Don Imus firing and Duke exoneration

I don't know how to respond to the Imus firing. Look, he shouldn't have said "Nappy Headed Ho". He's had a long history of saying stupid things and it finally got him fired. I don't think he should have gotten fired. I think the suspension was warrented, but I don't believe he should have been fired.

There is a double-standard when it comes to speech. I know blacks can say things that whites can't say...I don't think its fair but that's the way it is. What really irks me is how the black radio hosts, like Steve Harvey, basically equated free-speech with race. Last time i checked, free speech wasn't exclusive. I think we have opened up Pandora's Box and now everyone will be watched, including Hip Hop. And yes, it is the same to say the "N" word and use "hoes and bitches" in songs and and also for someone to say them in public. Even though the hip-hop community doesn't think its the same, it is.

What i'm really upset about in this whole mess is that Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson once again get to use their terrorist tactics on people and there is no one to call them out on it. All they are is money-grubbing terrorists who have not only gone after whites in America with lies and hate, but have also held the black community hostage for a long time. I would like to know why we call them "reverends." I have never seen them act like Pastors. I don't even think Jesse or Al has seen a Bible in a long time, much less opened one up. I'd like for someone to correct me if I'm wrong on this.

I would also like to say "Its About Time" in the exoneration of Reade Seligman, Collin Finnerty and David Evans in the false rape charges at Duke University. It only took 390 days for these guys to finally be cleared of ALL CHARGES. The witchhunt that was leveled on them was incredible. I have always hated Duke and the elitist attitude that accompanied its students and the school, but from Day 1, i believed these boys were innocent. Mike Nifong, who stood amongst the black community in Durham, trying to get reelected, called these boys thugs and rapists and said he would bring them down. He almost succeeded. When evidence didn't go his way, he withheld it. I have never seen such a rouge prosecutor in my life. Now, he has his own problems. For those of you who have not followed this case and would like to get additional info on this case, please read the columns of Dr. William Anderson at www.lewrockwell.com. His current piece is today, which is an open letter to the 3 guys. you should read it and here it is...http://www.lewrockwell.com/anderson/anderson182.html. I'm waiting for Jesse Jackson to publicly apologize to these 3 boys, as he vilified them many times in the last year. Just as he demanded an apology from Imus, i'm demanding one from him. Those boys will never get one, but in the end, who really cares. At least they can now go on with their lives, exonerated from the heinous charges leveled against them.
