people forget the old quote

MandaLee, Yes, there does seem to be a double standard but that does not excuse Michael Richards or anyone else from spewing forth those obsenities.   We all need to take responsibility for our own actions, words and thoughts.  Actually, should be reverse order.  If we can keep our thoughts in subjection, the words and actions will follow suit.

absolutely
as i said in a different post about the same subject - Michael Richards is a BAD stand-up comic in the first place, and has never achieved the Kramer success since the show ended.  But black comedians put down white people all of the time (Kings of Comedy / Eddie Murphy) and even try to talk like a white person.  Jackson is always in someone's business - go chase another rainbow!!!
