You know, I can see him apologizing for acting like an asshole, but to call up Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? What the fuck?
The dumbest thing that Richards said was that he "felt a sense of inferiority" or some shit. What a fucking crock. That's just idiotic on so many levels.
If he felt inferior to blacks, then he's an idiot, because no human being should feel inferior to any other on a basic level. If he was a professional athlete and made the same statement, the he's simply a racist. But being a comedic actor and making that claim, that's just flat-out retarded.
This just makes me think that he really is a racist prick, and that he blew up and said what he was really thinking, and now he's doing the rugdance trying to save his career.
at the laugh factory. They have banned the use of the N word. Any commedian that chooses to use the "N word" durring their act will have each word deducted from their pay. if they use it too many times they will owe the laugh factory money and be removed from the stage
in all geuinity i dont understand why this caused such controversy. like, a stand up comedy act is exactly that: an ACT. i mean ur allowed say the N Word in movies arent u? like American History X it is used all the time in a derogatory way and nobody kicked up any shit about that. so whats the difference for stand up comedy? itd be different if a fuckin newscaster said it or sumthin. yet again political correctness run amuck.
