Who cares? I didn't even know who he was until a week ago. Omigod, he used slurs. Well just don't listen to his show anymore and shut-up. It sounds easy enough. Dumb Barak Obama is all "He should be fired". Shut-up, Obama. Like you've never uttered anything remotely similar about another group, class, race, whatever in your life. :rolleyes:
-
Imus is an idiot who no one really ever cared about, but because he compared one group of black girls to another group of black girls (Yeah, you don't hear about that do ya?) using slang that EVERYONE uses. Black, white, asian, Indian, and even fucking Eskimos. If he said they were "Rearry good rat praying rasketbar!" and other Asian stereo types, or did so with a dot on his head, no big deal would be made.
Fuck Al Sharpton. My Dad knows what you did a month ago to that girl. He saw it. I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!
I am really hating Obama for the simple fact that I really don't know who the fuck he is. I know he has a book and is around the talk shows... but who is he really, and why the fuck should I really care. If he's so damn influential, people should be able to tell me more about him other than "He has energy" or "His views are amazing!".
Alot of people thought Bush had wonderful views and elected (?) him on that.
But Otherwise, Imus is a fucking retard. Go Stern.
-
Fuck Al Sharpton.
I just wonder how he beat Jesse Jackson to the reporters. Usually Jesse is on the ball.
-
I want to know why Pal Jesse or the good Rev don't get into rappers' faces for starting the "ho" and "bitch" thing as popular vernacularisms in the first place. <_<
-
Because all black people know each other?
-
No national white guilt to black on black crime. That's why they want it ended. If white people do it, then there's pop. If a black dude does it, he's just being a Nigga.
O.O SNAP! I WENT THERE!
-
What did Imus say anyway?
-
He called Rutgers women's basketball team a bunch of "nappy-headed hos."
-
In comparison to another team of all black girls.
-
So this is being construed as racism?
I agree with bernie and would like to see Obama square off against 50 cent.
-
CBS fired him, which means he's now free from his contract and can go to satellite for a few million dollars more. I'm sure he's hurting from that spanking. :lol:

Nicely said: http://eurweb.com/story/eur32802.cfm (http://eurweb.com/story/eur32802.cfm) One point for the CDC.
Bottom line:
Dude should've never apologized.
Jesse and Al should STFU.
Obama should stop being a vote-pandering pissant like everyone else.
If they-- whoever they may be-- want to keep the foul lyric spouting rappers, fine, but they shouldn't get all pissy-go-angry that it's pentrated popular lexicon. Too bad, bitches. You should've listened to Cosby and the wisdom of his sweater.
My Dad knows what you did a month ago to that girl. He saw it. I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!
What did he do, give us the juice!
-
He was in a 'nightclub' with a client who wants to build a hospital in Queens, and they were conducting a business deal. When he was there, Al Sharpton was too, and my Dad was a little starstruck... until he heard:
"Mister Sharpton! Don't grab my ass! No no no! That is against the rules!"
My dad told me nightclub, but we all know where he was. I hope it was scores, so that way he'll share and let me come along one time.
-
Black people need to get over Slavery. It's been a hundred years, at least. Get over it.
...And "Nappy-Headed Ho's" is a racial slur? ....Sounds like a general insult to me. Now if he'd have said "Nappy-headed Nigra", that would've been a racial slur.
-
Well that's one thing I can agree on. I'm so frigging tired of hearing a black person said "oh they didn't want to attend me first cause I'm black!" or "i wasn't allowed in first cause i'm black"! shut up.

I get what you're saying, but just bear in mind that the Civil Rights movement was circa the 60's. There was a lot of shit back then-- before and onward-- and that leaves plenty of people around right now that lived through and bear the mark of those times. Not excusing their completely inane over-reaction to a crusty old radio guy, but their issues hardly ended with the abolishment of slavery.

Why isn't that guy in a cell being starved and beaten?
I thought I gave up all my personal freedoms so that people like that could be thrown into a sack in the middle of the night and never heard from again.
Fuck this shit! I'm voting democrat.

The stupid thing about the Justice Brothers (http://mfile.akamai.com/5020/wma/rushlimb.download.akamai.com/5020/New/justicebrothers.asx) is that they fail to realize that Don Imus is the world's oldest wigger. The man's not a racist...sometimes I figure he actually wishes that he was born black.
All I gots to say about it is, "nigger, please!"
-
A column appeared in the paper today about Imus and his "hurtful" comments. What a pussy writer.

Speaking of Ho's (http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/Music/04/14/don.ho.obit.ap/index.html)

I didn't know Mr Humphries was actually gay, I thought he just played one on TV. No wonder he was so good at it.
-
WAAAAGGH!

I always prefered Captain Peacock.
-
You would. Whatever that means. Heh.

bazing

I think they could have done that whole show with just Mrs.Slocombe, Mr.Humphries, and Captain Peacock and it still would have been just as funny. Those 3 got most of the laughs anyways. Slocombe and Humphries delievering the jokes and Peacock being the straight man....and the only one I might add. HA!
-
Captain Peacock was all man... even with a name like Captain Peacock. They're british, words mean different things to them.
-
Just ask for a Fag next time you're over there and see what happens.

My professor was talking about rooms full of stiffs today.
heheh

Oprah in all of her ignorant woman glory devoted her show on the sub-topic of bad language and degredation of women used by rappers and hiphop artists, inspired by our good friend Br'er Imus. I could only stomach about ten minutes but highlights include:
A group of stupid bints (passing themselves off as educated women) calling for censorship. They say they don't contribute to the problem because they don't buy that sort of material. 1) It's not aimed for them anyway. 2) Their kids and relatives buy it.
One smart hip-hop lovin' cookie who brought up the revolutionary idea that parents should try instilling morals and values themselves instead of relying on dudes wearing baggy clothes and grills to do it for them. However, she loses points for saying she was "an educator who educates". FTW. Oprah rudely and hilariously cuts her off when she speaks too much.
Russell Simmons trying to shove blame elsewhere (much to ire of the cows mentioned above) and staunchly defending the "poets". Snoop and Eminem are poets like my ass is a poet. Isn't it enough we call them artists, we also have to call them "poets"? While I agree their backgrounds need to be taken into consideration, it doesn't work as a defense once you become filthy rich.
-
Poets? LOL.
-
When I was in school, "nappy-headed" was somebody who didn't have time to wash their hair that morning. That's apparently the only thing construed as a racist remark. "Hoes" is just an urban insult/general female descriptor.
What made it racial? The Justice Brothers! The only folks allowed to get away with racist remarks are they!
-
Some people have waaaay too much free time.
-
Yep, and they wonder why they are fatties.
-
The founder of Napster is a white kid, known for his "nappy" hair.
-
My cousin had a fro. Ray Vicario (A kid I grew up with) had a blonde fro! Both had bouts of extreme nappiness.
-
My aunt was also calling them poets. I'm like "lady, they ain't poets" and she made some sort of counterpoint of that it was kinda like poetry and I told her that if she applied that sort of logic, then we'd have to call every single lyricist in every genre a goddamn poet. And then I mentioned something about only having to deal with the obscene popularity of hip-hop until the next fad comes along and she expressed disbelief. She was alive for disco, she should know better.
-
Black people make terrible music. They suceeded in Jazz, but everything else will be forgotten.
-
Vanessa Williams? Luther Vandross? Janet Jackson? That molestor Michael Jackson? The dude Rockwell that only had a hit because he got Michael and Jermaine to sing on it because he was Jermaine's brother-in-law? The dude from Cameo? Aaliyah? Lenny Kravitz? Living Colour? Haddaway? :joe:
-
Besides, aren't black people supposedly responsible for nearly every major trend of music?

Sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks, half a black and half jew, somewhat good, sucks. That and most of those don't create music, they sing other people's music.
-

Disco isn't dead. Disco is life!
-
Michael Jackson is neither suck nor black.
-
Michael Jackson is the BEST singer EVER. he's the best!
-
Eh, if you say so. I see him as a singer, not a musician, especially since he doesn't write his own music. That's just skilled interpretation, not musical creation.
-
I see him as a better preformer than anything, considering his range is, or rather was, limted only to pop music.
-
Exactly, but not a musician.
-
Michael Jackson is neither suck nor black.
He used to be. It counts!
-
The way some people talk, you'd think blacks invented music itself.
But with the exception of country and church music, my granddad referred to it all as "nigger music". So even he believed the lie!
-
If I hear one more person bleat about how every good American needs to send money to patch New Orleans up, no matter how many times the idiots get wiped out because they're rebuilding on a time bomb, because it's where jazz was born, I may have to start running around in a circle screaming to get them off the subject.
-
I'm not helping any Katrina people, not after they came to my city, increased crime and littered! I don't care how musical they are.

Musical thugs!
