Michael Richards - standup at "Just For Laughs"

[RYN988]

The man is funny.

PERIOD!

[Settve]

What the fuck can u have against this guy ? Its a racist ? So what ? Niggers are niggers. They even smell like shit...Fuck'um !

[DuderinoV]

I've seen that dipping belt thing before. I had the same reaction.You've gotta know what he's talking about.

[pfitge1]

There is a "WET": every other channel besides BET.

There is a White History Month: every other month besides february....and that's not entirely dedicated to black people (thanks a lot Washington).

I'm not going to bother responding to the "White Pride Day" part because there is no "Black Pride Day", you retard.

People like you are pathetic: you get the social advantage of being white, you fail because you're incompetent, and rather than recognize it, you blame it on a persecuted group.

[solargesture]

those hecklers were right, NOT FUNNY

[stoopifyd]

that audience was too polite

[raizin8]

i feel sorry for americans if someone can say 'he had no neck' and an audience erupts with laughter...

[solargesture]

@raizin8 they didnt burst into applaus and laughter because of the neck comment but because he did the kramer move

[fattony123082]

He is not racist what happened was he was clearly trying to make a joke and panicked that's all he panicked ... But I lost respect for him because of apologizing and kissing ass to jesse jackson and al sharpton the 2 most racist men in the world...

[solargesture]

@fattony123082 what does it take for a person to do to be called racist? he obviously is a racist and so are you calling sharpton and jackson racist while defending this jack ass. its obvious who's side youre on

[pfitge1]

@solargesture The kid is a supremacist and that kind of rhetoric is probably because he didn't pass the 3rd grade. This idea of "reverse discrimination" is constructed out of their own failings.

[butterf1yz]

There's a video about comedy, and 100% of the comments are about race. Nice.

[kNbrood]

hey , i'm white... all you white and black idiots just calm the fuck down... ok?! we are all humans in God's eyes.

[wowyourshit1]

@kNbrood gods dead.

[kNbrood]

@wowyourshit1 yeah? maybe you're right.. it does seem a bit SF the whole "GOD" ideea..,,

[Katingaan]

HE HAS NO NECK!

[sune1112]

Kramer is gay.

[arnebmoux]

Michael Richards is a great guy and a great and talented comedian. Too bad people always talk about and remembering him for beeing racist. He doesen't deserve it...

[NICHOLAS3467]

@arnebmoux true dat

[elmagicomessi]

this is great

fuck haters

[originallhamfist]

You have the United Negro College Fund, You have Martin Luther King Day.

You have black history Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi. You have the NAACP. You have BET....

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.

If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance' OUR lives, we'd be racists.

[DeadlyDictator]

@originallhamfist I dubbed march white history month.

[TomValedro]

@originallhamfist /facepalm

[2superfan2]

@originallhamfist White History Month? Why do you guys need a White History Month if it's always White History Year? All students learn in school is about white History. George Washington to Julius Ceasar. We are always learning about white history so is it really that bad to have a month just to blacks? There really shouldn't even be a month our history should be taught along white history

[JPSS97]

@2superfan2 Geroge Washington and Cesar are not 'white' history, they're just history. MLK isn't 'black' history, he's just history. February isn't 'black history month', it's just a month.

Why has this come up again? What does this have to do with Michael Richards?

[2superfan2]

@JPSS97 Hey, buddy. How about instead of wasting your time and reading my comment out of context you see what my comment was replying to. I didn't just randomly start talking about history- i was replying to this guy ignorance -.-

[JPSS97]

@2superfan2 My comment was directed towards both of you. Still, nothing about it has to do with Michael Richards. I'd save it for the proper environment.

And in all, I stand by what I said. And I am neither racist nor non-racist.

[sushiserv]

@2superfan2 Excellent speaking point. Seriously - this is a point that is rarely glossed over. All we learn about is white history. Europe is all that is in the history books. And our American kids don't even know that well (Palin, every other Tea Partier).

[originallhamfist]

@2superfan2 When was the last time you opened the history books provided students today? Your comments sound like 1960s rhetoric.

[2superfan2]

@originallhamfist I just opened up a history book a couple weeks ago when i had to type a research paper for my anthropology class. anymore questions u idiot?

[originallhamfist]

@2superfan2 No need to resort to name calling, as you seem intelligent. So did you find mention of Blacks in history lacking?

[sushiserv]

@originallhamfist This might actually come from a long standing history of the fact that whites were major oppressors of most places during the days of imperialism & conquest days.

It isn't only blacks that would feel this way - there are many races who feel when WHITE PRIDE is yelled in the street feel like an attack is coming on because the white pride movement is OFTEN associated with violence. Germany - a stellar example. When a Germ starts waving a flag.. shit goes crazy.

[ahersi29]

@originallhamfist Well let's see. Maybe the thing in common with the people who have mentioned is that they have been persecuted for hundreds of years. The blacks (slavery), the Jews (Holocaust), and the Latinos who did not exist until the Whites came over destroyed and annihilated the indigenous tribes and mated with what was left of them all in the name of Christianity and in the name of some misinformed monarch. P.S White History Month? Open an American History book lately?

[icecoldcity]

@originallhamfist

Whites don't need White Entertainment Television.

90% of American television features white people.

White Pride Day? Ha! that's what white magazines & television is for.

You don't need White History Month it's already 360 all year round.

What you think they teach in U.s. history class.

Organization for whites to 'advance' OUR lives?

Yeah it's called The Ku Klux Klan & Aryan Nation.

[originallhamfist]

@icecoldcity You must not be watching ESPN. I think your percentage estimates are false.

[icecoldcity]

@originallhamfist

My percentage was wrong I meant 99.9 percent.

ESPN is one channel buddy.

Only reason Blacks are on there because the network

will only talk about the most popular players.

If you are not winning ESPN won't mention you.

So don't bullshit me with that rebuttal.

You're not talking to an idiot here.

[FuckingDracula]

@originallhamfist Michael Richards HIMSELF disapprove this tirade. Get FUCKING over it.

[madeyes4u]

@originallhamfist You don't need White Pride Day, WET, White History Month, etc. White people don't need any of that stuff because everyday is a celebration for them. In general, White people are so fucking blind. Why the fuck do you think you need an organization to "advance" your lives? America IS your fucking organization. Get over yourself and the shitheads who gave you a thumbs up are exactly that...shitheads.

[originallhamfist]

@madeyes4u OK, a typical double standard topped off with a name calling insult. Yes, you deserve special mention in history.

[Slavatronix]

@originallhamfist We have the most amount of money, land and power in society. We serve statistically shorter jail sentences for the same crimes as blacks, we typically have better access to nutritious foods and health care, we are more likely to be hired for jobs than equally qualified black applicants, less likely to be found guilty of crimes when the same evidence is presented... really I think we should not be the ones complaining - you bitch. Stop making whites look weak

[pfitge1]

You're a moron. I can't believe this was the best liked comment. I guess that just means there are 44 other morons out there.

[pfitge1]

@originallhamfist and Yom Hashoah is a Jewish holiday so you're also an anti-semite (and just so stupid). You're a supremacist which is funny because you're also an embarrassment to other white people.

[damncopycats]

@originallhamfist first of all we blacks dont have anthing because everything we do consider for us....white people own them ...such as BET...MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY ...AND SO FOURTH...AND WHITES DO HAVE ORAGNIZATIONS FOR "WHITES ONLY" IT CALLED AMERICA LMAO .....NAW BUT SERIOUSLY THIS SHIT IS STUPID

[waveorange345]

@originallhamfist white people dont care anyways . We made those so blacks and mexicans would stop bitching. (:

[Goliath1886]

hahah

[XxPropheticxX]

I enjoyed his standup alot :D not sure what everyone else is talking bout him not being a good stand up

[ztarrfect]

Without him Seinfeld would be as good but than again the whole cast was really amazing together I think he would be great in a theater. His acting is great. Something in style of Kramer could be fun.

[stupidheadface33]

people thought he was funny back then because of how popular seinfeld was. it was a great show, but he's not very good at standup.

[0PublicEnemies]

why is this funny..oh wait its not

[elmagicomessi]

this guy is a legend

[viresproductions]

Any one else realize theirs no 2:13?

[lokalllize]

he reminds me of dane cook

[Monitor1CC]

Michael Richards is a great comedic actor but yeah, this is pretty weak. His standup doesn't work, now I know why he bombed in that club that night he freaked out.

[jimiele]

he seems to be best at physical comedy

[xoloesquincle]

kramer sucks

[33001428]

i miss that man

[paxryan]

Thanks for posting this so that the issues weren't the only result when you search for his standup:-)

[poop121]

Would've been funnier with more n words

[jordiston1]

some of its funny, look at my arm, look at this. this is how big his thumb was. that made me laugh

[98765432123456789000]

wow, the crowd is actuly laughing at this??? Man, his rant was actuly more entertaining than this

[flescum]

Even the racist rant clip is funnier than this. He`s terrible at stand up. But I like his acting.

[Ramble1212]

boring no wonder ppl talk during his show

[GeneralGuy77]

It's hard to find any actual stand up with the nigger stuff plastered everywhere.

[BricktheGrim]

One of the greats!

[ciyean]

This is funny to really old or very dumb people. Just the facts.

[jtpruzz]

@ciyean Or maybe his humor is just too clever for you to get.

[Andybaby]

Hey, look everybody - 1:33, it's a nigger!

[GeorgeDerkevorkian]

@throbulator427 true lad my bad good stuff :)

[GeorgeDerkevorkian]

black people nowadays are too sensitive to words... u need to kinda focus on more important issues. Michael aka Kramer is a genius. at least he's original..

Cheers for the post

[throbulator427]

@GeorgeDerkevorkian it was wrong what michael did..no doubt about it. let's not talk about his racist rant on a good video

[GeorgeDerkevorkian]

@throbulator427 true lad.. my bad. Good shit :)

[KJStewart93]

@GeorgeDerkevorkian I've watched him before and after the incident in my opinion he was only funny on Seinfield but to each his own I guess and the comment on black people was idiotic. Your basically saying that someone should be able to insult anyone because its just words. You may not know this but words hurt we should all try to be more sensitive to others feelings :)

[BigDaddyDJD]

lol pretty good

[Vassild]

lame he was only funny on seinfeld 

[ignorethiscomment]

didn't lol

[XxWarArtistxX]

Still not funny, at least for me anyway.

[wikidklown1678]

wow he's bad lol 

[wallymeldrum]

i love it. do you know of any other stand up performances before the incident?

[DefManic]

@wallymeldrum what incident? 

[wallymeldrum]

@DefManic Where Michael got both index finger caught in jam Jars and couldn't hold a mic anymore.
