Train Wrecks
Kramer Rant Boosts DVD Sales

SeinfeldIt seems that there really is no such thing as bad press -- even press generated by racist tirades.

Sales of season seven of "Seinfeld" are up 75% over season six and 90% over season five -- after one week of sales, according to website DVD Empire. Meanwhile, DeepDiscountDVD.com reports a staggering 178% increase over season six. Sales are up despite Jesse Jackson calling for a boycott.

Seasons five and six were released on the same day last year. TMZ's video of Michael Richards' hideous harangue was first seen on November 20 -- one day before season seven was released. Richards went on "The Late Show with David Letterman" that same night to apologize.

To paraphrase Seinfeld ... is there anything wrong with that?

77. Why are blacks on here arguing with the caucasian? Stop thriving off of hatred and deal with understanding. Caucasians are hundreds of years in a mentality of imperialism and sickening denial. Even Momma Oprah can't fix this disease for them. Their hatred is in the psyche, to the womb. If blacks would god damn read for a change, they'd read the evolution and nature of the Caucasian. Notice I said evolution, meaning "its" existence evolved from a species that already existed. But anything "second" natured, cloned or grafted is not as sweet as its first fruit.

Self hatred is imposed on every other indigeneous people and unfortunately, it's fallen for.....thats why you GOTTA respect the caveboyz for their "gangsterism". They've managed to convince an entire world that they're a civilized people. LoL. What a damn joke. Stop getting mad over these dogs. Literally. (People that not even a hundred years ago ripped body parts off of blacks as a ritual for front page newspaper covers.) So f*** 400 years, 50 years is right caveboy Kramer. Which means you were about 5 or 6 at the time probably chewing on a chopped black boy's wonder wand. The FIRST form of Viagra. Ha Ha!

Just cause the Native Americans cleaned their dirty, savage uncivilized asses up to a suit and a tie does not constitute a civilized people. All these bastards got a strap on up the ass under their pants (the men) and the women have clit ticklers on at work. Freaks.............

THE CAVEMAN ROCKS (at a hell of a Sodom and Gomorrah party)

78. "67. our comments: At 59 ........The American Indians were too drunk to care...after
being raped, robbed and screwed!!! Do you EVER see the real native
americans?? NO you do not!!! You are Crazy"

What you blaming the Native americans now for your predicament? You are a racist little, little slug of a human being. Why so much hate towards Native Americans?

79. #77-Another two cents....So, would it be fair to say that you believe all N*ggers (as you called them) are ungrateful, because you heard on the news about ONE N*gger Family (as you called them) got a free house and "flipped" it for profit? Would it be fair to say that this is your position? Is it fair to say that you are referring to your race when you say, "they don't appreciate anything, we give them..."? Would that race be white? What is your point here?

What if I told you that I believe that all WHITE people are child molesters, because I know of ONE my neighborhood? Would that be a fair assumption? Are you 12? People (not races) are responsible for their individual behavior. You all need to grow up and take responsibility for your own actions, thoughts, words, etc.

80. Too Silly - you really sound TOO SILLY. Michael Richards doesn't speak for all of Caucasian America - just for douche bags who post messages like yours. Just as Jesse Jackson OBVIOUSLY doesn't speak for all of Black America - LOOK AT THE DAMN DVD SALES!! I'm trying hard to refrain from calling anymore names here, but your logic is friggin' ridiculous.

(How ironic that you're American Indian (so you say) and don't see a problem with stigmatizing and talking sh*t about an entire race of people. Did growing up on the reservation make you love white people that much? Because they sure did a lot for you guys, huh? Or maybe your lack of socialization is why you don't know any positive images of Blacks - just what MTV is paid to sell you. Better yet, think about this - we're supposed to deal with anything that gets handed our way, but American Indians have high rates of alcoholism because of their depression over what happened to their heritage. Why don't you just cope, hmm? And why can't these white kids I went to college alongside stop crying about affirmative action - "oh, my daddy lost his job at the mill...I couldn't get a scholarship..." JUST COPE! If all races are "racist", you need to admit that all races "piss and moan" - or is that too inconvenient to your bigotry? Friggin' ridiculous, man.... Glad my social circle includes people outside of the black race who defy the stereotypes you people are presenting here....Otherwise I might be bitter too...)

* Continuing to laugh my educated black ass off at you *

83. I'm just saying shouldn't a "supposed" civil rights leader, be held to a HIGHER standard. Then say a normal average person?Like Michael Richards who is a COMEDIAN who was doing a comedy routine.

Chris Rock built his career on his "the Difference between a Nword and a black man" routine. Double standards and HUGE GLARING Hypocrisy, but no one black cares to see this?

No, not if that "supposed" civil rights leader is black. According to most posters here it's irrelevant, that Jesse Hijackson refers to NYC as "Hymietown". And as long as your leaders are known racists. You will continue to be racist yourselves. Blame whitey, the white devil did it...

WHY IS THAT?

oh and yeah I am supposedly Am-Indian like you are supposedly black? Thanks but I verified my lineage last time this came up, you'll just have to trust me.

Also I currently reside in Los Angeles trust me I see blacks.

I find it amusing you called me a douche bag, when I have made not one derogatory comment towards ANY RACE. Hmm go figure, I guess I am a douche bag, for reminding everyone that Jesse Jackson is a racist?

Wow you have issues honey.

85. "But until Black "Civil Rights Leaders" (LMAO) stop perpetuating racism. And constantly playing the race card, people of ANY color will ALWAYS see right through. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are BOTH KNOWN RACISTS.
Oh wait it's okay for black men to refer to NYC as "Hymietown"...right that's not racism?????? Could you imagine what would happen if a white leadership type called ANY town "N" word Town? Even your double standard is racist!"


Yeaaahhh....no derogatory statements about any race, right? Try again. You're not arguing a righteous point, no matter how you try to play YOUR card, buddy....

86. "LOL You stupid idiots in your own native country can't figure how to put on a condom or keep their dicks in their pants and are dying by the thousands of AIDS everyday"

Yeah. God knows no white males have died of AIDS. Especially not thousands of them. Read a book much?


And Too Silly - with your "great intellectual prowess" - why was it that you chose to identify yourself with the statement "douche bags who make statements like yours?" I didn't call YOU one - but if you can explain that, you can explain why you didn't address my statements that Jesse OBVIOUSLY doesn't speak for all Blacks. Wasn't that clean cut enough for you? And I'd prefer it if you didn't call me "honey" - I find it patronizing. * sighs *

87. As far as a "leader" being held to a higher standard? Yeah, Gee Dubya is a paragon of morality..... ROFLMAO. Try another point of view, PLEASE!!

And "who the f*** is OPRAH some rich bitch who has a billion dollars and dosn't help her own people!" - how did she get billions? Because the white "bitches" love her. Yeah, you're real smart too....

You guys have fun rolling in your muck...I'm off to buy some DVDs. HA!!

88. Too Silly: you sound as if you are quite intelligent. Here's a tip for you: don't try to reason with blacks on this forum. While you state your opinion thoughtfully and without resorting to profane language, you are met with insults and generalizations because the people you're talking to ARE TOO STUPID TO DO ANYTHING ELSE. That's why they will always be at the bottom of the food chain. They are unwilling to change their behavior or accept themselves for what they are. They will merely threaten physical violence, sexual violence or curse. Very sad since Jews and American Indians have had to overcome just as much. They don't whine 400 years later. Nor do Jews/Indians use past experience as a never ending excuse for why they can't get ahead. The same old"Whitey be holding me down". My answer to that is what whitey is holding you down in all the African nations that are in a state of chaos? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

@ # 81

Just in case you think I am exaggerating about raping babies as a CURE for AIDS in africa.Please read AP article:

How about another:

And another:

Now you want to continue your little rant about the white man not being civilized? I don't hear of any African Americans in America doing this sh*t, perhaps you learned a few manners from "whitie caveman"? LOL How about the crime stats for blacks in America? Want them next dearie?

90. Hmm I see nothing derogatory there sweetie, sorry. Only facts I made no personal judgements on ANY RACE did I?

Only the fact that those two charlatans call themselves "Civil rights leaders". Yea I find that funny personally, because who's civil rights are they talking about? Ooops ONLY Black peoples..yeah that's racist =/

And yeah my point stands Jesse is a racist, the man admittedly dislikes people of the jewish faith. And I don't see how you can NOT see my point except that, maybe it's over your head? OR you just REFUSE to hear anything you disagree with.

You CANNOT disagree with the FACT of what Jesse said, it's done he said it, is he racist?


Selah , I think if you go back a bit you will see that I KNOW that Jesse speaks for himself and three other Super Militant Black people. Doesn't make him right, just like MR wasn't right. BUT MR IS NOT A "Supposed" black leader. I don't trot Jesse out there as a "black leader" blacks and liberal media types do that.

Also you DID call me out, you do see the word "YOURS" there right? And you were replying to me ......so.....

Thanks it's been fun but now I have to commute in LA traffic wheeeee. I harbor no hard feelings towards any of you no matter how ugly it got. I am here to find people to have these fun sometimes heated exchanges with. Hope to see you all tomorrow, and hopefully we can have a NEW TOPIC =P

Night all.
