Lakisha is a black lady talking about a black lady's hair

Imus is a white guy (who also likes to wear a cowboy hat at times...that's 2 strikes) who was talking about the hair of black ladies.

Logic is this in America

Black comment about black people - "True"

Black comment about white people - "Funny"

White comment about white people - "Boring"

White comment about black people - "Racist"

Imus wasn't referring to himself. But he should probably go see a hair stylist anyways.

Why should she have been kicked off? she got a signed statement from JESSIE JACKAS* AND AL SHARPTONGUE saying it's ok to use that word!!!!!!!!!!

"THEY ARE THE "NAPPY" GODS"!

No. Why should she? She is merely saying that she has a trait associated with Blacks. Imus connected that trait %26amp; hence by implication blacks to immorality.

Get out of here. Wrong category. Go to The entertainment and slut-fest category.

She was Black. Imus was white.

One of Stevie Wonder's greatest hits used the word nappy to describe himself as a little boy.

"I Wish"

Looking back on when I

Was a little nappy headed boy

Then my only worry

Was for Christmas what would be my toy

Even though we sometimes

Would not get a thing

We were happy with the

Joy the day would bring

only whites can be racist, you didn't get the message?

You should have seen my hair as a kid.lol She was referring to herself,no harm done.

Lakisha on American Idol stated that she had "nappy" hair as a kid... If she didn't get...?

No, I suppose she can refer to herself any way she pleases. She might take exception to someone else doing it. Just like it's okay for me to berate myself for cutting my hair short like an idiot like week, but if someone else says to me "Hey you're an idiot for getting your hair cut short," they're cruising for trouble.

EDIT: LOL Sure they have to say it, that's not a problem. Actually I do think pretty highly of myself, though I make stupid decisions sometimes (yes it will grow back and thank god for that, it looks like crap lol!). I never really did have a problem with Imus' freedom of speech. I think the point I was trying to make, and obviously didn't do a very good job ;-), was that if a person wished to make personal comments about another person or group of people, then they should also be cognizant of the possible fallout from making those comments. Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing, but sometimes people just don't use common sense about it and then complain when others take offense. Imus didn't complain, he apologized in the end. Up to him though, in my view he had a right to his opinion, but I still think he was an ijit for saying it, shrug.
