I searched so I hope this isn’t a repost. Michael Richards was doing standup and starting yelling racial slurs towards someone in the crowd. heres the video from youtube. [http://youtube.com/watch?v=amjUNF\_R\_PY&mode=related&search=](http://youtube.com/watch?v=amjUNF_R_PY&mode=related&search=) I dunno if I can ever see him the same again. ---

CosmicWheels (2 hours ago) I was there and almost everyone stayed until he was done. The guy he was yelling at was being an Ass Hole. He wouldn’t shut up. He called him at least 10 different names. He said you suck, your an idiot, your a dumb ass white mother fucker and on and on. You only see 2:30 minutes. It was 10 minutes of two Black guys fucking with him. What’s new? They tried to piss him off and it worked. ---

I was going to say it really seems like there’s more to it, like the black dude had probably yelled racial slurs at him so Michael Richards responded in turn but just went too far. Oh well, yet another case of racism only goes one way… Well, nah if you’re an on-stage performer you need to restrain yourself and/or be more subtle… ---
