not as much detail as this:

http://vidclick.blogspot.com/2006/11/seinfeld-star-apologizes-for-outburst.html

and he admits he was wrong (and damn, does he look old). As I suspected, this isn't noraml comeback material for being heckled. Like I said, he should have made jokes about the guy's mother and actually be funny.

[Ninot]

The whole thing was much more awkward, but also a bit more revealing about him. He is quite sincere.

[Dis]

he looks bad though. He might be addicted to alcohol or drugs or something. That would be more likely to put someone on drugs and cause them to lose it.

[Pekka]

Man, what a ***** this guy is. Now he did ruin it. If he is saying he was raging, hey maybe he is a racist. Racist in a way that goes beyond the 'norm' because we all are racist at least a bit.

But that's his response? He got upset? THat's like Mel Gibson all over again then. I have no respect for that dude. He should have said it was a comedy cub and he was shooting down a heckler with lethal ammo. That's it. If someone is too stupid to get the concept, so what?

Alas, he didn't do that so.. who knows.

Says you.

I see a double standard here. Had that been Chris Rock, youd' be laughing your ass off, and if you deny, you lie.

I'm not saying throwing around racial slurs is cool. I'm saying you're in a zone where everything goes. Can't stand it, don't go there. Sarah Silverman is even more outrageous, there's tons of comedians who do a whole lot worse material.

Dude even throws threats, that's right, get your ass owned.

For me it's not about the racism, it's just not funny.
If Chris Rock did the routine we just saw on the video, he would suck.

Now if you're saying he can use racial slurs in a FUNNY way sure, and I don't mind if white guys do that either.

"Offensive material" has to be funny at a certain degree.
For example, Silverman usually is.
Does that clip make you laugh Pekka?

That would have been true if he had been funny. All he did was shout "******" a lot. What the hell is funny about that?

Damn all of the ex-Seinfeld actors except for Seinfeld really have the anti-Midas touch. Everything they do turns to ****...

Slur? No. Ignorance reaching for crutches? Yes.

Considering he plays the game and you don't, it is rather funny that you pulled geographical location as trump in an argument. It leads one to believe you didn't have much else to argue based on other than ignorance and stereotypes.

You're always so serious that it's depressing. Lighten up, old man.

Err... does Julia Louis-Druyfus' Emmy this past year factor into that?

I'm waiting for the usual celebrity out - plead drug/alcohol dependance and check into a rehab clinic.

A radio host had a great line last night - Did you hear M.R.'s holiday special was cancelled? It was called "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas"

Hey, at least he didn't resort to the "this is an opportunity for dialogue with the African-American community" bull**** like Mel did.

[Ninot]

He kinda did, Darius. He said it was good the Afro community stood up for itself, and the whole incident has brought to light that there is still tensions.

[Darius871]

Ah, that wasn't in the short youtube clip dis posted. I see what you mean from the 6min one.



"stop laughing, this is not funny!"

[Pekka]

No it didn't make me laugh, but it was amusing. As in, yes it's a category racial slur joke, just not a really good one.
