i think the imus theing is blown out of Perportion?

Question

No,It was not good to say but COMMON. al sharpton says worse things about gays and jews and hes not covered crazily. And howard stern does everything bad andtheyre not flippin out. The duke lacross team charges were dropped now but they had extremly little press time because of imus and this crap. Those guys lives are ruined but all we care about are a some girls' hurt feelings. And compared to Stern this is actully MILD!

Answer 1

COULD YOU BE A BIGGER HYPOCRITE?!?!!?

SERIOUSLY -- IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?!?!?!

One cannot help but to notice that you have
nothing at all to say about the fact that there
have ALSO been multiple cases of "black"
men having been falsely accused of raping
a white women - and who were later found
to have been completely INNOCENT.

When the accusations were going on the
White led and owned media (which helped
to rail road these men when they were being
falsely accused) did nothing and said nothing
when they were PROVEN to have been innocent.

WHERE ARE YOUR INDIGNANT COMMENTS
REGARDING MATTERS SUCH AS THESE?!?!?!

Perfect examples would be 'The Scotsboro Boys'
as well as the completely innocent young men who
spent more than fifteen (15) years in prison when they
were FALSELY accused of and wrongfully convicted
of having gang-raped the 'Central Park Jogger'
(it should be noted that the man who was PROVEN
to have done this horrific act of violence against
this woman was not even black in the least.)

Unlike the children who were falsely accused of and
spent more than fifteen (15) years in prison for the
'Central Park Jogger' rape (which DNA evidence later
PROVED that they DID NOT do) -- the Duke Lacrosse
Team Players – on the other hand -- were MEN -- not boys
-- and they were RICH --not poor (or even working class) --
and they were HIGHLY EDUCATED --not high school kids
-- and they had TOP NOTCH attorneys - not public defenders.

Why do you remain silent to the fact that the children
who spent 15 years in prison for a crime that they
were later PROVEN to have not committed --
yet drone on and on about an 'accusation'?

WHERE ARE YOUR INDIGNANT COMMENTS FOR
THESE INDIVIDUALS HAVING HAD FIFTEEN (15)
YEARS OF THEIR LIVES (AND THEIR ENTIRE
TEENS AND 20'S) STOLEN FROM THEM?!?!?!

If any one's lives were 'ruined' it was the 'Central Park
Boys' --who spent more than half of their life in prison
for a crime they didn't commit (they had never even
had one episode with the law prior to their accusation)
-- as well as the 'Scotsboro Boys' who spent more
than 30 years of their lives fighting the false accusation.

In addition, the media was all over those kids when the
''Central Park Jogger' case was going on -- yet when DNA
evidence PROVED they were INNOCENT and found the
REAL rapist (who was a non-black) -- where was the
media and – equally important -- where were your rants
about false accusations and your demands for apologies?

Well .. we are waiting for an answer....

Oh – you don’t have one?

Yeah – I didn’t think so.

Answer 2

maximum suitable. unusual that unfastened speech covers the desecration of Christian non secular symbols yet no longer Imus's comments. in my view i think of Imus is a fool yet he has a God given ideal to be a fool!

Answer 3

I think there are a lot of loose tongues out there wagging. People need to control themselves a little more. If rappers use it what is the difference except one is white and the other Afro-American. This is totally racial against the white race.

Answer 4

While what he said was a bit disrespectful, there are plenty of worse things he could have said. And yes, it was blown WAY out of proportion!

Answer 5

It was indeed disproportionate. But I suspect it signals a change in how much vulgarity the public is willing to tolerate.
I would actually welcome this. And I would be glad if Al Sharpton too would watch his mouth.

Answer 6

The THEING it was very blown out PERPORTION and that "Imus" "THING" was blown out of PROPORTION" as well.
