Kramer's A Racist!!!

Have you ever watched The Cosby Show Shadowboxing?
Not really...I vaguely remember the show being on TV, that's it.
You remember the geeky white kid who was one of the children's friends who always was the butt of the jokes? You've never giggled at that?
....There were white people on the show:huh:
That is a form of racism. Get the hell off your high horse. EVERYONE has done it in one way or another.
No, not everyone gets on a 3 minute rant about "n*****s", talks about how 40 years ago they'd be dead, and then points them out in a crowd to further heckle them. Wrong.
Kramer's was just OVERT racism, that is why he is getting all this slack.
I think you're missing the point. If your racist and you keep quiet about it, your a heck of a lot better off than the guy who shouts about it. That's like saying the killer should get off death row because "everyone thinks about killing people" it's natural "his was just OVERT killing".

Great, so the first guy can control himself while the second guy flies off the handle. But somehow we should give them both the same amount of slack.

No, I would laugh at or say a racist joke. That's the difference.
 
Matt said:
Yes, it was inappropriate. So the man should not be chastised for the rest of his life. He apologized, what more can he do? Lets move on.

It won't be from the rest of his life. We can move on when he's suffered enough.:o

Besides if this just gets dropped, it'll give the impression that America is indifferent to race issues/"don't care about black people"/whatever. He ****ed up, now he needs to take his medicine.

Leave Kramer alone. It's less about him being racist and more about a botched attempt to get control back from the room. He had to assert himself and he just spouted off the harshest thing he could think of, it just so happened to not be funny.

Hecklers are one of the pitfalls of being comedian. If you are a fire fighter you deal with fires, if you are a police officer who deal with criminals and if you are a comedian you deal with hecklers. Richards isn't very good comedian if he has racist melt down when dealing with a few hecklers.

I highly doubt that when people here such as Erzengel or DOG LIPS Corinthian or, well, any number of posters, make racist jokes, that you just avert your eyes and pray for their souls and move on to the next thread.:rolleyes:
I don't have to laugh at it Wilhelm, do I?

Do you HAVE to laugh Dane Cook when he goes on TV, can't you just I don't know...CHANGE THE F***ING CHANNEL.

This we can all agree on.
Richard Pryor was a racist, but at least he was funny.
 
I've seen some of Richards' comedy, and I didn't really like it, prolly 'cause I was expecting Kramer, but I wouldn't heckle any comedian no matter how bad their act. Going up there is tough. :dry:
 
What if Visa is like, "You better pay us betch." And the comedian is like, "But I don't have any money!" And they're like, "Do some stand-up comedy!" And brandish a desert eagle or something. :csad:

Then I guess they would have a gun to their head in that instance. Or you could always use the classic "do this or we'll rape and shoot this little girl hypothetical"
 
Flintstones... Meet the Flintstones...
They're the modern stone-age family.
From the town of Bedrock
They're a page right out of history.

Let's ride with the family down the street.
Through the courtesy of Fred's two feet.

When you're with the Flintstones
you'll have a yabba dabba doo time.
A dabba doo time.
You'll have a gay old time.

:yay:

You mean Peter, the fat, quite, dopey kid? Nah, they were justy making fun of him because he was a fat, dopey kid, not because he was white, all of Rudy's friends were crazy characters. Rudy had a black friend named Kenny who was really sexist, but I doubt they were saying all black men are sexist.

That's why you gotta have a little umbrella with a concealed pellet gun that shoots a steel bearing full of Ricin out of the tip.

So they stick the Desert Eagle in your face and you go, "Okay, okay, be cool, my brotha." then position the umbrella, and...*pop*, and they go, "WTF, did I just get a mosquito bite?!?"
And you go, "I don't think so, it's winter. Maybe. :huh:"
So they go, okay, see you later....and then they die with a foaming mouth like, 6 hours later, from the Ricin, and you're like, "Suck on that, Visa. No Stand-Up today, no Stand-Up EVER."

Richard Pryor wasn't racist and if he by some stretch of the imagination was he had a reason to not like white people even though that's not a justifible reason, but my grandfather didn't like white people to much but this is a man who had no reason to love anyone who treated him so badly as a child during the 1930s on up till his late 50's.

It's not an excuse but I can understand it.

After Seinfeld the guy is a millionaire and still makes a ton of cash off the Seinfeld reruns, he doesn't have to do anything if he wants. If he has such a thin skin, he should taken up painting or something, he has enough money to do what he wants, he just screwed up a really sweet deal.

lol, erm....okay.

You know, members of the KKK often have a "reason" that they don't like Black people.

Like, they would say, "See, most people in prison are Black. That proves that they're evil ruffians and can't be trusted."

I saw an interview with a KKK guy who told of how Black kids terrorized him all through his school years, a Black guy raped his sister and Black guys burlged his house THREE times. So he hates all Black people.

He was still a racist and an idiot. :huh:

I'd really like to know why a white person is automatically a racist if he says the wrong thing, but a black person can deliberately say the most vile of things and yet you don't view him as racist?

I'm curious, what does a black person have to do to qualify as a racist or is that impossible?

Also, even though I am not a hugely familiar with Pryor's work (being that he was before my time), Black comedians who use race in their comedy tend to make light of the stereotype by turning it around on it's head.

Holy jeebz, you went from "gun to head" to rape and shooting a little girl. You can't just transition like that. It's. Jolting. :csad:

Holy crap, that sounds sweeter than the belt buckle knife. :wow:

Ooooh well, at least he apologized. But whatever. Racism is in general stupid. And I laugh at all the commotion it causes in society today. :dry:

If a black comedian got up on stage and said "White people suck, you all should burn in hell"...then yes that would be very racist

Not according to Deemar.

You're right...we should start with smaller crimes like petty larceny first.

Any...examples of how they turn anti-White stereotypes "on their heads"? :huh:
I have no idea what you mean by that.

You think 3 minutes was bad?
I've seen full on entire SHOWS where Black comedians were talking mercilless, hate-filled s*** about "White People", using derogatory slang and making disgusting, false generalizations about "White People".

Never heard a peep from the National Association for the Advancement of White People. :huh:
