People came to hear Richards, not hecklers who disrupts the "worker" trying to make a living. True his words were wrong, but frustration can do a lot. What about the black comedians who belittle "whitey" such as Wanda Sikes (sp?) and others.

I couldn't agree with you more. The hecklers in the Richards incident, have taken no responsibility in starting the whole thing, although Richards was responsible to maintain a certain amount of professionalism, at least he has apologize. Everyone has their limits.

I agree with you. I think its a case of reverse racism. Its ok for black comedianas to say whatever they want, but its not ok for white comedians to do the same. Example: Dave Chapelle, his show was so racist, yet no one had a problem with that. Also, if you go to a show and sit in the front row, your in the comics world now. The hecklers where being rude and talking the whole show and called richards a cracker. I think thats just as racist as being called a n*****. Notice how cracker is ok to say on here but ****** isn't. This site is racist too.

There is NO justification for bringing up lynching to black people. None. It doesn't matter how much someone was heckling. To try to "justify" that level of racism and hatred is like saying "well, I had to shoot him officer! he offended my wife."
