I never said that Imus did not deserve what he got. What I said was that I don't understand why Sharpton was involved given his very checkered past for even worse offenses.... that he has never issued an apology for.
Imus screwed up big time and from what I have read it is not the first.

Zoo name one political person that don't have skeletons in their closets. Name just one please..And please don't say Ronald Reagen, Or George W. Bush...And don't tell me that Al Sharpton, or Jessie Jackson are not political, both ran for the office of the President. I hate Bush & Chaney but hey ....Sh** Happens. as you said "no one said life was fair" so what changed Zoo? What happen to make you change your thinking if you believed that passage?

no, I have not chanaged regarding my opinion of fairness. But I do get disturbed when a person wants to crucify someone else for a crime that they committed and never repented from.
Course the media has a role in all this as well. They love to stir the unrest and give time to who is the most flamboyant and interesting figure in front of the camera.

For now on when I log on to this forum expect for my words to be very curt. I believe with my very being if Martin L. King was still alive he would be posted up with Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, as a dirty double standard trouble maker. Oh thats right the three marched together in the civil right era. Let's really look at double standards - President Clinton was impeached for a blow job What about President George W. Bush still in office he and his criminal cabinet has brought this country to the edge of devastation. 1 million dead Iraqi's over 3000 American Solders Dead, 25,000 wounded. And Americans are hated even more thanks to him and his ambition. Lets not forget the Katrina debacle, people are still waiting on F.E.M.A . And White America are ****ed about a Shock Jock. Because white Americans feel blacks are getting a double standard grow the He** up.

Don Imus

What he did: Mr. Imus from the air in the wake of his comments disparaging members of the Rutgers women’s basketball team. On April 4, Mr. Imus referred on the air to the Rutgers athletes as “nappy-headed hos.”


Who he said it about: Rutgers women’s basketball team. Eight African-American and two white players.


Why: Have not found an answer to that yet other than his mouth went on before his thinking.


Additional info: Immediately after the show's executive producer, Bernard McGuirk, called the team "hard-core hos." McGuirk referred to the NCAA women's basketball championship game between Rutgers and Tennessee as a "Spike Lee thing," adding, "The Jigaboos vs. The Wannabees."

Packer made comments that were viewed as disparaging to women and men such as Georgetown guard Allen Iverson as a 'tough monkey' during the Hoyas' nationally televised game against Villanova" during that year's NCAA tournament. Packer later apologized for his comment(s).



I am offended by Packer and McGuirk more so than Imus. All three of them had the case of "Foot tastes good",but in my opinion Packer and McGuirk are worse. We try to teach our children not to say anything if they don't have anything nice to say,yet look at all of the so- called adults who love the taste of feet!

My question is not about white this and that saying this and that about mostly black players.

My question is how would any of those so-called grown men feel if someone loudly and openly dogged one of their children as they have done to others? It's not hard at all to stop and think to yourself is this something I would be mad about if someone said it about my child(grown or not)? Why apologize? It's a little too late once you open mouth and suck on toes!

*** This isn't a newsflash.***

Pull up to a intersection and listen to the blasting "music" of black and white youths and listen to how women are described and demeaned.

*** Or the country blaring about how the wife or hubby cheats,the wife or hub is a drunk***

Watch television and see two opportunistic black leaders call for the firing of a shock jock for racism.

***Or watch the news where soldiers are being killed.***


Watch a national broadcasting company who owns a record label that releases questionable content (and makes money on it)fire a shock jock for a comedic comment.

***That's up to whomever wants to spend their money on it. You can get the one where there's no cussing,..... your choice. That's why this is America after all.***


See Presidential contenders rush to the emotional rescue of a women's basketball team who's SCRIPTED heart-tugging 15 mins of fame helped the media make a mountain of a molehill.
Wonder how many of these tatoo'ed, 3.5 GPA holding respectable "ladies" even knew who Imus was before this? Also wonder how many of these 3.5 GPA holding, tatoo'ed "ladies" have had incidents with the law. (Oh no don't stereotype, just the kind you'd take home to Mom!)

***I have a cross tat on my ankle,OH MY does that make me a horrible person? Does that mean you can name call me? Don't think so!***


See companies whose business is vaguely supported by the supposed offended pull their advertising!
What a joke, the real idiots are the ones who let this crap go on.

*** What crap? Like the name calling of people who have done nothing to you? Yeah I agree that "crap" should be stopped!***


If anyone who feels the same should stop watching NBC based programs, CBS media outlets and stop buying GMC autos, Head-on pain killers, Staples Office supplies and anyone else who has used their dollars to Kow Tow to the likes of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson while their race is
self destructing daily with racism and hate of women.


***Hate for women are in all races. Yes,it's true all races have those certain little boys who think they are real men.*** ~Real men KNOW BETTER!~


What opportunist and hypocrites, see if above mentioned ever get another penny of my money.

***This is America. Your choice.***

Phoenix, his "punishment" as you think he should have gotten should be nothing. Whats the punishment for NWA (n*ggers with attitude) for their lyrical transgressions against women and racism?
I think I still see Jesse Jackson in the public eye after calling people Himey's.
Imus is a comedy show, last night I saw on HBO some supposed black comedian calling the black race n*ggers and eluded to the black brothers in the audience with white women.
What is it a double standard? Your race can call itself n*ggers and demean women all over the board and when a white show host makes a joke it's a national issue and he is fired?
I wonder how many of the offended ever heard of Imus before this? I wonder what percentage of Black consumers actually support the advertisers of the Imus show.
It's a double standard and it's ********. Tell jackson and sharpton to take care of their own race and start with Poop Dogg who is still out of jail after being a persistent felon, drug user and demeanor of women. Why don't they call for his incarceration?
You are a moron Phonenix just like the two aforementioned "leaders" you so dearly support and love.
Shove it up your *ss.

You have to be the most unintelligent poster I have ever seen on any forum! Are you here to discuss or use us as your target holder? Grow up little one. Nobody here deserves your kind of ill mannered replies. I have reported your disgusting way of posting to others. I encourage others to do so as well. We all have disagreed from time to time but we do try to respect each other so you should try it! People like you will end up making this a monitored forum again where it takes forever to get our post out there. STOP IT!
