The only reason rappers were brought up is because they are black, that is fucking racism right there. If it were an Italian soccer team would people bring up the Sopranos? Probably and it would be equally ridiculous.

i have not the faintest clue how pointing out the fact that it's o.k. for young balck males to degrard young balck women EVERY FUCKING DAY on bet, but when one old white man says something rude and crude he is crucified.
dobs knows we got an alderman that refered to one of his critics as a "fag".
he's still in office.
say a gay alderman refered to one of his critics as a "nigger"?
what do think would happen?

Crown Heights Riot
...occurred after a car accident involving the motorcade for the Lubavitcher Rebbe killing a young boy Gavin Cato. A riot was sparked after a private Hasidic ambulance came to the scene and, on the orders of a police officer, removed the Hasidic driver from the scene. Gavin Cato and his cousin Angela were picked up soon after by a city ambulance. Caribbean-American and African-American residents of the neighborhood then rioted for four consecutive days fueled by rumors (in part driven by Sharpton), [7], [8], that the private ambulance had refused to treat Cato. [9]
Sharpton became the de-facto representative for the Cato family. During the funeral he referred to "diamond merchants" considered a code word for Hasidic Jews [10] [11], for shedding "the blood of innocent babies" leading marchers shouting "No Justice No Peace". Sharpton did not start the riots but his rhetoric was seen as inflammatory and unhelpful in easing the tension between the black and Jewish communities. A visiting rabbinical student from Australia by the name of Yankel Rosenbaum, 29 years old, was killed during the rioting by a mob shouting "Kill the Jew
Freddy's Fashion Mart
In 1995, Sharpton led a protest in Harlem against the plans of Freddy's Fashion Mart, a Jewish-owned clothing store, to expand into a black neighborhood, displacing a black retailer. Sharpton told the protesters, "We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business."[13] Three months later, an armed protester forcibly entered the store and burned it down, killing himself and seven others.[14] Sharpton distanced himself from the crime, claiming the perpetrator was an open critic of the civil rights leader and his nonviolent tactics. Nonetheless, Sharpton later expressed regret for making the racial reference, "white interloper," though he denied responsibility for inflaming or provoking the violence.[15] [16]

that's not the point. why were rappers ever brought up in the first place? cuz their black.
Imus tried to explain it away by saying "well they do it too!"
That's fucking stupid.

Im not defending sharpton, he's an opportunistic race-baiter in all reality. take sharpton out of the equation entirely.

who's winning in this thread? the tree huggers or war mongers?
- mrdobolina0
The object of all of the pundits who bring up rappers in this is to pin it on someone else besides the man that said it. That's just my opinion, I might be wrong, but that's what I see.
I see Imus as a sacrificial lamb, people are going to be paying closer attention to the big dogs now, Rush, Hannity, Neal Boortz, Mike Savage, these guys say the real messed up stuff.
I mean Rush called Obama a Halfrican-American.
Boortz called Mohammed a rag-picker and said that Islam is a religion of violence.
And so on and so on.
These are public airwaves these people are on.

"I mean Rush called Obama a Halfrican-American."
"Boortz called Mohammed a rag-picker and said that Islam is a religion of violence. "
as long they ceed control of their emotions to the words of some jackass, they will be weak.
..and you just endorsed censorship.
american speeh should know no limits, that shits for the towel heads.

I don't see it as an argument, I just don't want my opinions to be mocked. It's been a while since I participated in the political thread, cause it just pisses me off. I still read every single one of them for some reason.

public airwaves and stickered albums are different, you actually have to buy cd's. The radio is free.

Alot of black and white rappers, and comedians, talk about bitches, and hos, throw around the n word, incite violence....
making these terms and actions are acceptabel in our society...
Imus was saying that he is a comedian, and he was simply doing and saying what has become culturally acceptable because of the lyrics and words of those people
his mistake was that he said it with a cowboy hat on

howard stern went to xm because he wanted to be able to say whatever he wanted without the fcc breathing down his neck.
