Do you think a black comedian,lashing out at a white heckler ,using terms like "honkey" "cracker" or " white devil" would create the same outrage as the Richards thing? Would it even be news?

No, it certainly would not. White people or should I say Euro-Americans really don't seem to care what they are called. As a matter of fact the black people who live in my area(A mixed population) really don't care much either. A point raised to me was those who seem the most offended are living in all or mostly black neighborhoods.This tends to create a "Sub-culture" outside main stream thinking.I don't approve of Richards outburst,but I dont see it as national news either.My mom told me when I was little"Sticks and stones....."

I don't think it would be as bad. What I found so distastful about the richard's video was how deeply hateful he was in expressing his terms more so than the words he was using. It sounded like michael richards had some buried racism that was lurking just beneath the surface, Also its so crazy to see "kramer" of all people saying and doing things so completly wrong and not funny that it was just shocking. Its a real shame.

I doubt it, considering blacks do it all the time and get a free pass from the media. America has become an anti-White country.

The truth is, Richards was 100% correct. His only mistake was to apologize. For that, I despise him.

No.
Just listen to Eddie Murphy or Chris Rock, both are disgusting in their monologues.

Of course if the media did publish it wouldn't that be considered racism against blacks , again?
I am not racist or claim to be perfect, it is just all of the political correctness has really skewed.
It seems a good morning can now be classified as insulting.
