Blog: A none comical rant on Imus

	Duration: 06:14 minutes Upload Time: 07-04-16 05:00:04 User: Xelanderthomas :::: Favorites
Description: First I procrasinated and debated making this vid, then I hesitated and debated uploading. It goes against my general trend towards comdey and fun videos. And also, the issue is far more complex and layered and contridictory in my mind than can be conveyed. My response here really isn't so much to or about Imus as it is a response to the "responses" I've seen on YouTube. For some reason I had to get it off my chest a little without doing a comedic parody of the issues. And I have to say even if may sound contary to what I'm saying on the video. I don't beleive this guy should have been fired. (I also don't embrace Al Sharpton and his madness) none of this is discussed in the video by the way. The Imus comment I referre to. Tell me if you agree that that is the statement he is making or if it's just me: http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=vsOX7Bx61 oU

Xelanderthomas ::: Favorites Nah, this is a perfectly reasonable and level-headed opinionated rant. Just like any other rant. It ain't got shit to do with being a victim nor does it make black people look like victims - it's my fucking opinion and I have a right to it. That's you take it to reflect the whole of black people that's your issue, not mine. Sorry. 07-07-08 18:31:22 _____________________________________________________
Xelanderthomas ::: Favorites No I don't. I have problem with Imus and not even with Imus...just that one aspect of what he said. that's all. 07-07-08 18:32:59 _____________________________________________________
qituvituaq ::: Favorites Your right, what he said WAS a wrong thing to say. But to get so worked up about it shows how sensitive about words and putting so much power in a word. Shows how racist this country still is the day when someone can talk crap about black, native, or even a Asian person without getting pissed off or even caring. Will be the day racism is dead and over with 07-07-08 20:31:03 _____________________________________________________
qituvituaq ::: Favorites who gives a shit bout racism caring about racism is fucking racist if ur not racist then u shoulden't give a flying fuck what people say, racist or not 07-07-08 20:31:16 _____________________________________________________
Xelanderthomas ::: Favorites Here's the way free speech works. You can say whatever you want about a thing...or opinon or whatever and I get to say my opinion of your opinion. I've said several times that the man shouldn't have lost his job or whatever and he has the right to say it. But whether something is racial or not - is irrelevant. If I don't like it, I can say that, just like the person who says it has the right. There's nothing off base about what I've said here. 07-07-09 06:46:56 _____________________________________________________
Peppy7777 ::: Favorites I agree with you because you do not subscribe to the double standard that has been expressed by other black people. I believe that if Snoop Dogg called your daughter a nappy headed ho, you would be just as angry at him as you would be at Imus. I appreciate your sense of fairness. 07-07-16 17:40:31 _____________________________________________________

TineWoodbe ::: Favorites Imus is a comedian. He was making a joke. He rips apart everyone in the name of humor just as Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphie, and Chris Rock have done for years (see Chris Rock's video on how he likes black people, but hates niggers-his words) Imus has ripped up many more rich white politicians than any other demographic on his show-because it's a SHOW! A comedy show primarily. 07-08-04 00:37:40 _____________________________________________________
