61. First of all Jeff, I am at work at a prestigous PR Firm in Los Angeles, California... I have never received a welfare check in my life, because I am single with no children, and have worke ever since I graduated from college. Why don't you get your pathetic little dick ass, off the couch, put the beer down, and stop living off of your trailer trash welfare recipient toothless , stringy haired, girlfirend who has given birth to two of your children out of wedlock, and get a fucking job. I have seen those types of black people as well as judges, senators police office actors, teachers etc. It seems you don't get out much, but the places you DO go to are surrounded by black people much like the white people you associate with. Oh and Jeff I doubt that any of the situations that you claim happened, where you freely used the "N" word amongst a group of black people yet alone one black person is a total an ultimate fabrication. I am woman and I know that I could whip your little dicked ass, with one hand tied behind my back... I'm 5'6 and 125 lbs , so if you are evr in Los Angeles, look around for an angry black, and spew that racist hate and you'll get exactly what's coming to you.... YOU DON"T KNOW WHO THE FUCK "I" AM JEFFREY ;-(

63. I watched Richards apoligize on Letterman. What was even more disturbing was the fact that the audience was laughing and Letterman never said anything to them. It was Seinfeld who told them to shut up. This is the type of people we are dealing with in todays society. It's a shame. Seinfeld had to tell them (audience) that it was not funny. Just sad!

64. To #10: So, in your opinion, Black comedians can make fun of every race, but white comedians can make fun of everyone except Blacks? That does not make sense to me. If someone heckles you, I'd say anything and everything is fair game. As the saying goes, if you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

I feel bad for "Kramer" because I don't see how he digs himself out of this one.

65. Do you really want me to get over it? When MR donates his last season of pay from the Seinfeld show to the poor African country of Malawi I'll get over it.

Well N Buffington? you seem like part of the problem with America.

Cash not values, is that what you are all about? Money makes everything better not morals? reparations is what you want for all blacks, admit it. If thats what you dont want then say it.

Why dont rich BLACK people donate money to help poor African countries? can you answer that? because most blacks are corrupt and dont have any moral values to begin with. Is that harsh? no, and notice I said MOST not all.

I can point to 2 great Americans of color, Bill Cosby and Larry Elder

Your idea of donating cash to some African country is sickening. Why not deal with the cause of the poverty there? its either islam or paganism holding the people in oppression, yet dont deal with the real cause, just "donate cash" and thats supposed to fix everything? thats why I say NO MORAL VALUES because like most blacks who are democrat or liberal you cannot make up your own mind on what values are, its what the majority thinks.

Why dont you protest the sick goings on in your own house? the black rap music? the gutter trash mentality blacks are so proud of today?

Blacks or people of color do not have the right to protest what Kramer said, they should laugh and say we do the same thing, we all need to be more careful about being racist.

to suggest Kramer is the only racist on the surface of the planet? shows youre not on this one

66. You're welcome Arlo Weed Jr.

Whatever your personal stereotype of a black girl is, it will be what it is... I don't really care. Don't get upset ebcause I don't agree with the bigotry that a poster is spewing. I can curse because I'm adult and don't like the fact that anyone deserves to be considered less than a human being whether that person is white, black etc... You don't know whether I am "truthfully" a BLACK girl or not ;-) This is a message board where you can pretend to be anything you want to be, ignorant, educated or otherwise...

Posted at 1:03PM on Nov 21st 2006 by DIARY OF A MAD BLACK GIRL ;-)

67. The one thing that everybody that has agreed with Mr Richards forgets is, there are still people in this country and the world that had lived through the heartache and heartbreak of that word. They fought hard to make sure that not just black people but every nationality never feels that pain for future generations to come. No matter who says it (black, white, brown, or martian) it should never be the last resort to win an arguement, and to me that was Mr Richards' purpose. He wasnt educating or even tongue in cheek, he was angry and wanted to cut deep, so he chose what would make the biggest, uglest, most mind bending scar, and thats the difference or "the big deal".

70. Has anyone ever turned on to BMT channel? It's sad when your own race makes fun of it's own race of PEOPLE for a dollar. I have heard way too much racial slurring and degrading from their comedians to speak about their own race. Perhaps there is a lesson to be learn here. Don't speak badly about your race and then perhaps others wouldn't . You send out a horrible message to ALL people.It's disgraceful how you speak about yourselves and your race. You don't find any other race that does this on public television. If you wish to be respected than respect yourself first. It may be O.K for one black to call another black a nigger, but its sends out a really bad message to ALL people. It kind of says its O.K because I can earn money and make my race laugh because of the color of my skin. But no other race can do so. SO VERY SAD WHEN YOU DEMORALIZE ANY PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF THEIR RACE. PEOPLE START TO RESPECT ONE ANOTHER NO MATTER WHAT YOUR RACE MAY BE We are all from different races and no matter what it may be respect where you roots come from and what they have achieved to get us past this stupidity.I thought we were long past this but tune into your television and tell me why this is still going on. God is watching and so are the people!!!!

71. No one can preclude criticism or racism.

Sure black comedians make fun of ALL ethnic groups, but nine times out of ten we make fun of ourselves. Spoken from a black woman; I hate the fact that black people "make up" names for their children, not for the fact that their trying to be creative, but it's just hard to remember a name that is uncommon or that doesn't relate to anything. I'm sure the first thing that comes to everyone's mind after hearing a bizarre name, the parents of that child must lack education or common sense and some of the names are out in left field. I wonder WHERE IN THE HELL did they come up with that. I guess I'm pushing the same dialogue as Bill Cosby.

Unknowingly, we all set ourselves up for criticism.

Also, not all black people run to the NCAA or the Rainbow Coalition when something like this happens, I believe most of the time affirmative action takes place when there is a threat to the lively hood of black people. Sure some black people ruin opportunities for themselves, as well as white and hispanic. I believe it's to much focus on color and not what's in a man's heart. When we die race won't have anything to do with whether we lived our lives to the best of our ability.
So I won't hold Mr. Richards comments against him. His comments has hurt him more than the guys he were directing them to. Right now he has to live with public embarrassment (the media is good for that), not the entire AFRICAN AMERICAN community.

72. arlo weed jr. - So you want to stop Rap is what I'm getting from you. Good point. Let's finally get the "cool to be ghetto" out from the kids and start educating their asses.

SHANN - Racist trash? reeeealllly...? oh well... If it comes from someone who can't write more than 1 line in bold characters... Prove us wrong, prove to us that the Black community never say anything racist... Prove it... If you can't... Then get the pitchfork and apologize to the rest of us. (I'm gueesing this last comment will make your head explode...)

I used to be pretty much biased as to the color of one's skin, then I worked in a Music Store and guess what? 78% of the stuff that got stolen was Rap music. Who mostly buys Rap music? Ok.. Now more than 4 out of 5 times we catched a black kid/man that stole from the store, they started yelling at us and saying we were a bunch of racist white trash. Guess what, we smiled and then we showed my good buddy's wife. Black as you can get. They continued with their rambling calling us racists, and all that shit. Didn't fase us at all. More than 75% of the poeple we caught were blacks stealing, the other 25% was divided with little white boys trying to be blacks and stealing Rap Crap and the rest of the population. Did we do "Racial Profiling"? Probably did, maybe not so much of a racial profiling as too "Musical Preferences Profiling" and it saved a lot of money in theft for the store.

I have never been so blasted by the blacks in my life than those 4 years. And by the time I left the store, they had made me more racist than I ever was. And that's a fact. So white trash... If it means not being a softy "oh my god you can't say that.. that racist" and being someone who lives in reality, then let it be. You have the right to your opinion.

73. This is the problem in America......racism. If comedians make fun of all people all the time and using racial slurs, it is only perpetuating the problem. If Richards had yelled the N word only once, it "might" have been overlooked. But he clearly yelled it and repeated it, in anger. His introspect will tell him he is racist.

Give thanks to all you secular-progressives and your "free speech". To counter-argue the point that it is free-speech or that it was not meant, is standard-issue S-P response.

But keep the stories going TMZ. It makes for good ratings......RIGHT?
