any more roles or jobs! By M. Jackson do you mean Michael Jackson? If so he has never been racist, he's black!\n\n♥♥We Love You Michael!!!!♥♥

Wow Mr. Curious that was incredibly rude.  I hate the idea of people hating other people's race. It's so stupid. No one should feel less than anyone else because every one has the power to be great.

Don't feel bad, he does that all of the time.  I consider myself fairly intelligent and most of his quotes leave me with that "Huh?" look on my face as well.\n\nOr as it says in Wtf 1:7 Woe to the dude who needeth to quothe the Bible neverendingly.  For he is the one that looseth everyone with quotes that mean nothing to anyone but himself.  Fresh peas on earth and to all a good night.
