I am so shocked! And disapointed! I really liked this guy. I can’t believe he’s a fucking racist…

I don’t see who should be shocked at this- a convicted murderer having other shortcomings- but people also need to realize that you can use say things like that out of anger, and not necessarily mean them. I have no idea if this is the case here, but its a possibility. And it doesn’t justify it either way.

Heh, you know I wanted to but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I had so much respect for this guy untill about five seconds ago when I heard the audio tapes on the Howard Stern show this morning.

But alright I’ll give it a shot anyway…

Dog you scum sucking piece of shit mother fucker. I hope you get bent over a garbage pale and ass raped by an aids infested half man half bear half pig creature thingy and your eye gets gouged out and pissed in.  
[shrugs] eh, that’s all I got. For some reason I still have South Park on my mind.

That’ll do Pig [sub]bear man[/sub]. That’ll do.  
I don’t know if I lost much respect for him or not. It seemed like he was trying to come off as a role model in his show, but I never quite bought it.

“Chapman said the clip was completely taken out of context.”

Um. Yeah. OK.

You can’t have a black girlfriend- not because she’s black, but because we say nigger around here and she’ll sell a clip of it to the media and ruin my career!

Hey, I have an idea- stop saying nigger and you won’t have to worry! Amazingly, I never worry that someone will overhear someone saying “nigger” at my house. See how that works?

I hope his career is ruined. What a jackhole.  
:mad:

Yesterday Michael Strahan was Dog the Bounty Hunter for Hallowe’en on Best Damn Sports Show. I wonder if he’d heard about the story already or not?

Is that how they got the tape? I have not seen a news account that said how, and I was wondering.

What a dumbass. I am so tired of people excusing calling someone a nigger by claiming that it only refers to certain blacks. Just pick another word, or man up and admit you’re a racist. If there’s something wrong with the girl’s character, call her a slut, or a thief, or a junkie, or whatever fits.

The biggest fear he expresses in the tape is that of losing his media career.

It’s funny how it never seems to occur to him that he could ensure his media image by simply NOT USING THE WORD NIGGER in everyday conversation to refer to black people.

Instead, he prefers to keep using it, but to try and hide that fact from his media public.

A rather odd set of priorities.

Even in the unlikely that someone had some respect for the guy, wasn’t he caught by a bounty hunter himself? That sounds like the ultimate loss of face for a guy like that.
