Pot meet kettle. God I hate humanity.
I'm waiting for the Rutgers Women's Basketball team's book deal, the world's shortest book telling about their agonizing ordeal.
just as bad as Imus-- worse, because ol'snoop obviously has a problem with women in general, and black women in particular. THIS is a brain on drugs, narissim, and just a bad general attitude.
LOL! good one.
screw you snoop
I am noticing conservatives are defending Imus by stating that Rap and Hip Hop uses the same language. Regardless of someone else's wrongs from the past, present, and/or future, the fact remains that Imus knowingly committed this unbelievable blaspheme over airways reaching millions of people. 'Other' arguments of Rap and Hip Hop should be or should have been addressed at the appropriate times, not now. Do not desensitive our feelings for the wrong committed against these young women by stating that 'rappers' do it all the time.
Now here's someone for every kid, black, white, whatever color to aspire to be like.
Now here's someone for every young person of what ever color, race, or creed to aspire to be like and to look up to. Can you imagine how Messrs. Sharpton and Jackson and their legions of 'they can do no wrong and whatever they say has to be what is' followers would be doing if some one other than a person of color were to use such colorful language to refer to comments made by a person of color?
A nappy headed male 'Ho' notorious for degrading black women.
Nappy headed male 'ho' announced as Imus' replacement.
time and place for everything. Comedy clubs and unregulated satellite radio-okay-FCC regulaged networks -not okay.
Language isn't the problem, it's the actual intent behind the words. Blacks know what their issues are within their own communities-and truly,
whites don't care and won't fix their problems for them. I have yet to meet a white person who HONESTLY is 'offended' by the terms ofay, cracker or honky, the calls for hypocricy are ludicrous. The comments Imus made were toughtless, unkind, but the reaction is as always these days, over the top.
snoop dogg needs to go out there and suck his own .
there was no need for imus to say that and its different coming from snoop cuz he says it with respect but imus said it with disrespect that was rude and ignorant
Does anybody remember what Imus started out saying before he said nappy-headed ho? He said 'If I were a punk on the street, I would call them...' Then, he went on to pathetically try to joke. Insulting women IS NEVER a joke or ACCEPTABLE. No way does Snoop or anybody else use ho and b*tch in a respectful manner. But that's beside the point. Snoop needs to keep his dirty mouth shut, Imus was trying to emulate the disrespectful and violent sub-culture in the black community. And YES!! I AM offended when I'm referred to as 'cracker b*tch', etc. when I turn black guys down at the night club. Can't they see my wedding ring? I guess they should all make public appologies to me, HUH? Oh, that's right. Blacks don't have to appologize for inappropriate behavior.
You think Imus remarks were bad but you bunch of pukeheads make us sick with your foul mouths and stupid music or whatever you call it. You rappers are disgusting idiots with no thought whatsoever who you make sick. All of you should be glad to be US citizens and not living in Africa - feel lucky that we bought you here or some of our ancestors did. Get over it and move on suckers
Though people may want to find some kind of comparison between the two, it is NOT the same thing. First of all, when rappers use these words they are not referring to a SPECIFIC I repeat SPECIFIC person or persons as Imus did. These words are in their lyrics, no one knows who they are talking about because no names or women's basketball teams etc. are being used. Please believe if they ever did offend a particular black woman by name sports team publicly or otherwise as DON IMUS did, they would get in just as much trouble lawsuits suspension or whatever as whites, depending if the person/s they NAMED/REFERED to wanted to take it there. People, and NOT just black people, use the word everyday. Bottom line, you can't compare someone who actually made a statement to a particular group of people to someone who just uses the word.
People like LORA COLLA are the reason we have these racial desputes in the first place. No matter what people say, someone will get offended, and remarks like that are what make it a lot harder to just 'get over it'. What was the point in saying something like that? Oh by the way, thats why they have different radio/tv stations and off buttons....so you dont have to listen to or watch garbage if you don't want to.
Granted, Imus shouldn't have said what he did in referring to a particular group of women, but enough already!!!! Aren't there more important things going on right now than to have this news on every minute on every station every day??? Do you realize while this media 'tiff' was going on, more precious troops were being slaughtered in Iraq????
The I-MAN WILL BE BACK,WITH A VERY SWEAT DEAL,AND LESS HYPOCRACY
'...from our minds and our souls.'
Yeah. As opposed to from the directives and orders of white executives.
