Yeah. He’s a certified leftist, and so this token punishment will not hurt him at all and will not last long.

Well said! We don’t patronize or condescending to black people. We treat them as equal. Just as Frederick Douglass wanted.

> I am very sorry for making this unquestionably offensive decision and thank all of you for holding me accountable.

What a completely 1984 statement.

Thrilled as I am to see Kimmel get his, I fail to understand what the big deal is. No one made a big deal out of the movie “White Girls”. No one cared about Gene Wilder in “Silver Streak”. The outrage all seems so selective.

He’d better not get caught eating Aunt Jemimah’s Pancakes or Uncle Ben’s rice or Cream of Wheat! Kellogg’s had besst remove those African sports stars from their cereal boxes.

“I’m taking this summer off to spend even more time with my family.”

In any other context, that would mean he got fired, contract “suspended”.

NOT to be resuscitated.

Governor Northam (Democrat, Virginia): 'Blackface? What's the problem? Besides, I might not be in blackface, I might be the guy in the Klan outfit. I can't recall. Either way, I'm good so I don't get why all these people are losing their jobs now.'

Liberals get summers off when they get in trouble I guess

In the 1960s China had their GREAT CULTURAL REVOLUTION where mobs of young people were set loose to destroy anything they did not like.

Today the Democrats have let loose their own version of the GREAT CULTURAL REVOLUTION using blacks as a cover for their hatred and violence.

The only good that is coming out of this is we get to see who has courage and who is willing to toss the rest of under the bus in hope the mob leaves them alone.

There’s a saying about hoisting on pitards that comes to mind.

He is probably going to leave the country..
He knows he is about to get eaten by the monster he helped create.

You’re going to ask a woke liberal like Kimmel what the big deal is. It their rules, not man’s.

Men don”t get offended by comedy. Not secure one”s at least.

Liberals.
Think their silly degrees in marshmallow making define them as eddikated.
Love double standards.
Actually believe journalists and tv talking heads.
Are enemies of history, which is why they are trying so hard to change it.
Cut and run when really confronted. (Not to worry, though, Republicans are spineless and will never take offensive...except for Trump.)
