There is no defense for what he said. None.

seinfeld is on letterman tonight - and it looks like Richards did a taped apology to air during that segment. Letterman tapes about 5PM NY time.

Agreed...very hard to watch.

Wouldn't be surprised if some substances were involved.

"There is no defense for what he said. None."

I wonder what the point of those emphasizing the "double standard" of the event is. The Christians pushing this angle should know better, given Jesus represents their moral ideal.

The black hecklers could have been saying the ultimate worst slurs against whites in the untaped parts of the show, and it *still* would not excuse the behavior of Richards. Just because there are scumbags in the world doesn't give you license to be one too.

Are some whites upset that *they* can't say the word 'nigger' to blacks in the fashion that some blacks say it to themselves? What kind of twisted nonsense is this?
