I watch a little World Wrestling Entertainment these days,, mostly because some of the Wrestlers are very amusing in their dialog, especially the one called "The Rock", I've never heard his ethnicity mentioned, but I would bet a dollar to a dough nut he is African American. (You are welcome, Rock, or I apologize, depending on your reaction to my assumption.) The Rock calls everybody a monkey from time to time, regardless of race or ethnicity, and it is very funny. THe funniest part it seems, after reading this assinine attack upon, Naomi Judd, is that no one has been offended by being called a monkey by the Rock, or ever dreamed of calling him a raciest.
I don't know Ms Judd, but having read the story of her trials and tribulations, and the success she made of her own life, while setting the example for the success her children have attained as well-it is unbelievable that any rational person could twist her innocent remarks into racism.
The more of this petty crap we hear, the sickener it becomes. Not that those who profit from race baiting give a damn, but a shaved monkey is white. That doesn't make it the son of a European though, anymore than it's hair and features make it an African human. It's just a monkey.
Those who seek to destroy Naomi Judd's reputation over these innocent remarks is neither human or monkey, they are low life SOB's!

Actually, the Rock is half-Somoan and half black.

She is so NOT racist, that it probably never occured to her that the statement she made might be construed that way.

Of course there's white bashing going on but what's being done about that? Whites are put down, mocked and trashed by certain ethnic groups all the time. If you ever saw the movie, "White Men Can't Jump" its got lots of racist connation in it as well.

Wrestlers are very amusing in their dialog, especially the one called "The Rock", I've never heard his ethnicity mentioned, His father was/is a light-skinned black professional wrestler whose name I forget right now,and his mother was/is Samoian. I THINK his father's real name was Johnson. He had birds tatooed on his chest.
