All right guys, the scams over. I'm not a 20 year old black girl, I just wanted to see how many friends I had on the Free Imus front.

Because we live in America and it's called freedom of speech. He may get fired and fined for saying what he did on the air while employed, but the death penalty? How ignorant are you. He hasn't killed anyone. The day he gets killed for speech is the day your favorite rappers get killed for spewing the same thing.

Why, what he said is covered by the first amendment. So the guy said something that some people consider bad, big deal. If you don't want to hear it change the station. I have yet to see the reverends sharpton and jackson protesting rappers who use that phrase and some much worse. When that happens then I will say that Imus got what he deserved but not till then.

Omg.....I am so sick of Imus questions!!! Sheesh people ...he was just a man that stuck his foot in his mouth like hundreds do every day. You only give him and the news media more ammunition when you keep the crap going. I could care less whether or not he is on or off the air...he didn't make life any better for me. He wasn't God....so what does it matter what he said....I and half of America could care less. Maybe now he can get back to the ranch and help the kids and spend less time pissing people off.

sook: I'm ashamed that a 20 YO woman in 2007 has to hear her peers called tough "ho's". When I was a child, I drank out of water fountains that said colored and waited for doctors in the colored waiting room in the back.( Look up Jim Crow laws). When I was in high school, the school was fully integrated and we were treated like step-children. They made it clear that it was THEIR school and we did things THEIR way.
You too will look back on this day when you and other women said "enough is enough". Try to get those rappers to stop poisoning the minds of our young uneducated girls. That can be your contribution to your future generations. Corporate america has gotten rich off of gangster rap long enough.
Keep your head high, Girlfriend!
Whatever they call you, you KNOW they fear you.

Oh I know! He should be hung, shot, stabbed then burned. Then after he is dead, it should happen again, but this time on Oprah!
This is getting ******* old. Imus didn't do anything do deserve the death of his career.

Wise words from a person who would wish death on another person. His statement was not racist it was stupid. learn the differance.

I guess because Al Sharpton's power hasn't reached that level (yet).

I mean like-yeah since when does "nappy" have anything to do with being black & like saying Venus & Serena Williams belong in National Geographic was like soooo funny & not racist & let's face it like sooooo true. (I mean don't they look like they're like straight out of Africa?!?) I mean people are like soooo sensitive, I mean you never hear white people complaining (especially on Y!A) I mean like there's such a double standard, like why can't we say the n-word its like said in rap all the time, & like we called them that first so its like really OUR word! I mean like they don't complain about gangsta rap & like all of them call their women h0's & like why can't Imus. I mean its like not his fault -like that rap crap like totally brainwashed him or something. Like even my gandpa says nappy head h0 now like its SOOO the IN thing now!!
