You Say The ‘N’ Word, And I Say The ‘Y’ Word!

 

Nobody’s Opinion; Having only seen five episodes of Seinfeld in my whole life, because I was on a stage somewhere performing myself at night, I perhaps can offer a different perspective to this whole “racist” comment by Michael Richards.

What he said was really “stupid.” Probably, he was tired, maybe sick, maybe worried about a million things…and the problem with performers is, no matter WHAT is wrong with your day or life, you have to be happy, UP, and full of energy when you get on the stage. You want to leave people going away from that night feeling good, or you will not be hired back to that particular establishment.

This is NOT a kind of job where you get any slack. Unlike people with normal jobs, you’re booked up weekly or in one night stands…not exactly job security.

And like a rich man once told me, rich men worry about money just as much as the poor: they just have bigger bills.

So, here is a table full of black people, who will not shut-up, who are rude beyond belief, who are so used to getting by with rudeness just because they can…it makes them feel powerful, and important—and the guy just flipped. They were probably being rude to him, because he was white.

I wonder if they were among mostly white people.

And unlike someone who works in an office and can hide his moods, a performer with hundreds of people looking at him, has to have control.

And when you have a heckler, they can take over, and you lose control of the crowd. You might not get it back the whole night.

I doubt this guy ever gets invited back to that club.

Barbara Streisand, not too long ago it was reported, told someone to “Shut the f…k up!” I’ve been to concerts of the most famous performers and seen them throw it right back at their audience. I once saw Janis Joplin throw a real hussy fit onstage, saying just about every cussword in the book. One time I saw the lead singer of Chicago refuse to start a concert because some people were talking back in the twenty-second row. His tirade went on for over thirty minutes.

Being onstage, is sometimes like that dream you had when you are back in high school walking the halls with no clothes on. If you’re having a bad night, little thing can get blown all out of proportion.

Although, my way of handling hecklers was to take a break, some performers especially famous ones, do not have that option.

So, this guy Michael lost it. And my guess is that, he was, like many of the “whites” in America, sick of always being called “racist” when in reality, every single day…you, the white person, are trying everything you can to be nice, only to be spat upon for something you did not do—but you are white, therefore, according to everything and everyone in America, you hate black Americans. The frustration can built up.

And many blacks take full advantage of that ace in the hole. We saw it recently with the stripper crying rape from the college boys at the fraternity party.

Then, to make matters worse, in the apology he was bringing up Katrina. Many of those people were on welfare. And it’s never their fault, it’s always someone’s elses.

Even my son, from listening to rap music, thinks that the reason blacks become drug dealers are because they have no other choice in life.

This is propaganda at its best, and only Bill Cosby is out there trying to refute it. By the way, have you noticed, Bill Cosby is NOT getting much airtime for his crusade?

For someone to lose it as this Michael guy did, means that he probably has had years of being tired of catering to rude, obnoxious blacks, and like the bullies at the school yard, having to never say anything because it was “not nice.”

He was tired of being muzzled. He went into the rant, but here is what is wrong…

If he had been black, everyone would have laughed. You know it, I know it. And it’s wrong.
 

How often did we hear Richard Pryor say that word? How often did he get to point out the silliness of the word? Richard Pryor saw the world as it was. Richard Pryor was a genius.

Obviously, this guy is not. He’s just not very bright. He got mad, and then tried to ad-lib it into a comedic moment, but he just couldn’t pull it off.

If a black man can call another black man that name, so should a white man…in affection, or in a heated argument.

For God’s sake, this is AMERICA. We are supposed to have freedom of speech.

We have been so brainwashed, that we have “hate” crimes, and cannot smoke, drink, or say certain words or you will end up on Homeland Security’s most dangerous list.

This is becoming simple blackmail and extortion, used for the democratic vote.

Men still call woman C…ts, and whores…and God knows what else, but you won’t see that on the evening news. And to many women those words are JUST as offensive as the n word.

So, why the double standard? Because of slavery? Or because the division between blacks and whites must be kept alive?
 

If you guessed number two, you get a cookie.

The black man should be able to call the white man also, whatever he wants.

What the real problem is here, is lack of manners, civility, integrity, and common decency.And that is being thrown out by mostly, Hollywood, and the left. That is why culture wars are being fought, along with the many other wars.Slavery still exists all over the planet. The Muslims and Africans still practice it. But, last time I looked, most white Americans do not practice it, unless they have their dogs or wives trained to get the beer.  

So now, a white comedian says it, and he was right…it WAS shocking for a white man to have the audacity to even dare UTTER the word, a word that has been kept alive by our politicians to keep us divided.

If we would allow Jerry Seinfeld to go onstage, along with Whoopi and say the n word one hundred times, maybe we would get over this stupidness. In fact, get all the comedians on stage, divide them into black and white, and let them call each other names for an hour….get it over with.

If the whites and blacks ever got together and realized what their government is doing to them, they would probably start looking on each other as people, not enemies.  

There are many blacks, who do see it as stupid. Like a reader of MND commented, no where else on earth are blacks treated so well.

But, better keep that n word alive and kicking. Bring out the Jesse Jackson parade.

Ever since Jesse Jackson and Clinton’s minions of “let’s divide and conquer” were released onto the public, we’ve seen the most virulent hatred come out of the black people all over America. Daily they have been reminded of past abuse; so much so, they have become exactly what they don’t want to be…slaves…for the Democratic Party.

What this guy should have said was “God, I’m sorry for calling those black people what I did. But on the other hand, there were many people there that night who came to listen to me perform, and those people were so rude and loud, and didn’t care about my act, or how hard it was to try and talk over them, so even though THEY started it, I will apologize if they will. “
 

Right…in this new politically correct world, I wouldn’t doubt if the man doesn’t get sued for millions. There are still Johnny Cochran’s seeing big bucks in this.

This nobody wonders just why in the word the ‘n’ word cannot be put back into proper order, with all the other English slang words like, polack, mick, bugger, idiot, wop, jew, and my favorite…prick.

But then, some would say I’m a bitch for even suggesting it.

Nobody’s Perfect—Unlike Mel Gibson, Rush Limbaugh, and Tom Cruise, (this one still kills me, he jumped on a couch and said he was in love, even Glenn Beck doesn’t trust him.) this guy will probably be forgiven because he mentioned Katrina.

I thought it was more appalling when Tom Cruise let Rosie kiss him.

Oh….I get it. He was jumping up and down about being in love with a Woman! If it had been a man, no one would have been upset!…takes me awhile.

I think Charley Rangel suggesting the draft, is a lot more damaging to the young African American men than Richards saying the n word in an angry rant, but that’s just me.

Nobody Knows— Someone said today on the radio, that a DVD was coming out this Friday with Seinfeld’s past episodes, therefore that was the reason for the Letterman apology. 

Nobody Cares— Despite the many “rude” and “racist” black Americans that I happen to run into every day, I run into just as many “rude” and “racist” whites. I’d say it’s about even.

In fact, I bet that’s just about the average everywhere.

I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in your yucky brown, one rink up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life;drummer/singer/keyboards---but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing...depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents...but that really doesn't make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS...which I have more of than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined, mostly political. Hopefully other nobodys will put their opinions on my site. But if you are a sombody...you're more than welcomed to help out. I will try to prove that sometimes nobody knows the answers, sometimes nobody cares, sometimes nobody wins, and most importantly...NOBODY is perfect. Please bear this in mind when you read my thoughts. I don't mean to offend nobody, it's all in good fun. | More from Joyanna Adams
