When they cover the 'plight' of the palestinians. When they put israel on the same level as the murdures palestinian suicide bombers [i know we dont agree on this topic, so lets not get off on a whole thing about this]

I cant think of anything else off top, but i cant think of any times where they glorify them off top either.

as i said before, the reason the gibson thing got such play is because he was allready accused of being anti-semetic. And as you said, mel gibson and kramer aren't even CLOSE to the same level of celebrity.
drunken jesus wrote:and i just saw him on letterman with seinfeld, i sorta respect his honesty he didn't try to play it off or try to be funny or even really try to make any excuses, what he did was still pathetic and wrong, comedians get heckled their whole careers and hardly any of them have responded that bad ever
i saw that to [thanks for lettin me know about that] and he did seem like a broken man. It pissed me off how he referenced katrina for no reason, trying to 'side' with black people. [which makes no sense, an equal number of blacks and whites lost thier lives]

atleast he did not claim he was an alcoholic or drug addict [yet] which celebrities like to do in order to make excuses for their behavior.

I think Kramer was just role playing and he took his character over board and no one understood the joke(not black). He was interupted but it doesn't give him the right to use such profound words(curse you Dave Chappelle). Kramer was on the Letterman Show last night via satelite. His whole apologize is acceptable. However, I believe he was pulling an act on with the studder and depression look. The Katrina reference came out of no where, which no one understood. Laughter in the audience silenced quickly when he acted to be serious. Although it's a serious matter for Jesse Jackson, racism is funny. Kramer just needs to revise his act.

He wasn't role playing at all he went into a racist outburst cause 2-3 dudes in the audience weren't paying attention to his show and talking to each other, It wasn't part of his act at all it wasn't meant to be a joke he was just frustrated and decided to be racist cause his whole set was horrible and nobody was laughing and a few black dudes weren't even paying attention

And on letterman he wasn't putting on an act, hes not that good of an actor he was just shook and didn't really know what to say, and the audience laughter stopped when seinfeld told them too cause the audience wasn't really aware of the situation and probably thought it wasn't as bad as it was, he was being serious the whole time he even said maybe this isn't the right place to do it when he heard the laughter


and yeah 8th i was expecting him to try to say some shit like that as soon as i heard the clip, i respect him for being honest but hes still a racist piece of shit and it was made even more apparent when he didn't even say african americans he said afro americans hopefully some black comedian will see him at a club and bash his head in

i mean really, how the hell says afro american, beside a racist atempting to sound non racists. I found that odd right when he said it also. Like i said, watchin seinfeld will never be the same. Especially the one were kramer has the asians sleep in dresser draws.

for those of u who probably didn't see this, this is an apology from michael richards, notice how jerry seinfeld calms the audience down as soon as they start laughing at him. and how richards starts stuttering.

Notice. That he probably had it thought out that he was going to say african americans. Then said afro americans. Honestly tell me he doesn't use that as a regular part of his vocabulary. Him and all his friends are probably racist. He will be on Larry King Live for an hour soon. I can guarantee. We will get to judge him more then. Honestly I don't really care if he is racist or not. But from my perspective he is.

u have a point he did say afro americans. like hes ashamed that colored people walk amongst him. hes a 1 time star. i mean the dude was right Seinfeld made his carrer and broke it too. so maybe hes mad cause he has no more money??? who knows

he was mad cause his careers complete shit, he wasn't even heckled he went off on the dude cause he wasn't even paying attention to his act he was just talking to his friends and shit

you know your acting careers complete shit when you can't even entertain a crowd of 300 let alone a crowd of thousands/millions on a tv show
