Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are old news. (How did you hear about them making racial comments about Jews? Most likely on the news, at some point.) Mel Gibson is current events.

Yeah, it is a double standard. Any comments of the like should be denounced. I think Jesse and Al are just not taken seriously like they used to be, so it would be like yelling into the wind. I don't think anyone is suprised by them anymore.

That's not so. There have been several flaps about JJackson's racial comments. I don't think I've ever heard of Al Sparpton.

I agree that it is a double standard just like affirmative action. But considering how long anglos have suppressed the rest of the nations voice, I think I can live with it a while longer.

very unusual.
anybody says anything about jews anywhere
and you pretty much end up in jail.
fined or hated,or on the front page
of every news paper.
you;d think they would have something better to do.
than go around trying to convict everybody .

theres your answer......there is a very, very real double standard.....did you know that when jesse was younger he was a waiter at a restaurant in his hometown in south carolina and he bragged that he spit in the food of white patrons? yeah, he said it made him feel good.....one thing for sure, martin luther king would have been sadden and angry at the current civil rights 'leaders'

What's the point? They'll just throw it back at the people accusing them of being racist and claim that they are the ones being racist for trying to keep them quiet

Double standard. Untouchable because of political correctness.
This is news to you?
