Michael Richards – Kramer from Seinfeld – completely lost it at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood Friday night, spewing racial epithets after being playfully heckled by a black guy and his friends. You can watch the video here, although it’s a pretty sad sight and I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re easily offended.
The camera started rolling just as Richards began his attack, screaming at one of the men, “Fifty years ago we’d have you upside down with a fucking fork up your ass.” Richards continued, “You can talk, you can talk, you’re brave now motherfucker. Throw his ass out. He’s a nigger! He’s a nigger! He’s a nigger! A nigger, look, there’s a nigger!” The crowd is visibly and audibly confused and upset. Richards responds by saying, “They’re going to arrest me for calling a black man a nigger.”
At the end he just walks off the stage defeated, secure in the knowledge he may be the saddest human being on the planet. The only way it could’ve been any more pathetic is if he slipped on a banana peel on his way off and his wallet fell out to reveal it empty of cash and filled with Arby’s coupons.
This fucking moron spends how much time logging in and out?

If that’s the troll’s game, let’s stop feeding it. Now. No more comments, ok?
Seriously, he must wack his willy everytime he comes up with gems like that. A chin full of cum and a chafed dick… that’s what I think ? is all about.
I didn’t post “I’m in.”
#301 I try and try to advise this troller and he/she isn’t gettin it. I laughed when I read that “If that’s the troll’s game, let’s stop feeding it. Now. No more comments, ok?” He or she is very desperate to “win” some kind of battle or something that he’s waging. So stupid and lame.
The funny thing is, I think ? is starting to actually argue with himself… posting entire threads all on his own. What’s the matter marshy? Afraid to come out? I get it… you’ll be ok… nothing a sniper rifle and a little time can’t solve. Pussy.
PrettyBaby, noun; see “follower”
fol?low?er – noun
1. a person or thing that follows.
2. a person who follows another in regard to his or her ideas or belief; disciple or adherent.
3. a person who imitates, copies, or takes as a model or ideal: She was little more than a follower of the regular commenters.
#305 Fuck, you got me completely nailed! A follower! That is what I am. Thanks so much for helping me. You are now my leader. I will follow you into the bedroom immediately.
YOU picked on me first. I am a lover, not a fighter. But I will fight if I have to.
Besides, I think people on this site can handle themselves just fine.
This is what happens when the fucking nutjobs of the world go off their meds.
It’s for reasons like this that parents should never buy PCs for their kids, and computers in general should cost $3000, just to discourage the douche bags.
more more more please MORE!!! this is the most continuous action – by far – that i’ve ever stirred up! just one more comment about me, by anybody, PLEASE – i’m about to cum!!! (but rich, you gotta try out something new and original, all the stuff about moms and dicks and snipers, you’ve said that over and over again, you’re in a serious rut. try to write a novel, have an affair, whatever it takes to get recharged. i’m worried about you, man.)
Is it just me or did he seem like a man on a MASSIVE amount of coke?
Yeah, I think so.
#309 Your just being silly now. Can’t you engage in a normal conversation? Is there something the matter with you, huh? I don’t care, I am waiting for a purchase agreement here at work so I have lots of time for you. You’ve insulted me by calling me a Childlike Follower so you got all my attention, now. I’m sure the rest will drop ya though.
YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! YEEEESSSSSS!!!
what a release. thank you, PrettyBaby. although not likely a rare event, skeeting on you was nonetheless an unexpected pleasure for me on a slow workday. here’s a kleenex.
#312 Ewwwwww..
I have a date tonight, but apparently I have to shower first before I see him, nice.
#312 Are ya done Darlin?? Good, then you got owned. All that trouble you made on this thread and you got owned by a childlike girl who loves to follow.

Unbelievable.
The only things I’m going to say, and this doesn’t justify it at all, what he said was fucked up and wrong…but…just like #8 was saying.
What if this was a black comedian on stage, repeatedly calling a white heckler a honky? Nothing. That’s what.
That being said, it was totally fucked up what he did, I’m not at all defending him, but I think this country needs to realize that racism completely exists, for everybody, especially in LA.
write a novel, have an affair, whatever it takes to get recharged
Comic gold!!!!
Here’s what I think about this whole situation. Don’t care.
People slamming each other. Don’t care.
M.Richards rage. Don’t care.
Blacks offended. Don’t care.
Whites offended. Don’t care.
Name calling. Don’t care.
Do-gooder rage. Don’t care.
Bridge building. Don’t care.
Bridge burning. Don’t care.
Caring. Don’t care.
Not caring. Don’t care.
Life can be sweet when you let the crap just blow over.
If this bothers any of you…..guess what.
The Black men in the audience should have had the manners to keep their big, fucking mouths shut during the show. What kind of person interrupts an entertainer in the middle of his act by heckling him? What respectful human being does that? Were they not asking for some type of retribution??? Granted Richards, who was obviously very frustrated and flustered by the hecklers, and went overboard, but the hecklers were just a racist as Richards. Calling Richards a “Fucking Cracker” after he responded to something they started? Is the term “Fucking Cracker” not also racist? Let’s not be hyporcrites here.
To all of the references in the string that more whites recieve welfare than blacks in this country. That is True. Government statistics on Welfare show that 38.8% or recipients are White and 37.2% are black. What they failed to mention is that Whites comprise of about 52% of the population, but blacks only make up 12%. That basically means that blacks are 4 times more likely to be on welfare than whites. The reasons for that are socioeconomic. There is a pretty strong correlation in this country between education and income, and despite the numerous minority scholarships and other advantages like affirmative action and college minority quotes, blacks still lag behind whites when it comes to education and income. I think that’s very unfortunate for the country as a whole. I think the black community needs to stop listening to the jesse jacksons and al sharptons of the world and stop looking outside of itself for reasons why it isn’t acheiving economic parity with whites. The black community needs to stop making excuses and start looking inward at family values and ethics as the solution to their problem. Rappers and Basketball players aren’t good role models for young people who want to acheive financial security. The economic success of whites has s nothing to do with this so called “white advantage”. What about asians who come to this country and can’t even speak the fucking language. They outperform everyone in acedemics and are beginning to surpass everyone in average income as well. Why do they succeed???? Hard work,respect education, and appreciation for the opportunities that this great country offers. That’s why. I work with successful people of all races and they all have these qualities.
Who gives a shit. Black people are racist all the time, including this incident. Calling someone a fucking cracker isn’t racist? I don’t see those hecklers or any of the “black community leader” scumbags apologizing for their racism against whites. Fuck them.
Michael Richards sucks. He sucked before this incident and he will continue to suck.
He made a mistake. He’s a little insecure. Who wouldn’t be feeling inadequate when you’re trying to live up to one of the most beloved characters of comedy of all time.
When you respond to hate with more hate… then how will any good come of it?
I forgive Michael Richards, just as I have forgiven myself for doing horrible things.
Hello, this is my first time. Be gentle with me. Since this incident I have heard many say that black comedians use the word and there is no backlash. Here is the difference. The way Richards used the word brought forth images that although we want to forget, we cannot and should not. Black women raped and their men know of it and can do nothing. Men lynched for looking at a white woman or speaking disrespectfully to a white person, which Richards commented on. This history is not the distant past. Although not in my lifetime, in my parents. This is the difference. There is nothing that can justify joking about lynching. Has history been forgottne this soon? It does not matter where the taping began, nothing justifies the use of lynching as a joke the way Richards did. I have to admit he must be in emotional pain because only a wounded person would react as he did. Hurting people hurt people, but America needs to learn to dialogue with each other. Blacks need to be able to voice how slavery and its aftermath, the aftermath just as harmful, hurt them and whites need to learn not to take it personal. This is how you heal. Communication. Dreamland, huh?
Give me break. The over-use of the n-word in our society has been perpetuated by none other than the people who are offended by it. Hip Hop music has desensitized Americas shock value of the use of the n-word. Black youths in the hip hop industry today have referred to each other more times as nigger than the white men that have imprisoned them through the years. The hip hop, gang banging, woman degradation, has reached epidemic proportion amongst the youth of our society. There has been no race untouched buy it
-yo kramer needs to be glad he pulled that shit in hollywood because had it gone down in new york he’d be hangin upside down with a fork in his ass.
-holla
#326 perhaps you need to read more black history and learn who really made the word “nigger” what it is today? It certainly was alive and well before hip hop came into existence.
Here is a bit of History for you.
The word nigger was a shorthand way of saying that blacks possessed the moral, intellectual, social, and physical characteristics of the Coon, Brute, Tom, Mammy, and other racial caricatures.
The etymology of nigger is often traced to the Latin niger, meaning black.
portrays blacks as lazy, ignorant, and obsessively self-indulgent; these are also traits historically represented by the word nigger, or as angry, physically strong, animalistic, and prone to wanton violence. This depiction is also implied in the word nigger. Whatever its origins, by the early 1800s it was firmly established as a denigrative epithet. Almost two centuries later, it remains a chief symbol of white racism.
The word nigger carries with it much of the hatred and repulsion directed toward Africans and African Americans. Historically, nigger defined, limited, and mocked African Americans. It was a term of exclusion, a verbal justification for discrimination. Whether used as a noun, verb, or adjective, it reinforced the stereotype of the lazy, stupid, dirty, worthless parasite. No other American ethnophaulism carried so much purposeful venom, as the following representative list suggests:
Nigger, v. To wear out, spoil or destroy.
Niggerish, adj. Acting in an indolent and irresponsible manner.
Niggerlipping, v. Wetting the end of a cigarette while smoking it.
Niggerlover, n. Derogatory term aimed at whites lacking in the necessary loathing of blacks.
Nigger luck, n. Exceptionally good luck, emphasis on undeserved.
Nigger-flicker, n. A small knife or razor with one side heavily taped to preserve the user’s fingers.
Nigger heaven, n. a designated place, usually the balcony, where blacks were forced to sit, for example, in an integrated movie theater or church.
Nigger knocker, n. axe handle or weapon made from an axe handle.
Nigger rich, adj, Deeply in debt but ostentatious.
Nigger shooter, n. A slingshot.
Nigger steak, n. a slice of liver or a cheap piece of meat.
Nigger stick, n. police officer’s baton.
Nigger tip, n. leaving a small tip or no tip in a restaurant.
Nigger in the woodpile, n. a concealed motive or unknown factor affecting a situation in an adverse way.
Nigger work, n. Demeaning, menial tasks.5

So, all should be careful when using a word that had such a long a dark history!
what a douche bag
