Any black actor makes white people jokes, and the moment Kramer tells a few black people jokes he gets anally raped by america. Good job, society.

Just cuz your friend has no self-respect doesn't mean other people want to hear racial slurs and shit like that. (I personally am not even black and I don't want to hear/read that) Sure once an a while it's meant to be comical and that's ok I'll overlook it, I have a sense of humour, but to just say n**** all the time when referring to a black person, that's just bullshit. Why does it even matter what the skin color is.... unless it's important to what you have to say, just leave the race out of it.
It's not really a matter of political correctness... because I don't care it you say policeman, or etc, but this is a matter of using a bullshit word.there's a difference.
Self-respect? It has nothing to do with that, getting offended by profanity is something you get taught to do, because infact, if you don't know the meaning of the word, there's nothing offending about words.
I still stand by my statement, are you're not really the kind of person who should try to be the "bigger man".

Jokes are fine, but he got pissed at some hecklers and started being a racist, which is a let down cuz I'd expect some good burns from Kramer, racial shit is just lame and the last resort of a unintelligent person.
The fork up the ass thing doesn't count, that was a funny joke, the rest was pointless racism.
You've much to learn young one :Smug:

It's a matter of opinions, which i guess is something you have to learn, people think differently, don't try to act superior because you don't have anything else to say.

Random insults isn't changing the fact that you still don't have any clue what it's about.
I'll stop the arguing because i don't have anything else to say, i, unlike you, can admit that because intern3t isn't everything.

Where's a random insult??? I haven't insulted you, I simply stated a fact. If you think saying the n word is ok, for whatever reason, then you've much to learn. You are young so I forgive you, don't worry, you'll understand when you grow up
I know my rights
Sure, unless you aren't paying the bills / fees to run this site. In that case, you follow the rules set forth.
If you stop and read to what you said, you will notice the 'key' to proper usage of the word "nigga" - you mentioned the word FRIEND.
The term "nigga" is used as a friendly term, among FRIENDS. If you are white, and you have an established friendship with a black person and they see it as OK to call them that, hey, by all means go for it. However, try walking down any street and walk up to a black person you don't know and say "Yo what up nigga!" and see what happens. You'll more than likely be introduced to Mr. 5 Knuckle Sandwich.
Summary: You don't use the word as a general term referring to someone black. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with being uptight, non-hip, "not getting it" etc. - it has to do with friends whether it's white/black or black/black. Even some black folk do not enjoy using the term nigga. I have many black friends and I do not use it and they have never referred to themselves using it.
True, sometimes I do think black folk have a bit of a double standard, then again I don't mind if it is coming from a comedian.
I am the biggest Kramer fan in the friggin world, but what he said was racist and uncalled for, heckler or not, and his backlash was deserved.
I still love his work though! UHF rules!

it looks like you don't have the full picture. lots of comedians rip on entire races, but kramer singled out one person and ripped him a new one, which was in poor taste.

I'm well aware of that, and i think people misinterpretated me. I was simply saying that it SHOULD be more accetpable, as to my standards, i don't see anything wrong with the terms (any ethnic profanity, not just against blacks).

no, I got what you were saying. how I see it, changing other people is prettymuch out of your control. so, change yourself. you could try to get people en masse to accept by overusing the word, but im sure that would be counterproductive (see how that went over in clerks2) or just dont be racially profane and you probably would get better results.
