It sets race relations back because of the obvious double standard. Sharpton and Jackson and rappers not only get away with saying racial, hateful things they are even celebrated for it by the left and the media.
A white shock-jock makes a stupid racial comment and is dragged through national press for days, forced to grovel, then that isn’t even enough and loses his radio show.
Related is the Duke LAX case, presumed guilty. Where does it end with blacks in America? How much hypocrisy is OK?
BS...Stern was on radio for years saying worse and nothing happened to him. Were it not for his weird mother-child sex thing and declining ratings, he’d still be on air. I did not think the Duke boys did anything but hey... I’m continually amazed at the white sheets that flutter whenever stories like this pop up. I’m outta here.
I agree that this entire brouhaha has set race relations back. One need only listen to Anderson Cooper on CNN who is amazed at the e-mails from viewers who are sick about the double standards.
We were at dinner last night and a large table of people sitting next to us started talking about this with us and to a person they were disgusted by the double standard.
And tonight I told my husband that this is turning people against the whiners in our country and against the race pimps.
Should've picked our own damned cotton.
