In no way am I defending Richards behavior or use of the ENWURD. It was racist, plain and simple. He was attempting to publicly humiliate, belittle, and ridicule Gloria's two "innocent gentleman victims".
What the media and talking heads always ignore, was before his racist outburst, these two "gentleman" were also attempting to publicly humiliate, belittle, and ridicule Richards who was trying to do his act.
Funny how the media always conveniently edits out what the PC media call their "playful" interruptions, "playful" heckling and "playful" insults, before Richards retaliated.
It's also interesting that all of our liberal Media armchair psychiatrists, and so called black leaders and racist hypocrites, such as "Reverend" Jesse 'Hymie town' Jackson, and "Reverend" Al 'Tawana Brawley' Sharpton (whom the media treat like they're pure as the driven snow) see Richards' racially inflammatory response, after being angered by his hecklers, as proof that deep down inside he is a racist, YET, totally ignore this also angry black male's racially inflammatory response of "Cr*cka ass white boy!", as evidence that deep down inside this black male is a racist too!
I wonder what would happen to a white male if he went to let's say a black night club and "playfully" interrupted, heckled and insulted the black act on stage.
Heckling is normal. Every comedian knows this. It is normal. If a comedian can't handle a heckler, he shouldn't be a comedian. If he can't handle a heckler without resorting to racial taunts, he shouldn't be up on the stage.
I disagree with you. When we get angry, we lose control, this is true. When we lose control- think about the meaning of that phrase 'lose control'- the things we normally keep repressed (and controlled) within us come out.
I liked his character Kramer. But for me, he lost it and the ugly truth slipped out of him for all to see. The man is a racist and it doesn't disturb me at all to say that.
Will someone remind Jesse & Al of these racists remarks & acts?
No and No.
Thank you MS for the reminder.
Thank you JH for the ping.
