Why is he chiming in now? Trying to remind people he was. Down with the struggle?

Tell you what, Denzel, I’ll take all those N word insults you’ve received, and I’ll also take your millions.

Deal?

Oh, by the way, I was brought up by Louisiana folks who taught me very very early in life that if they ever heard that word come from my lips, I’d never sit down again. And these were swampwater cajun parents.

[driftdiver]

I’ve always thought he was one of the good guys. Not so sure anymore.

[MeshugeMikey]

theres money in the game...somewhere.

[Westbrook]

Oh, please. I grew up in a mixed neighborhood - Irish, Greek, Italian, French, Spanish, Jew, and WASP. We all had ethic epithets for eachother. We were okay with it after a few slugfests. But if somebody outside the neighborhood used one of those names, we'd tell him, "Hey, that's MY . We can call him that but you can't."

So what?

[Mears]

“Denzel Washington’s experience shooting his new movie The Equalizer in Boston revived memories of racial discrimination he encountered more than 30 years ago. “

---

Thirty years ago?

Shut up,Denzel.

.

[ilgipper]

Oh...there’s racism in Boston? I thought it was all those evil southerners.

Truth be told, the northeast and especially Boston are the most racist in the country in word and deed. Not those redneck republicans in the south.

[skeeter]

This seems to be the preferred way certain folks promote their movies these days.

[I want the USA back]

The race card allows you to go back hundreds of years, even before you were born, to things that have no bearing on anything today.

[lacrew]

Thirty year old white guilt?

[roofgoat]

because after Lil Mike got shot running away with his hands up, 99% of all visual and written media got their ORDERS to bury the public in stories about white privilege and white racism.

Same as a few years ago when ALL the media covered the “River of Guns” flowing from US gun shops and shows to poor Mexico killing their innocent citizens. F & F (nor Wide Receiver) were known by very few at the time.

Lies are the truth now, truth is evil and racist.

My 75-year old Jewish uncle talks about his youth growing up in Dawchestah, Massachusetts.

Imitating what he heard from his Irish neighborhood peers while he was growing up (usually as a prelude to a beating), he holds his finger under his nose and pushes up his nostrils (imitating a pug nose), and says: “You killed owa LAWD!”

[CincyRichieRich]

Is he running out of money? Hmm

[Rodamala]

Ah... I fondly recall the first time the "H-word" was hurled at me. My Volvo Wagon had hit a wooden pallet on the exit ramp into Newark off I-78 and I was on the side of Clinton Avenue attempting to change out the wheel.

A local child, I mean, a local "unarmed" adolescent (bless his heart) stood at the top of a hill overlooking a vacant lot next to me, and as I stood there, tire iron in hand, the youth... undoubtedly on his way down to the soup kitchen where he volunteered his time "community organizing" yelled down at me, "Hey, H*****! Imma come down there, an' f**k you up!"

Oddly, there was nothing wrong with my horn... I mean it was not honking... so I am not sure why he was calling me a H-word.

[TexasCajun]

How many times do you think Mr. Washington has used the N-Word himself as a term of affection to fellow Blacks?

Thousand times more than an insult directed at him personally.

[Buckeye McFrog]

The original Equalizer was British and lived in New York.

Does Hollywood have to destroy EVERY old TV show I used to watch?

[Argus]

Why I’ll never forget the first time I was called a cracker...

[aft_lizard]

He is one of the good guys in Hollywood, I would imagine he was asked a question and he answered. Unlike some blacks in Hollywood he doesnt seem to carry a chip on his shoulder.
