Now, now scummy......it takes just as much energy to be nioce:yes:

[SimJen]

Yeah not good. You can see his point of view but perhaps he went slightly over the top :)
That video doesn't really show the guys heckling him before-hand.
If you were doing a show and some group of pricks up the back starting shouting, it would piss you off. A clever comic would poke fun back though without overly offending and get bigger laughs.
Kramer is more of a visual comic, and sucks at telling jokes ;)

[Big Dave]

thanks for the link. fwiw i would have walked out too and I used to think he was great.

did you note there is a little utube icon in the compose page now.

[Skyryder]

Never been a Sienfield fan. Saw something on the news. Seem to me Kramer can get abused and no one takes any notice. Turn it on to the abusers as he did and all hell breaks loose. What's good for the goose 'use' to be good for the gander. Not any more. All this ethnic shit. Hey I'm an ethnic. A white one in the winter and a brown one in the summer. Does that make me a chemealeon?

gosh - that was a bit cringy! Imagine being in the audience and paying to see that *blinks*. i am not PC at all but he went overboard. I see he has apologised for what he said but the issue is that he said it and it certainly shows where he is coming from. To think i thought he was hilarious in Seinfield.......*eep*

Could be the result of the tantrum that was mentioned in this post! (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=39351&highlight=kramer)


Michael Richards better known as Kramer from TV's Seinfeld.
This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act.
He makes some very interesting points.


Proud To Be White

Someone finally said it.
How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me 'White boy,' 'Cracker,' 'Honkey,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman' ... and that's OK.

But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ...
You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?
You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television) we'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.
If we had White History Month , we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance' OUR lives we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any colour can be in the Miss America pageant.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships you know we'd be racists.
There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US. Yet if there were 'White colleges' THAT
would be a racist college.
In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for
our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce
our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats
up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud. But you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

He has made some decent points there and I have to agree with him 100%

[onearmedbandit]

Agree 100%. I remember years ago an album came out title 'Black and beautiful'. Imagine the backlash if one came out called 'White and wonderful'. We have a NZ Maori rugby team, not racist. Imagine a white-only team. In American they have the African-American Awards that recognise significant African-Americans. Imagine a White-American awards? And by just having an African-American award, what are they saying about themselves? That they can not compete with the white man? That they are still oppressed?

All this is making me feel like some of you are going to call me a racist myself. That's fine by me. I'm just proud to be who I am, a member of the human race.

[Mully]

Sounds a bit like NZ now. Sad really.

[ital916]

I reckon everyone should HTFU, it thought it was funny. The whole racism thing has been blown to one side. I think racism most of the time is a crock of shit, sure there are some things you shouldn't say, but i've seen people who are crying racism turn aorund and say something equally racist back and believe it's okay. Because they are saying it to a white person. It's funny how there are two standards now eh! And i do believe the guy who started it called kramer a cracker......isn't it nice for him, allowed to be racist back.

The Clash-White Riot


White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own
White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own

Black people gotta lot a problems
But they dont mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick

An everybodys doing
Just what theyre told to
An nobody wants
To go to jail!

All the powers in the hands
Of people rich enough to buy it
While we walk the street
Too chicken to even try it

Everybodys doing
Just what theyre told to
Nobody wants
To go to jail!

Are you taking over
Or are you taking orders?
Are you going backwards
Or are you going forwards?

I'm sorry
For something I didn't do
Lynched somebody
But I didn't know who

You blame me

A hundred years before I was born

You guys must live in a different NZ to me.

Er, why would he have to go to court to defend racsist coments? Hoax.

[tri boy]

I'm coloured, and proud of it!

When I get sun burnt, I go Red.
When I feel sick, I go really White/Pale.
When I'm envious, I nearly turn Green.
If I ever get Jaundice, then I will go Orange.
If I don't get too sun burnt in summer, I turn slightly Brown.
When I get really old, I'll turn quite Grey.

Niggars can't be that adaptable.:devil2:

South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu walked by a construction site on a temporary sidewalk the width of one person. A white man appeared at the other end, recognized Tutu, and said, "I don't make way for gorillas." At which Tutu stepped aside, made a deep sweeping gesture, and said, "Ah, yes, but I do." - W Wink.

[Wingnut]

Er, why would he have to go to court to defend racsist coments? Hoax.

Perhaps - but in the states nothing would surprise me. Anyway - take from it what you will.
