It would be a so called apology or even an "apology" but it can't be a "so called" apology. If you're going to go to the effort of uploading and making a judgement go to the effort to proof read too. Also this is an incredibly brave and sincere apology.
The author of this is retarded lol. I think you meant: so-called "apology". Then again, writing so-called kind of makes the quotation marks unnecessary.
i agree with michael and im black .....but im not a nigga.... just like chris rock said " blacks hate niggas more than white do" thats what people dont get there is difference, just like there is a difference between trailer trash rednecks and whites........... and richards was provoked by ghetto loud mouth ass niggas not blacks dont get it twisted
Fuck you faggot letterman you fucking cocksucker you dont telll us whats funny and whats not you stupid motherfucker you are the most unfunny person there is and this was awkward as fuck.
You don't have to be racist to say the word Nigger..... you just have to want to hurt someone... as a white guy, the worst word to call a black man is Nigger... Doesn't really mean you are a racist.
@stiffy616 Exactly. My god, I don't know how many times I have to explain this to people before they understand.
If you don't like a black person and you want to upset them (which is the entire point of insulting somebody), what do you call him? A jerk? Fuck that, you go to the top.
@larcenz Nigger is a derogatory word and makes you sound dumb. It is only a word dumdums, you do know that some Africans were not enslaved right? Stupid racist trash.
@AngelicPrincessxoxo Firstly, in reagrds to "dumb". I consider dumb a person who uses the word sound, when refering to a comment online. The word "seem" actaully would be the correct terminology. Secondly, dumdums isn't a word, and shouldn't be used. Thirdly, if nigger is only a word, then why do you get upset enough to reply with vex? To answer your question, yes. What can I determine about you from your reply, and my first to last. Lastly, your a NIGGER.
Anyone who posts this video with a title like this has bad intentions behind it. I bet it wouldn't have mattered what he said or did you still would have accused it of not being genuine. You don't know the guy, before or after this and what he is doing to change his life so quit pretending like you do. He f***ed up big time, and although I hear he's worked on it and is better off now, I hope he continues to better himself so everyone can learn from this and help stop racism.
@SYDSTL80 - You don't make sense. He was talking about tensions between white and black people in the U.S. Katrina hit New Orleans which has a high black population. If you can't remember, there was a lot of criticism at the time for the lack of support by the government. Many people suggested that it was due to the large black population of the area. If there were images of lots of white people in the same situation, then the government may have come in sooner, let's say in Portland, OR.
this is we're we anti-racists slip up. A few idiots give us a bad name. I'm not talking about richards. I'm talking about the fuckers on here who destroy a guy for a breakdown that included some horrible language. I watched it, it was just Borat on stage, with a sensitive impatient audience. If they wanted hard hitting comedy they could have waited, he could have recovered and done the greatest things since richard pryor. But us lefties have to be as stupid as the right wingers.
Let a black guy or Latino do some shit like this to Jews and watch how he looses all his sponsors. America is ran by a bunch of Zionist Germans who are nothing but white supremacist just like the ones who killed them in the Holocaust.
So called? Go fuck yourself retard. Everyone who has never said this word is a total of 0. You're all a bunch of fucking bitches get off your high-horse. Everyone who doesn't like Michael Richards should be tortured to death
@SmashBrosFan19 I say nigger all the time. Not referring to black people, but to anyone who does something I don't like. Like those niggers who keep fucking with the timing of the street lights on my way to work. I have this one light on my way to work that is green for about 10 seconds long, and then this little side road gets an entire minute of green. So there's trucks, cars and semis sitting at a red light on this 4 lane road, waiting on NOBODY on the 1 lane side road. Damn niggers.
So what? He is a comedian. If you go to a comedy club and take things seriously you are at the wrong place. And I guess he wouldn't have gotten mad if there was no missunderstanding.
@ValenciaFan1 oh please. the guy obviously went crazy on stage, otherwise he wouldnt be apologizing like this. not everything is comedy, son. not even in a comedy club
@DONDIVA1969 His career was long over before that incident. You dumbasses think THIS is what ended his career. Yeah, because he was all over the place after Sienfeld ended.
@DONDIVA1969 You're pathetic if that's what makes you happy. His career was already over, but his career being over again makes you happen. Awesome. You're an idiot.
@ninjajesus81 - I must be a pathetic human being then. I loved the way he groveled and humiliated himself on Letterman to no avail in order to save whatever remnants of a career he had left. It was fucking hilarious and innately gratifying at the same time.
@ninjajesus81 - I figured if I fucked with you enough that sooner or later you would come out of the racist closet and show me just how you really feel. I learned in 3rd Grade that sweeping generalizations like the one you just made indicate a elevated level stupidity, ignorance and bias. Your opinions are tinged with racism and are therefore don’t really mean shit.
@DONDIVA1969 There's a difference between a generalization and racism. Look it up. Morons like you can't wait to call someone racist, but you almost never use it correctly.
@ninjajesus81 - Racists love to hide behind semantics. There are many nuances to racism and therefore many definitions of it. One such definition; the belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes. Look it up.
@ninjajesus81 - A person with average intelligence would understand the implication in that definition of racism that it is not citing physical attributes. Ascribing certain behavioral inclinations to individuals because of their ethnicity is racist. You stated that "blacks don't forgive people, they like to hold a grudge for everything. Scientific fact Blacks are more prone to certain diseases but can you back up your statement with scientific evidence? Show me then.
@DONDIVA1969 You said the definition of racism is the belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes.
If that doesn't include physical attributes, then your definition sucks because it doesn't say that. I think you just made it up, so don't expect me to fill in the gaps in your shitty definition.
@ninjajesus81 - Google the entire definition. Acknowledging physical differences does not make one a racist. That’s obvious and implicit in the definition. Definitions by necessity are brief and it is assumed that one is has the intelligence to parse the implications intrinsic in them. Apparently you are not very competent in that regard. When negative behavioral traits are innately attached to a certain ethnicity the way you did that’s racist.
@ninjajesus81 - Google the definition it's on Wikiwords. I believe you would rather think I made it up; it’s easier on you that way. It's implicit in the definition because otherwise it would label everyone as a racist, very unlikely. I know that’s hard for you to understand. Bottom line you’re stupid. Taking my time to fuck with you makes me feel like I just screwed a two dollar crack whore. I feel like I need to go take a shower. Schools out, you’re dismissed.
What ninjajesus is saying is a generalization that is actually not really scientifically accurate. There are many people in the Mediterranean that have Sickle Cell anemia, Large increase in population larger increase in people with lighter skin having sickle cell anemia. Lots of "blacks" do not have sickle cell. Many Blacks in the west have the ethnic groups that held this where chosen and then breed in high yield. "Whites and Blacks" can have it. Genes are funny
Jesus Christ shut the fuck up you stupid bitch. It's over. Its been over for years. No one gives a fuck anymore they've moved on to the next celebrity scandal..9/10 people have said the word nigger. Have you ever said it? Are you a hypocrite?
at least wait until blacks stop killing robbing and raping before you apologize... sharpton will defend a murderer as long as he's black.... and believe that black killer could be reformed...but a white man says nigger and he should die... whos the real racists?
If you're black. The word shudn't be used by anybody. Period. If you're someone who uses it in you're common language and try to use it as if it doesn't matter....you're worse than he is. Guess what, if George Lopez or maybe even Jeff Foxworthy said it. Ppl probably wouldn't get as offended. The extent of what Richards used the word was extremely rong...but he's apologized about it.
As a black person...who FULLY understands comedy as i practice stand up myself....i can honestly say that if you cant handle a joke....then get out of the club. He said it to get some shock laughs...granted...he over did it and thats what he should be apologizing for...but truth be told this is suppose to be a freedom of speech country and he shouldn't of gotten hit this hard. The ppl who should be targetted are those who use it in common language as in " sup ma'nigga". Doesn't matter if you're
People will hurt other people in life thats just what happens and some times you don't even mean it it just happens at the time and we regret that eventually we got over the whole Obama's comment to the special Olympics crap but this happened along time ago and still people are upset about this crap.I think that people just need to forget about this and move on he came back to the club later on to apologizes showing that he dose regret it. people just like to bitch about this crap forever.
i reckon he just trying to be funny, and hes just not a very good comedian. He said some fucking bad things, i reckon he just thinks he fucked himself. He wants to apologize and get back to his normal life.
nobody made a fuss when mike tyson made racial slurs towards whites in his public rage on tv. same thing here people. lets be fair here if we all believe in equality.
@Fagottron Also, 'Apology' has two P's. You can any word/s in quotes. Depending on the word/s you want to emphasise. There's no right or wrong quotation.
i'm white, the black man is my brother, the asian is my brother, the arab is my brother, but not the jew, the jew is a rat, the jew is racist and evil
In this case, I would like to stat eh Dave Chappelle is a racial B@zt3rd and deserves to apologize to all white people. This is getting to much. Leave the guy alone. He apologized, and has admitted his wrong doing and is willing to fix those burned bridges. I wonder how many OTHER non Afro American comedians actually lost there temper and used some racial slurs. That rich prick, should've have left because he ruined the show 4 everyone. I hope he gets socked someday.
0:37 A COMEDIAN saying "Stop laughing, it's not funny" in a COMEDY show is one most ironic things you can imagine. Someone should have said something like "well what the f*** are we here for then?"
I don't hate blacks, I actually enjoy AFRICAN (As in Africa)Culture. The thing I hate is Black Americans, which are far from African as you can get. Skin color has nothing to do with it, it's the personality they assume they must adapt because of their color. I'm not saying all African-Americans are like this so don't flip off the handle ya bitches but many of them give into the stereotypes which they moan and whine about on the news 24/7
In the Uk if I call a blackman a ''Black b@st@rd'' I will be haulled before a court of law for racism. Yet a blackman can call me a ''White b@st@rd'' and nothing is done, as that is not seen as racism. One rule for one and another rule for others. By far blacks are MORE racist than whites. They say ma nigger this and ma nigger that all the time, yet a whiteman says it and whole fuckin hell breaks loose? If the word is sooo bad, perhaps blacks shouldnt use it either eh? Hypocrites
You're a complete moron. You don't understand the basic structure of the English language. The word itself is not offensive, it's the context in which it's used. "What's up my nigga" is colloquially the same as "Alright mate". "Niggers shouldn't be allowed in the same bars as us" is not the same usage of that word. I agree that racism toward white people is not punished enough or at all in most cases but in UK, white people are far from being the minority which is also usually a consideration.
Noone is saying whites are a minority in the Uk, yet whites have far less equallity when it comes to racism. How often do we see a white taking a black to court for racism? Very seldom. Whites dont bother as they know it'l be a complete waste of time. Yet on the other side of the spectrum blacks play the race card like theres no tomorrow, I've seen this 1st hand many times. Hmmm I wonder if myself (being a whiteman) can also say to a a black, ''whats up ma nigga''?
I'd be accused of racism if I were to say such a thing no matter what ''context'' its used. And not a moron, just a realistic view of the present times and a differ of opinion.
@hisssyffffit very well said. I think blacks are the only one obsessed with skin colour and no one else. And this poor guy is just an amazing actor and for me this is the most sincere celebrity apology I've ever seen! If this was in Europe, people would take it as a real apology but since it's in America everyone just wants him to have a whole life ruined because he wasn't quiet as they are allowed to provoke everybody and than act like they're so innocent and not guilty of anything!
Hi. Unfortunately that is not true.. Americans are a lot more forgiving of their celebs than we europeans are. The UK press is famous for its callous treatment of celebs.. I love micheal richards though and i dont think he is racist.. he was just angry. Chris rock adressed this once in his act. He said "If i was angry at someone with one leg.. I would mention the leg" or words to that effect. This is so true, when we are angry we find the best way to hurt, even if its not what we really think.
To me(i'm European) this is a minor blooper. Definitely not a kind of thing that would cost someone career if it happened in my country. I think Europeans (continental) are still more objective and look at both sides and not simply accuse someone of something for just some sentences. I think it's important to look at the whole situation. Some people say a lot when they're angry and don't really mean that for real. Real racists are usually the silent ones and speak with their acts not words.
@jujuhec I agree completely that europeans are a lot more sensible than americans. In the UK we had a similar thing with carol thatcher, daughter of ex prime minister margret thatcher.She said the word nigger in a really casual way. No anger involved. Almost as if she thought that it was common knowledge that niggers are inferiour. Her career was gone over night. She didnt apologise becase it was pointless and i dont think she really was sorry. Anyway, the UK press ripped her to shreds.
In a way you are correct but racism is the ideology that your race is superior to that of others. White racism to blacks is damaging and can inhibit the livelyhood of black people and cause deep hurt to the individual.. When a black calls a white person a name, the white person doesnt care as much because we have a history with which to define ourselves. Blacks are very touchy about being looked down apon and rightly so.. there IS a difference between white racism and black racism.
Racism can pertain to any race, not just whites and blacks. Also, racism is only defined to the person/s it's aimed at. One whiteman/woman may not be so bothered by a racist comment, yet another may be greatly offended, does this make the comment any less racist/disparaging? My guess would be no. However you try to justify it, racism is racim no matter what form it chooses to manifest itself. Difference? The only difference is color, as the comments can hurt the same depending on the individual
When a black calls a white person a name, the white person doesnt care as much? You are classing all whites the same, thats very discriminative. Have you asked the billions of whites if they care? there IS a difference between white racism and black racism?? Complete ignorance. They are both called ''Racism'' for a reason? Racism towards whites carries the same outcome as racism towards blacks.
Black racism to whites is also damaging, and can inhibit the livelyhood of white people and cause deep hurt to the individual. For you to think it doesn't is borderline racis and VERY discriminative.
Yes, blacks have a history. But the key word there is ''History'', the past. Why keep dragging the past into the present. Dont you think it's time to move on and stop living under the oppresious burdens our ancestors endured, times have moved on. The bottom line? If a black is racist to a white, it should carry the same judicial treatment as if it were reversed. It shouldn't be one rule for a black and another for a white. All forms of racism should carry equal punishment, desregard color.
@hisssyffffit you chose your user name very aptly. For the record. I am not racist. And yes I suppose that I am speaking for myself and the people I know. Not every white person. But if a black person said to you that white people are stupid or primative or uncivilised (Which are all themes of racism toward blacks) would you care? Words only offend if they are accepted as true.. If they are bollocks then how can they hurt or offend?
Yes I would care because unlike some I get offended by racism no matter who it's aimed against. Words only offend if they are true?? Dont be so silly, here's an example of your idiocy ..... Go into the street and call a blackman a black monkey b@st@rd? I doubt the blackman is a ''monkey' or indeed even a 'bastard', yet my guess is he'd get offended by this 'untruth' and probably hit you with so many lefts you'd beg for a right! Althought the statement is 'bollocks', it would stil offend.
@hisssyffffit Ever heard of a strawman fallacy? If you came to me and called me a piece of shit, it would annoy me, yes. even though I am not a piece of shit. I am talking about base causes of racism, not flippant abuse. If I called someone a black bastard agressively. Then he can respond to my agression. The aggression would be teh key factor in that exchange.. Also to pull you up on a point. He would be a monkey, He is also an ape. Just as I am both monkey and ape.and so are you.
The 'key factor' are the words used, not the manner their used in. Try it, goto a blackman in the street and call him a nigger spearchucker 'in a nice way' and see if your theory holds water? Somehow, I doubt it would. Base causes of racism are 8/10 flippant abuse, example? This vid you're viewing? Also, evolution? lol dont get me started on that. Hmmm I wonder why apes stopped evolving? Why there are NO mid-evolved apes? Ape evolution = No religion. It goes against every bible on the planet.
Of course it goes against every bible on the planet. Know why? Because those are ancient books writter by tribesmen in tents thousands of years ago. What were they supposed to think about evolution and science? They knew nothing about it! They needed a fundament for what to think of the world. So religion was formed. It's a very logical next step for them. They needed answers just as much as we do. But they didn't have the knowledge to answer them. So religion becomes a natural next step.
@hisssyffffit Your last comment said it all.. you are a cultist nut job.. What do you mean Why did monkeys stop evolving?? Are you one of those idiots that thinks that present day animals evolve form other present day animals??? hahahah and also most things go against the bible.. that is to be expected right??? I cant be bothered to discuss anymore.
@hisssyffffit THis video isnt the place to discuss.. Find me on my other channel
R1cku1n0x if you want me to answer any questions that you have on evolution, biology, philosophy, science, cosmology, psychology.. I would love to debate you on some of your beliefs
hahahaha who the heck d'ya thing you are, Bamber Gascoigne? This aint University Challenge ffs, starter for 10? lmao. Evolution, biology, philosophy, science, cosmology, psychology?? lol Do you feel threatened? Are you puffing your chest out as we speak? Do you feel the need for intellectual superiority, do you need that reassurance? Or is there another reason you threw all those subjects into the equation? Cause I assumed the topic was racism?
The reason was in reply to you disdain for a scientific fact such as evolution. I mentioned those subjects because all of them contradict the myth of creationism and also to a degree contradict outdated religious ideals.
@channelyourvoice Scientific facts or not. What most people find a bitter pill to swallow is, if we evolved from apes, then why are apes still here? Believe me, this is not just my viewpoint, I share the view with billions upon billions of people around the planet. More people are inclined to believe in aliens than the evolution ladder, don't that tell you anything? So I guess billions disdain from this 'scientific' fact? But hey, don't let that discourage you, go forth and educate my child lol
@hisssyffffit You are rediculously misinformed. Evolution is a fact. It is accepted as such by every academic instution in the world. It is confirmed by many scientific facts and observations. There is the fact that it is a mathmatical fact as much as anything alse. The science of molecular genetics confirms is it more than anything else. HUmans ARE apes. we did not evolve from them.. We along with every other ape evolved from a common ancestor which diverged into seperate distinct species.
@hisssyffffit I point you to the channel Aronra and thunderf00t. they are two youtube users who have quite a few informative videos on evolution. Thunderf00t has a series called "Why people laugh at creationists" which deconstructs and exposes the beliefs of creationists as false. Watch those videos and then go out and research the facts to see if they are true. cant believe that you think humans evolved from a modern day ape.. what one? chimpanzee? gorilla? you must be a troll
I don't believe humans evolved from modern day apes, is that not what I've been saying? How many scientists/institutions believe the evolution 'theory'? I can hazzard a guess a lot more disbelieve it, like every religious person on the planet? And there are by far more non than those who believe. Those who believe are a minority as there are billions who believe in god/allah etc, this by itself devalues the whole concept of evolution.
Science is not always correct eg: Eat this it's good for you .... ffs don't eat it it'll give you cancer. Drink this it's good for you .... ffs don't drink it it'll give you cancer. Science can be flawed and is not always 100% acurate. As science is mostly human translated, errors can and do occur. Everything in life is flawed, nothing is perfect.
@hisssyffffit You must be so dumb. Evolution is taught in the curriculum of every european country and I hope every advanced country in the world. How many people believe something does not change its truth. The facts are what counts. Also more people believe evolution than dont believe it. That is a statistical fact. You must be from america. Do some research and go to school.
@hisssyffffit Let me ask you this question. If a child has 400 to 500 genetic mutations. That is genes that niether its mum or dad has(This is a fact btw as proven by every case sampled so far by the human genome project). what is the logical conclusion? Lets not talk about personal beliefs. Given this single truth, what is the logical conclusion? What will happen given 100 generations? Have you heard of the "12 tribes" experiment?
Sorry, but how can humans have evolved from "modern day apes" when modern day apes are just as modern as we are? That's not evolution at all. It's a common misconception. Everything thats living today are just as modern as we are. Some species just havent changed that much. That's evolution. Which btw, has nothing to do with this video.
@hisssyffffit its Nigga. and its a word some use. that doesnt mean they want some white guy calling them a word from back in the years of slavery. your story seems really exagerrated
@Cruze5000 Really exaggerated? It's the truth believe it or not. Some white guy? That implies it's ok for blacks to use to blacks, but not whites. Is that not a form of racism in itself? Slavery slavery slavery FFS get over it, that was years ago. Sick to death of hearing the slavery bollocks. Yes it was bad, but ffs stop living in the past and move on! Times have moved on, and so should blacks where slavery is concerned. It was wrong, but It's over, it's abolished, it's the past, move along ppl
@hisssyffffit First of all who the hell said anything about slavery? and since he wants to say shit from back then, then yeah hes wrong. I didnt hear anyone bitch about slavery, yet here you are implying something that i have never seen black people do. I havent said shit about Slavery! and people want to use words from back then, theyre the ones that want to live in the past. if anyones bitching here its you
@Cruze5000 Slavery? Read further down the list of comments. I was talking in general. And me bitch? Well, of course I bitch, as my namesake suggests? Blacks are racist, sometimes more so than whites. Thats a fact!
@hisssyffffit How do you know that? and if they are. at least they keep it secret. unlike white people that have a tendency to show it. i dont hear black people getting mad and yelling "cracker!" or anything
@Cruze5000 Experience, that's how I know that. You're black, so I wouldn't expect you to agree. C'mon, it's true. Blacks say the ''N'' word constantly to eachother, no matter what context it's used. A white guy says it, and oh, that's racist and whole hell breaks loose. I cannot go to a blackman and say ''Sup ma nigga'', cause that would be racist. Blacks are a segregation by their own doing.
@hisssyffffit Nigga is different from Nigger. its just some word they use when theyre in the hood and stuff. but why do whites want to say that? i dont ever use that word. but is that why you think blacks are racist? whenever they say that theyre usually playing around. to me its kinda like saying some guys a bad person. If whites are getting so asshurt by that i dont know what to tell them. -_- get over it guess. dont you guys call each other something like Crazker or sumthin?
@Cruze5000 Why do whites want to say that? Why the hell not??? Are you saying whites shouldn't say it? Cause that's kind of racist in itself is it not? Nigga is a term used in African American Vernacular English that began as an eye dialect form of the word nigger. Different spelling, same meaning, look it up. So no, you are wrong, Nigga is not different from Nigger. If the word is sooo frowned upon in the black community, then perhaps blacks should refrain from using it themselves.
@hisssyffffit Why are white people so asshurt over it? its not being racist if your the same race. bcuz saying any racist things to your own race is like saying them to yourself. wats the big deal over one word? this is the kind of stop im talking about. White people bitch constantly over something so small it should be ignored.
@Cruze5000 Asshurt? Try English...... What's the big deal over one word? My point exactly. No big deal, hense Michael Richards said nothing wrong with the term ''Nigger'' :-) Pitchforks up your assed, yes, that could be seen as a little offensive. But ''Nigger''?, nope, nothing wrong with that.....
@hisssyffffit you just dont get it. Nigger is a term that was used for blacks in the time of slavery and segregation. Its very different from Nigga just bcuz they look similar doesnt mean theyre the same thing. Nigger is offensive. i cant believe white ppl actually think like you do
@Cruze5000 Nigger and Nigga mean the same thing, look it up in an online dictionary. Nigga derived from Nigger. I cant believe white ppl actually think like you do? This means you too are assuming all white people have the same opinion as me. I don't speak for the entire white race. I speak of my 'own' personal opinion. If one blackman gave his opinion on here, I wouldn't then say I can't believe all blacks think like you do? Because that would be saying all blacks are the same, That's wrong.
@hisssyffffit Also, that statement from you is borderline discriminative in itself. You just assumed 'All' white people think like I do. That proves, we are all a little racist, whether we like to admit it or not. Even you?
@hisssyffffit Thanx for acting like a hypocrite by saying that all blacks are racist for using that word. Nigga is more like the black version of dude. just bcuz you look up some bogus website doesnt mean thats what people use it for. not to mention that white people created Nigger. they just made a word thats more positive out of a horrid word white people cam up with. BTW where did you hear you racist for saying that?i already explained that bein racist to your own race is like making fun of u
@Cruze5000 Bogus webite? Dictionary. dot com? Hardly bogus. The problem is, you don't want to accept the truth, even if it's set in stone. If white people created 'Nigger', then why the hell can't the white man use it whenever he wants? Hmmm don't think I said all blacks are racist for using the 'Nigger' word'? Blacks are using the word as if it's their 'Own' personal terminology, well, it's not. Blacks assume they are still owed something from the slavery days, again, they're not.
@hisssyffffit "Blacks are a segregation by their own doing". yeah... bcuz that word is offensive ot blacks. i thought you we are past that era. you complain that people always bitch about slavery, yet look at you. you want to use words from back then. that are offensive and wrong. i havent ever seen a black person say that white people owe him anything. thats just what you think
@Cruze5000 The word is offensive to blacks, yet they call eachother it all the time? Offensive and wrong, yet they say it all the time. Nothing was said about the black guys calling Richards ''Cracker''? Their comment was just as racist, yet nothing said, why? Because whites don't bitch about racism like blacks do.
@hisssyffffit i told you they dont mean the exact same thing, and theyre the same race. if Kramer had the guts to say shit, he can expect shit to be said back to him. that guy was just defending himself. but honestly all i ever hear is white people bitching that other races dont like them, and about the media. its not like black people paid the media to cover their stories all the time. white ppl run the media, Not us!!! so leave us alone
@Cruze5000 They DO mean the same thing, have you not looked it up yet? Thought you were educated? Defending himself? What, by using racism? Have you not heard that 2 wrongs don't make a right? White people this and white people that, you are a racist my friend, your comments show this fact. I've NEVER heard a white person bitch others don't like them. Oh, I forgot, you assume all whites are the same don't you. There's a word for that, it's called ''Racism''. Media? Who mentioned the media?
@hisssyffffit have you heard of dont get mad get even? well on the case that you assume every black person is racist bcuz they use the word Nigga when in fact not all of them do. this is what im talking about, you take things way too seriously. and you try to believe it was the black guys fault by not acknoldeging what Michael said. i mean i stupid white boy ro anything really to get soo offended over? how the word is used is different a website cant tell you how ppl use it, only wat they think.
@Cruze5000 Get even by fighting 'Racism' with racism? And you think that's right? No wonder the countries in a mess racially. I don't assume all blacks are racist for using the 'N' word, I never said that. That's just your 'assumtion', again. I said they use the word like they own the rights to it, as if the word is for them, and them to use soley. Well, it's not! Again, I used a 'dictionary' to clarify the 'Nigga Nigger' word, not a website. Dictionaries, remember them? Go look for yourself.
@hisssyffffit But I suppose the dictionary is wrong and you are right eh? It says (in black and white) : '' Nigga is a term used in African American Vernacular English that began as an eye dialect form of the word nigger (a word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the colour "black") ''. Even faced with the truth, you deny it. Pathetic.
It would be a so called apology or even an "apology" but it can't be a "so called" apology. If you're going to go to the effort of uploading and making a judgement go to the effort to proof read too. Also this is an incredibly brave and sincere apology.

If you can't remember, there was a lot of criticism at the time for the lack of support by the government. Many people suggested that it was due to the large black population of the area. If there were images of lots of white people in the same situation, then the government may have come in sooner, let's say in Portland, OR.

ninjajesus81 1 year ago
@ninjajesus81 - A person with average intelligence would understand the implication in that definition of racism that it is not citing physical attributes. Ascribing certain behavioral inclinations to individuals because of their ethnicity is racist. You stated that "blacks don't forgive people, they like to hold a grudge for everything. Scientific fact Blacks are more prone to certain diseases but can you back up your statement with scientific evidence? Show me then.
DONDIVA1969 1 year ago
@DONDIVA1969 You said the definition of racism is the belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes.
If that doesn't include physical attributes, then your definition sucks because it doesn't say that. I think you just made it up, so don't expect me to fill in the gaps in your shitty definition.
ninjajesus81 1 year ago
@ninjajesus81 - Google the entire definition. Acknowledging physical differences does not make one a racist. That’s obvious and implicit in the definition. Definitions by necessity are brief and it is assumed that one is has the intelligence to parse the implications intrinsic in them. Apparently you are not very competent in that regard. When negative behavioral traits are innately attached to a certain ethnicity the way you did that’s racist.
DONDIVA1969 1 year ago
@DONDIVA1969 The entire definition? You didn't provide the entire definition, yet you expected it to fly.

@ninjajesus81 - Google the definition it's on Wikiwords. I believe you would rather think I made it up; it’s easier on you that way.

Taking my time to fuck with you makes me feel like I just screwed a two dollar crack whore. I feel like I need to go take a shower. Schools out, you’re dismissed.

You're a complete moron. You don't understand the basic structure of the English language. The word itself is not offensive, it's the context in which it's used. "What's up my nigga" is colloquially the same as "Alright mate". "Niggers shouldn't be allowed in the same bars as us" is not the same usage of that word. I agree that racism toward white people is not punished enough or at all in most cases but in UK, white people are far from being the minority which is also usually a consideration.

Hi. Unfortunately that is not true.. Americans are a lot more forgiving of their celebs than we europeans are. The UK press is famous for its callous treatment of celebs.. I love micheal richards though and i dont think he is racist.. he was just angry. Chris rock adressed this once in his act. He said "If i was angry at someone with one leg.. I would mention the leg" or words to that effect. This is so true, when we are angry we find the best way to hurt, even if its not what we really think.

To me(i'm European) this is a minor blooper. Definitely not a kind of thing that would cost someone career if it happened in my country. I think Europeans (continental) are still more objective and look at both sides and not simply accuse someone of something for just some sentences. I think it's important to look at the whole situation. Some people say a lot when they're angry and don't really mean that for real. Real racists are usually the silent ones and speak with their acts not words.

@jujuhec I agree completely that europeans are a lot more sensible than americans. In the UK we had a similar thing with carol thatcher, daughter of ex prime minister margret thatcher.She said the word nigger in a really casual way. No anger involved. Almost as if she thought that it was common knowledge that niggers are inferiour. Her career was gone over night. She didnt apologise becase it was pointless and i dont think she really was sorry. Anyway, the UK press ripped her to shreds.

In a way you are correct but racism is the ideology that your race is superior to that of others. White racism to blacks is damaging and can inhibit the livelyhood of black people and cause deep hurt to the individual.. When a black calls a white person a name, the white person doesnt care as much because we have a history with which to define ourselves. Blacks are very touchy about being looked down apon and rightly so.. there IS a difference between white racism and black racism.
channelyourvoice 2 years ago
Racism can pertain to any race, not just whites and blacks. Also, racism is only defined to the person/s it's aimed at. One whiteman/woman may not be so bothered by a racist comment, yet another may be greatly offended, does this make the comment any less racist/disparaging? My guess would be no. However you try to justify it, racism is racim no matter what form it chooses to manifest itself. Difference? The only difference is color, as the comments can hurt the same depending on the individual
hisssyffffit 2 years ago
When a black calls a white person a name, the white person doesnt care as much? You are classing all whites the same, thats very discriminative.

Racism towards whites carries the same outcome as racism towards blacks.

Yes, blacks have a history. But the key word there is ''History'', the past. Why keep dragging the past into the present. Dont you think it's time to move on and stop living under the oppresious burdens our ancestors endured, times have moved on. The bottom line? If a black is racist to a white, it should carry the same judicial treatment as if it were reversed. It shouldn't be one rule for a black and another for a white. All forms of racism should carry equal punishment, desregard color.

@hisssyffffit you chose your user name very aptly. For the record. I am not racist. And yes I suppose that I am speaking for myself and the people I know. Not every white person. But if a black person said to you that white people are stupid or primative or uncivilised (Which are all themes of racism toward blacks) would you care? Words only offend if they are accepted as true.. If they are bollocks then how can they hurt or offend?
channelyourvoice 2 years ago
Yes I would care because unlike some I get offended by racism no matter who it's aimed against. Words only offend if they are true?? Dont be so silly, here's an example of your idiocy .....

I doubt the blackman is a ''monkey' or indeed even a 'bastard', yet my guess is he'd get offended by this 'untruth' and probably hit you with so many lefts you'd beg for a right!

@hisssyffffit Your last comment said it all.. you are a cultist nut job.. What do you mean Why did monkeys stop evolving?? Are you one of those idiots that thinks that present day animals evolve form other present day animals??? hahahah and also most things go against the bible.. that is to be expected right??? I cant be bothered to discuss anymore.

@hisssyffffit THis video isnt the place to discuss.. Find me on my other channel
R1cku1n0x if you want me to answer any questions that you have on evolution, biology, philosophy, science, cosmology, psychology.. I would love to debate you on some of your beliefs

hahahaha who the heck d'ya thing you are, Bamber Gascoigne? This aint University Challenge ffs, starter for 10? lmao. Evolution, biology, philosophy, science, cosmology, psychology?? lol Do you feel threatened? Are you puffing your chest out as we speak? Do you feel the need for intellectual superiority, do you need that reassurance? Or is there another reason you threw all those subjects into the equation? Cause I assumed the topic was racism?
hisssyffffit 2 years ago
The reason was in reply to you disdain for a scientific fact such as evolution. I mentioned those subjects because all of them contradict the myth of creationism and also to a degree contradict outdated religious ideals.
channelyourvoice 2 years ago
@channelyourvoice Scientific facts or not. What most people find a bitter pill to swallow is, if we evolved from apes, then why are apes still here? Believe me, this is not just my viewpoint, I share the view with billions upon billions of people around the planet. More people are inclined to believe in aliens than the evolution ladder, don't that tell you anything? So I guess billions disdain from this 'scientific' fact? But hey, don't let that discourage you, go forth and educate my child lol

@hisssyffffit You are rediculously misinformed. Evolution is a fact. It is accepted as such by every academic instution in the world. It is confirmed by many scientific facts and observations. There is the fact that it is a mathmatical fact as much as anything alse. The science of molecular genetics confirms is it more than anything else. HUmans ARE apes. we did not evolve from them.. We along with every other ape evolved from a common ancestor which diverged into seperate distinct species.

@hisssyffffit I point you to the channel Aronra and thunderf00t. they are two youtube users who have quite a few informative videos on evolution. Thunderf00t has a series called "Why people laugh at creationists" which deconstructs and exposes the beliefs of creationists as false. Watch those videos and then go out and research the facts to see if they are true. cant believe that you think humans evolved from a modern day ape.. what one? chimpanzee? gorilla? you must be a troll
channelyourvoice 2 years ago
I don't believe humans evolved from modern day apes, is that not what I've been saying? How many scientists/institutions believe the evolution 'theory'? I can hazzard a guess a lot more disbelieve it, like every religious person on the planet? And there are by far more non than those who believe. Those who believe are a minority as there are billions who believe in god/allah etc, this by itself devalues the whole concept of evolution.

Science is not always correct eg: Eat this it's good for you .... ffs don't eat it it'll give you cancer. Drink this it's good for you .... ffs don't drink it it'll give you cancer. Science can be flawed and is not always 100% acurate. As science is mostly human translated, errors can and do occur. Everything in life is flawed, nothing is perfect.

@hisssyffffit You must be so dumb. Evolution is taught in the curriculum of every european country and I hope every advanced country in the world. How many people believe something does not change its truth. The facts are what counts. Also more people believe evolution than dont believe it. That is a statistical fact. You must be from america. Do some research and go to school.

@hisssyffffit Let me ask you this question. If a child has 400 to 500 genetic mutations. That is genes that niether its mum or dad has(This is a fact btw as proven by every case sampled so far by the human genome project). what is the logical conclusion? Lets not talk about personal beliefs. Given this single truth, what is the logical conclusion? What will happen given 100 generations? Have you heard of the "12 tribes" experiment?
channelyourvoice 2 years ago
Sorry, but how can humans have evolved from "modern day apes" when modern day apes are just as modern as we are? That's not evolution at all. It's a common misconception. Everything thats living today are just as modern as we are. Some species just havent changed that much. That's evolution. Which btw, has nothing to do with this video.

@hisssyffffit its Nigga. and its a word some use. that doesnt mean they want some white guy calling them a word from back in the years of slavery. your story seems really exagerrated
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Really exaggerated? It's the truth believe it or not. Some white guy? That implies it's ok for blacks to use to blacks, but not whites. Is that not a form of racism in itself? Slavery slavery slavery FFS get over it, that was years ago. Sick to death of hearing the slavery bollocks. Yes it was bad, but ffs stop living in the past and move on! Times have moved on, and so should blacks where slavery is concerned. It was wrong, but It's over, it's abolished, it's the past, move along ppl
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit First of all who the hell said anything about slavery? and since he wants to say shit from back then, then yeah hes wrong. I didnt hear anyone bitch about slavery, yet here you are implying something that i have never seen black people do. I havent said shit about Slavery! and people want to use words from back then, theyre the ones that want to live in the past. if anyones bitching here its you
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Slavery? Read further down the list of comments. I was talking in general. And me bitch? Well, of course I bitch, as my namesake suggests? Blacks are racist, sometimes more so than whites. Thats a fact!
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit How do you know that? and if they are. at least they keep it secret. unlike white people that have a tendency to show it. i dont hear black people getting mad and yelling "cracker!" or anything
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Experience, that's how I know that. You're black, so I wouldn't expect you to agree. C'mon, it's true. Blacks say the ''N'' word constantly to eachother, no matter what context it's used. A white guy says it, and oh, that's racist and whole hell breaks loose. I cannot go to a blackman and say ''Sup ma nigga'', cause that would be racist. Blacks are a segregation by their own doing.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit Nigga is different from Nigger. its just some word they use when theyre in the hood and stuff. but why do whites want to say that? i dont ever use that word. but is that why you think blacks are racist? whenever they say that theyre usually playing around. to me its kinda like saying some guys a bad person. If whites are getting so asshurt by that i dont know what to tell them. -_- get over it guess. dont you guys call each other something like Crazker or sumthin?
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Why do whites want to say that? Why the hell not??? Are you saying whites shouldn't say it? Cause that's kind of racist in itself is it not? Nigga is a term used in African American Vernacular English that began as an eye dialect form of the word nigger. Different spelling, same meaning, look it up. So no, you are wrong, Nigga is not different from Nigger. If the word is sooo frowned upon in the black community, then perhaps blacks should refrain from using it themselves.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit They can't expect to use the word on a daily basis, then bitch if a white guy uses it.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit Why are white people so asshurt over it? its not being racist if your the same race. bcuz saying any racist things to your own race is like saying them to yourself. wats the big deal over one word? this is the kind of stop im talking about. White people bitch constantly over something so small it should be ignored.
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Asshurt? Try English...... What's the big deal over one word? My point exactly. No big deal, hense Michael Richards said nothing wrong with the term ''Nigger'' :-) Pitchforks up your assed, yes, that could be seen as a little offensive. But ''Nigger''?, nope, nothing wrong with that.....
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit you just dont get it. Nigger is a term that was used for blacks in the time of slavery and segregation. Its very different from Nigga just bcuz they look similar doesnt mean theyre the same thing. Nigger is offensive. i cant believe white ppl actually think like you do
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Nigger and Nigga mean the same thing, look it up in an online dictionary. Nigga derived from Nigger. I cant believe white ppl actually think like you do? This means you too are assuming all white people have the same opinion as me. I don't speak for the entire white race. I speak of my 'own' personal opinion. If one blackman gave his opinion on here, I wouldn't then say I can't believe all blacks think like you do? Because that would be saying all blacks are the same, That's wrong.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit Also, that statement from you is borderline discriminative in itself. You just assumed 'All' white people think like I do. That proves, we are all a little racist, whether we like to admit it or not. Even you?
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit Thanx for acting like a hypocrite by saying that all blacks are racist for using that word. Nigga is more like the black version of dude. just bcuz you look up some bogus website doesnt mean thats what people use it for. not to mention that white people created Nigger. they just made a word thats more positive out of a horrid word white people cam up with. BTW where did you hear you racist for saying that?i already explained that bein racist to your own race is like making fun of u
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Bogus webite? Dictionary. dot com? Hardly bogus. The problem is, you don't want to accept the truth, even if it's set in stone. If white people created 'Nigger', then why the hell can't the white man use it whenever he wants? Hmmm don't think I said all blacks are racist for using the 'Nigger' word'? Blacks are using the word as if it's their 'Own' personal terminology, well, it's not. Blacks assume they are still owed something from the slavery days, again, they're not.

@hisssyffffit Look, we have to wrap this conversation up. We are starting to take up entire pages. Let's agree to disagree?
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit "Blacks are a segregation by their own doing". yeah... bcuz that word is offensive ot blacks. i thought you we are past that era. you complain that people always bitch about slavery, yet look at you. you want to use words from back then. that are offensive and wrong. i havent ever seen a black person say that white people owe him anything. thats just what you think
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 The word is offensive to blacks, yet they call eachother it all the time? Offensive and wrong, yet they say it all the time. Nothing was said about the black guys calling Richards ''Cracker''? Their comment was just as racist, yet nothing said, why? Because whites don't bitch about racism like blacks do.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit i told you they dont mean the exact same thing, and theyre the same race. if Kramer had the guts to say shit, he can expect shit to be said back to him. that guy was just defending himself. but honestly all i ever hear is white people bitching that other races dont like them, and about the media. its not like black people paid the media to cover their stories all the time. white ppl run the media, Not us!!! so leave us alone
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 They DO mean the same thing, have you not looked it up yet? Thought you were educated? Defending himself? What, by using racism? Have you not heard that 2 wrongs don't make a right? White people this and white people that, you are a racist my friend, your comments show this fact. I've NEVER heard a white person bitch others don't like them. Oh, I forgot, you assume all whites are the same don't you. There's a word for that, it's called ''Racism''. Media? Who mentioned the media?
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit have you heard of dont get mad get even? well on the case that you assume every black person is racist bcuz they use the word Nigga when in fact not all of them do. this is what im talking about, you take things way too seriously. and you try to believe it was the black guys fault by not acknoldeging what Michael said. i mean i stupid white boy ro anything really to get soo offended over? how the word is used is different a website cant tell you how ppl use it, only wat they think.
Cruze5000 1 year ago
@Cruze5000 Get even by fighting 'Racism' with racism? And you think that's right? No wonder the countries in a mess racially. I don't assume all blacks are racist for using the 'N' word, I never said that. That's just your 'assumtion', again. I said they use the word like they own the rights to it, as if the word is for them, and them to use soley. Well, it's not! Again, I used a 'dictionary' to clarify the 'Nigga Nigger' word, not a website. Dictionaries, remember them? Go look for yourself.
hisssyffffit 1 year ago
@hisssyffffit But I suppose the dictionary is wrong and you are right eh? It says (in black and white) : '' Nigga is a term used in African American Vernacular English that began as an eye dialect form of the word nigger (a word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the colour "black") ''. Even faced with the truth, you deny it. Pathetic.
