I've been watching some of the folks involved with the hip hop culture (DJs and BET reps) and it seems to me that if Imus was black he wouldn't have had any problem because its a 'culture thing'. I read something about Tony Blair saying London murders by blacks was a culture thing and was being criticized for it.

The people I'm seeing (DJs and BET reps) are now blaming it on 'big' corporations. Where is their responsibility. Blame the other guy. We are nothing more than victims. How stupid do the DJs and BET reps think we are.

My thoughts exactly. This is the biggest blown out of proportion double standard that I have ever seen. I would like to see the same thing happen to the Snoop Dog's of the world though, so when does this get to happen?

I'm tired of this whole thing. Sharpton is nothing but a racist idiot who won't let it go.

This is the 21st century...........when are they going to get over it.

Also waiting for Sharpton to apologize to those Duke lacrosse players who were wrongfully accused of rape by this black girl who made it up. These poor kids lives are ruined because of it. Boy, he was on his soap box then, but has found something better now.
