Dog -- I'm No Imus!

TMZ has reached out to Dog the Bounty Hunter for comment on his racist rant, caught on audiotape and published by the National Enquirer. We were told Dog would not say anything, but we were referred to his pastor.
Dog the bounty hunter
Pastor Tim Storey, an African-American, told us that he spoke with Dog, who cried for 30 minutes, saying, "I'm shocked, I'm wrong I repent. Can you believe, Tim, that I'm going to be put in the same category as Imus."

Pastor Storey, whom USA Today has referred to as "Pastor to the stars," told TMZ, "I was shocked, because I don't know that to be Duane." He went on, "I felt that he had to be accountable to what he said. When I asked him what took place, why he said it, he said that he was angry with his son about many things."

The pastor, who performed Dog and Beth's wedding ceremony continued, "The subject of his son's girlfriend came up, and in his anger he then attacked that relationship and then therefore challenged the girl by saying she wasn't good enough."


Pastor Story said, "What shocked me was that he used the N word. I know he's not a racist. He's been to black churches with me to help inner-city kids."

The pastor said he talked to Dog three times today and he apologized, saying he wasn't angry at the girl, it was anger toward his son.

#9, LivnRaceFree..
you cant be serious. Nobody can be that stupid, so I hope you're kidding.

He uses the N word cuz he doesnt have a big vocabulary?

your stupidity is really on display. Shut up.

And if he "didnt mean" to use the word n*gger, why did he say it OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN?

Why would any educated person need to throw out the "N" word? I forgot, this man is an uneducated fool.

Dog is just digging his grave deeper... someone muzzle him, please!

Oh wait... let him talk... I am enjoying this!!!! For years I have had to endure a friends fascination with him: she thinks he is a living legend and hero of law enforcement. I gave up a long time ago trying to make her realize that most of the people that he takes down are ones that he put back out in the street, in the first place by bailing them out of jail. He doesn't do any of his bounty hunting out of the goodness of his heart... it does it out of the greediness of his wallet.

#20 you are speaking the truth. The only problem with Chapman is he was stupid enough to leave evidence. In this day and age he should of known better to leave any kind of message on any kind of recording device.

Funny, I heard him say on the tape that they use the "N" word all the time around there. That was his words not mine. He is a fake and a fraud. He exploits the underprivledged for personal gain. He himself is a convicted felon ("murderer") with a bigger rap sheet than most of the people he picks up for petty crimes and drugs. I never liked him and I am not one bit surprised by this.

USING THE "N" WORD DOES NOT.. I REPEAT......... DOES NOT MAKE YOU A RACIST... if you like it or not..... it is a word literally just tossed out there sometimes in conversation (even at white folks...it means after all, ignorant)... if you dont like it.. NObody should be using it.. but this is a free country and you cant/should'nt condemn the guy for it.. nor should A & E suspend his show either.. blown way out.. just like imus..

He has a "pastor" yet he cusses like a sailor? Interesting.

Im not sure how much pastoring is going on there, if this guy claims to be a churchgoing man but uses the F word and N word a lot.

Pastor Tim, talk to this man, please.

All I want to know, is when is he checking into rehab. He is going to need to blame the truth on something.
