Michael Richards why do we hate him for saying what we think?

Question

lets be honest there are times at movies and evnets where we run into poeple like that and cracker is not raceist???
tell the truth

Answer 1

Speak for yourself -- he didn't say what I think.

Answer 2

you know the moment some body screams out a racist slures his automatically a raceisted. It's not true when people are mad they will say anything that will hurt the most that will boil your blood .As kids we swore about each others mother's that boiled other blood then,but now not so mush .so we use the next best thing .Ya rasceist slures it,s just a weapon use to piss off someone as mush as they think they are and maybe a little bit more I'm not defending racisted but as long as racist slures offend they will continue ,

Answer 3

I believe cracker is racists, that word came about to hurt the white community the same way n---r hurts the black community , but they own that word now by calling each other N---r . when I put cracker up here and then put ****** , ****** will be censored , but cracker will not . It bothers me very much when someone says cracker, but that's me it depends on who you ask. I just think this country is starting to cater to the african americans and the caucasions are the ones who just have to TAKE IT, so to speak. And I think that is wrong . It should be the same for everyone . if u say n---r everyone gets in an uproar , but if a black person calls another black person n---r its with love. but, a black person can call me a cracker and its ok. U will probably call me a racist for my thoughts on this because I am white , but let a black person come on here and say basically the same ,but vice versa and he will not be call a racists. this is america today ansd everyone is blind in the name of whats right . but what they really mean whats right for the black community. let's not upset the black community . thats the american mind set today. you can agree or not I don't care. really I don't ........

Answer 4

Anyone, at any given time, can snap when he/she is pushed to far.
From what I understand,Richards is a very serious actor/comedian. He was on stage performing when people started to heckle. At first he ignored them, then after continuous interruptions he freaked out.
I'm not saying that what he did was right, nor am I condoning this behaviour.
However, we are all capable of calling some one a name knowing very well that it is offencive to another race. Do we jump the gun and start calling him/her racist. Sometimes people go to far. The fury within takes over, and gets out of control. Does that mean we are all racists.
We need to hear his side. He has apologized since but will this hurt him, I don't know. Did it hurt Mel Gibson?

Answer 5

I could see if Richards had cursed out those guys for being jerks AS INDIVIDUALS. Like if he'd called the guy an a@@hole or something.

But he cursed out AN ENTIRE RACE for the misbehavior of one guy!!

And he threatend to LYNCH the guy!!

And there was a time in America where a Black man could get lynched for talking back to a White man! And there was a time when Black people were not allowed in White nightclubs!

Richards is a racist jerk, and I will NEVER watch another movie or TV show with him in it again!!!

Answer 6

i'm undecided approximately criminal. What he did in spite of the undeniable fact that grew to become into attack his purpose audience the place the others you point out make jokes in many circumstances. there's a distinction in asserting witches do this and asserting you're a witch. His profession is over now, not plenty for what he pronounced yet using fact he has shown he could not have the capacity to regulate himself, something entertainers could desire to have the capacity to do. What he pronounced did not help the two, it grew to become into over the applicable.

Answer 7

I pity all those people that bought the framed 2 ft. by 5 ft.
framed Kramer poster that you find so often in these mall
poster shops.

Bu then again I don't. LOL!!

I pity the person that pays $20 to watch a comedian and then
sits there with his buddies and cracks jokes at him.

But then again I don't. LOL!!!

Answer 8

Kia, I really don't think you mean it this way, but it reads like you are saying when black people act like asses...

We are not the only ones who "show out" lets be real now
I've seen a couple a white folks acting a complete donkey to the cashier at wal-mart or in the movies making out and laughing exta loud and sh&%!
White people aren't always model in public, at concerts,movies, etc...

I just want the point to be known that "WE" aren't the only asses in the world.

Answer 9

So the first thing that comes to your mind when black people are acting asses is the N word, and they would've been lynched 50 years ago? if that is the case then you are a racist, just like Kramer because when I'm somewhere and someone is getting on my nerves the first thing that comes out of my mouth is moron, not the n word or c word, or dirty jew or some junk like that because I'm not a racist. and you hit ball park he was saying what he really felt, and therefore he should've kept his racist comments to himself not impose them on a broader community who don't care to here such language.

Answer 10

yes, sayin'rackerwas wrong and there are people in the world whom can be complete jerk-offs, butit still dont make it right that richards had to slur a whole race to get his point across...he was a funny guy...i'll miss miss him his humor...he will forever be branded a racist, even though we all say things about others that we may regret from time to time, but he is in the public eye and will be overly cruxcified for it! his apology sucked! but i dnt personally think he is a racist...hell i can be prejudicial towards other groups at time,that doesn't make me a racist...racist purposely spread hate...they use violence, at times to get there views across...they do there best to malign folks they don't care for...they are willing to impede the advancement of anothere person,due solely casue of that persons' religion, race, or place of origin...that does not describe michael richards.

Answer 11

Kramer is a racist, and it just came out!!
Blacks can make fun of themselves, Hispanics can make fun of themselves, but given the violent history of whites like the KKK or Nazi's, it's dumb for a White to even think about making fun of Blacks.
