Richards Says "Very Cool" People Use N-Word

November 27th 2006 20:35
"Michael Richards' tour of contrition continued on Sunday when he appeared on the Rev. Jesse Jackson's radio show to apologize for his racist rant at a comedy club.

He said that he was 'shattered' by his actions, and that his N-word-laced tirade towards black patrons at the Laugh Factory, shown exclusively on TMZ, came through him "like a freight train." What's more, Richards told Jackson that his rant was fueled more by anger than by prejudice. Still, Richards also tried to impute some of his racist screed to common vernacular. He said that he fears 'young whites will think it's cool' to use such hateful slurs because they see 'very cool people in the show business' using the word freely. Presumably, Richards wasn't referring to himself."


"Very cool" people also smoke crack, sleep around and gamble away their money too.

Adrienne,

How can they be excused for racism that's obviously running around in their heads waiting for an "excuse" to be released

It's all pretty terrible really. I can't think of any N...ice way to describe it. And it's so angst.

'Man' has a lot to learn about the family of man.
