Kramer’s career is done. I saw him on to catch a predator with Chris Hansen last night as well.

hmmm…

2ND!!!!! LOL@ people’s determination to be first in every post.

I love Paul Mooney. Why did the reporter have to explain what the Apollo was? EVERYONE knows.

He is a goner. Period. This is the most press that Kramer will ever face and for such a negative reason.

4th!!! like i said before….he meant that ish

look your all wrong about your order of posting give it up. Mooney was funny as usual, why didnt comedy central air or give him his own show.

^^^ LMAO!!! Wow, that made me laugh out loud for real. On catch a predator? Damn, that’s rough.

I like this video. Paul Mooney truly highlighted the proper way to tell a racist joke. Note, there was no yelling, no finger pointing, no historical references to tortuous acts, just a funny joke.

Richards’ career is over. What does he think apologizing to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton is going to do? That only shows just how out of touch he is when it comes to Black people. Like they’re our ambassadors or something, or they’re the head of the Black people, and since we all know each other, apologizing to them is like apologizing to all of us. I don’t want his damn apology. I agree with Mooney, I want to see him on the Apollo! And I want him to walk through the audience in order to get to the stage. And I want to see him get punched in the kidney.

I love Paul Mooney!

15th!!!! j/k it is impossible to keep numerical order

LOL@ punched in the kidney!!!
i don’t know if his career is completely over… i think ‘people like him’ could possibly bounce back, not with the Black community but with other Americans. Seems like the majority of America soon forgets when racist things happen.

Kramer wasn’t joking tho, he was mad and let out what he was trying to hide but how is it his lawyer or whatever has ties to the Black community? and even tho they do some good and bring some awareness to issues but I am bout tired of Jesse and Al showing up to everything…. the poster above is right, they aren’t the abassadors for Blacks as a whole. sometimes i think they have a need to be noticed… to be the HN’sIC

I’m not seeing the same outrage in mainstream media as with the Mel Gibson debacle, in fact I did not see it with Pris either….

..Paris…

Kramer, find a hobby and go away quietly. Some things you don’t ‘come back’ from. And this is one of those things.

However, if he wants to make some sizable donations to the NAACP, UNCF, CORE and the Urban League, go right ahead.

But still go away after you write them checks…

What happened with Paris?

SMH @ Kramer for thinking Al and Jesse are the Black representatives. If anything, they are the ones who would give him more of a hard time. If he wanted to take this stupid route of apologizing to the “token” black people, he should at least go to somebody neutral *ahem* like Condoleezza.

He don’t want it with Al “My perm is fiercer than yours” Sharpton!

there is no way in hell he could redeem himself. the bottom line is what paul mooney said, “he outted himself!” which basically means, he’s told his true feelings! so even if he apologizes, it’s not for how he feels, it’s for blurting it out! I could not work alongside someone with whom i knows feels that way about me. It’s going to take some special actors to be able to act with this dumb bastard after this fiasco! He’s a hateful mofo, and i could care less about him from this day forward. There’s nothing he can say to me to make me like him…at the least, i can stop hating him if he apologizes, but like him ever, NOT!

His greatest punishment is going to come from God though. There’s no way you can have God’s favor and have that much hate in your heart for a race of people that God himself created…and that goes for all the other secret prejudices bastards out there that are wondering why there ass are not successful. Yes, satan blesses his children (kramer) with a certain degree of success, but remember satan genuinely loves no one, so at some point he drops the ball on his own children. And when that happens, don’t expect God to come bail you out. Repentance and change in heart is the key, and if you’re not willing to do that, then you are just shit out of luck.

ive been waiting to get his take on the whole thing, and im glad that he came out and told his opinion

on my site i refuse to post anything about kkkramer, b/c it’s very upsetting and some many other sites are already giving mike richards some shine so i say forget it

also u cude look @ him on the seinfeld show and tell that he wasnt right…duh!!

For a second, I thought Mooney would defend him since he knew KKKramer for over 30 years, but he shut him down. I knew that because he was on Fox News, they would try and make excuses for him or whatever. I’m glad he mentioned that everyone knows the Apollo too. I wish I could see KKKramer perform there, so the Sandman can stomp all over his face.

child please… people always say Jews run the country but Mel talked about them and now he’s back out with a big time movie….which by the way looks good,i’ll probably see it. i mean, people aren’t gonna stop watching reruns of seinfeld on TBS just cuz ya boy went off.

Mel made his apology, sincere or not, he made it back so i think Kramer can too. right or wrong, he may be able to comeback.

Michael R can keep him fake mea culpas. WE dont want it. Like really, we black folks know that he really feels and that he’s not alone. Many whites feel just like that but arent caught on tape admitting to it. What did blacks ever do to him to garner such hatred? Come on. But hey, it’s really like thank you. Tell us how you really feel. I wish they’d do it more often and then we can say how the hell they get on our nerves half the time.

@ first time: michael richards’ career has long be over which is why he’s doing stand up. there’s no way he can come back

Don’t be so sure if his career is over. I know I am not. We live in White America.

i agree completly #4, Mooney did tell a racist joke but it was done in a tasteful yet proper way. it wasnt really offensive either, just pure comedy.

kramer on the other hand…. i’m not even feeling him at all. i dont care how many times he apologizes, i still feel that he is very racist and completly meant every word he said on that stage. it was degrading and very hateful, he knows that. he’s just sorry he got caught.

this will definitely hurt his career.

Paul Mooney- I salute U! Tooooo funny

There was a story yesterday saying that Richards allegedly said anti-Semitic insults to a Jewish woman at a comedy club a while back(Not sure it was the same one).

Nick fury said:

What happened with Paris?

_____________________________

Yes, what did Paris say…

#4(NIBBLET) - I don’t understand why you and Paul Mooney both couldn’t understand why the reporter had to explain to the viewing audience was the Apollo was. Actually, you’ll be amazed with how many non-blacks don’t know what the Apollo is. I was talking to some people at my college one day who are white about the Apollo…and none of them knew what the hell I was talking about. So I understand why she felt the need to explain it.

But I agree with Paul Mooney. The only way Kramer can redeem himself is by going to the Apollo and saying the same shit that he said at that comedy club that night…or he can adopt an African baby. But neither one of those options is gonna happen…so fuck Kramer and his apology. And Kramer is wasting his time with this damage control shit by trying to get in touch with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Kramer is smart, because he knew damn well those were the first 2 people who were gonna get in his ass. But I know Jesse and Al are not gonna accept his apology. They better not because Kramer meant everything he said at that comedy club.

ROFL @ Paul tell him to go to Apollo

she messed up the joke by explaining the Apollo…big dummy

Right on Paul Mooney
Somebody needs to give his props… He is so underrated!

@12…Sorry to contridict you: “Kramer, find a hobby and go away quietly. Some things you don’t ‘come back’ from. And this is one of those things.”….

Sadly, whites will eventually take him in claiming he’s “just crazy”…and apathetic blacks will go along (all the while remembering what he did).

kind.

Michael R is not done. America has a history of abusing US and WE forgive them. If his career does end, it will no be because of this incident, but because hes just not funny.

Paul Mooney, that was a funny a$$ joke!! BTW, hes not gay is he??

i don’t know…. many comics go back to stand up, not becuz their career is over but they have a joy for the stage and a live audience. you see that all the time…that’s a part of the reason i think he could possibly bounce back.. that and the fact that he’s a white man who has a ‘beloved’ character on TV. like i said a lot of American’s tend to forget what that person did when they want to.

@28…(yes I’m talking 2 myself)….
Least we not forget the Ted Danson/Whoopie Blackface incident as well as Mel Gibson’s Jewish banter. All forgiven in time.

ALSO:

I forgot to say How much I love Much I love Paul Mooney….=)

Greta explained the “Apollo” b/c she probably thought to herself, only educated whites watch my show and there’s a high porbability that they have no idea what this so-called Apollo place is. She ain’t slick. I’m glad Paul busted on her for that.

SEE NOW THAT WAS A FUNNY JOKE BASED ON RACE, NOT THAT SHIT MICHAEL RICHARDS WAS TRYING TO PULL, AND DON’T WORRY ANGEL, THIS CAN NEVER GET OLD, THESE ARE VERY IMPORTANT ISSUES, WE DON’T ONLY NEED TO HEAR ABOUT HOW MANY PARTIES STARS GO TO….THIS IS GOOD, KEEP IT UP.

Damage control Specialist> Wow i wonder what kind of credentials you have to have for this.. Paul Mooney is out of control lol @ not biteing his tongue.

I’m with Risa. WTF! I don’t know no mofo Jesse and Al!!

As far as coming back, what career does he have besides Seinfeld which is over? I never watched it so I pretty much stayed away from this situation. The only thing this means to me is not to talk to him if I ever see him somewhere which mostly I won’t cuz he don’t like us black folks.

he deserves not to have a career but we all know people don’t always get what they deserve.

Paul Mooney is a true comedian he’s funny when he not even trying to be funny. I love his attitude, lol. He was not playing with Greta, good for her ass.

lol PAUL MOONEY KILLS ME! that last joke was too funny

LMAO!! That last joke was funny! I like his delivery his voice is always so calm! HAHA!

I also agree with those of you who say his career is not over. The whites who are commenting on what he said in a negative way are mostly ashamed. But in their heart of hearts, they know that behind closed doors, many (if not most) of them think and/or say the same things.

Paul Mooney didn’t tell a “racist” joke. He told a RACIAL joke. Something can be “racial” as in “about or regarding race”, without being “racist” as in a system of oppression based upon a notion of racial superiority.

I love Paul Mooney. He is intelligent talented.

As to Richards/Kramer, I was only surprised that he totally lost control of himself PUBLICLY. I was not in the least surprised that he is a racist. This is an extremely race-conscious society and many people, some of them your friends, are racist.

It doesn’t matter how “classy” or educated they appear, racism is something that is taught and learned from childhood. I’m an attorney, you would think that co-workers with a doctorate in law would be too intelligent to be racist–but you would be wrong.

I wish that we as black people would live in reality and stop being shocked and appalled when white people show us things about themselves, that we should already know (if we are paying attention).

Oh well, another white male racist in the world, add him to the list and keep building up yourself and your people. Racism isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Especially since our way of dealing with it is to pretend it doesn’t exist, then feign surprise when it manifests. Teach your children the truth so they don’t find themselves unprepared for people who think just like Richards.

If I offended anyone with my somewhat “jaded” response. It was not intentional. Just my perspective. You are, of course, entitled to yours as well. Take care Peace and Love

He nearly destroyed me with that interview @Paul Mooney…

That joke at the end was hella funny and bold as phuck, LMBAO.

I would love for Mr Richards to try the wearing red in Watts at midnight myself.

well said chocolate peach!!! i totally agree. racism really isn’t going anywhere. it’ll be here til Jesus comes back ( i mean that figuratively and literally). i guess we shouldn’t have been surprised, can’t put it past anyone….

LOL@ myself for thinking “maybe if Kramer got Pres. Clinton to put in a good word most of us would forgive him”……now y’all know Clinton has a lot of Black folks’ respect.

I LOVE PAUL MOONEY HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH, IF RICHARDS WOULD HAVE SAID THAT SHIT AT THE APOLLO HIS WHITE JEWISH ASS WOULDN’T HAVE MADE IT OUT THERE ALIVE.

I loved mooney on the dave chap show

is he jewish??? so why the hell did he say the stuff about jews??? i just don’t get that.

@ChocolatePeach

What you said was on point. I am NEVER surprised to hear such hate…

@#40 I must agree with you. I had a close friend that was a racist and I’m not sure if she even realized it. She would call her niece a mulatto, when we would go shopping and go to the hair products section she would say things like don’t you need to be in the section for coarser hair, when mind you my hair is naturally curly. She assumed that the little girl that I was mentoring came from a bad family because I was her big sister. She is a correction officer and the majority of the inmates were minorities and she would talk about them as though they were animals instead of people. When I saw her highschool year book and saw not one black face I realized where all the ignorance came from but I had to let that friendship go. So yes racism is still very much alive.

jessejackson and al sharpton?they not black no more.why them?lol but really he just need to stop

Hey you guys, it’s not only our American brother and sisters who are mad. All my black friends and family over here in the UK are are well pissed. I was chatting to a mate in france and italy yesterday and they couldn’t believe what that fella Richards said.
He has offended every black man on this planet.

Richards if by any chance you are reading this you can

@kammy –that’s a shame…. was she white or was she black and just hated herself/ her race?

that’s really sad, and its even worse when it’s people who pretend to be real holy (”saved” christians, devout muslims, etc.) who know that everyone should be welcomed to the religion and you see them carry their religious book but in their hearts they harbor hate… i mean that for blacks white, whoever…. we can’t ignore racism and be upset for how we’re treated but it’s wrong to actually HATE another race.

You know what? I dont get tired of these types of POSTS because THIS is what is going on in 2006. These are TOPICS that TRULY need to be discussed, & WHITE FOLKS out there need to stumble across this WEBSITE (CONCRETE LOOP) once & awhile to READ what we have to say about these ISSUES & hear our VIEW POINTS!

So thanks to CL for keepoing on TOP of this TOPIC. It has stirred up CONTROVERSY, & OPENED PEOPLES EYES, WHO HAVE BEEN SLEEPING & LIVING IN DENIAL…HEY!—RACISM STILL EXISTS…BUT! IT WILL NOT BE EXCEPTED or TOLERATED under any circumstances–I dont care who the hell you are!

PAUL MOONEY…(God bless him) he has long been one of my favorite comedians, because he tells it like it is, always has–& what he tells jokes about is the TRUTH. What he said about this KRAMER dude is the TRUTH. Thank you PAUL MOONEY for speaking your mind on the ass hole.

Now! I enjoy the topics CL posts about BEYONCE all the time, & VIVICA FOX, EDDIE MURPHY (& the list of CELEBS go on & on) But I really enjoy a EYE-OPENING topic such as this one, more-so than the regular, CELEB POSTS.

Hey you guys, this story has hit the black population in the UK aswell. The brothers and sisters cant believe it. Richards can’t worm his way out of this the truth is out ain’t no apology going to redeem him. I’ve alredy spoken to black people from France, Italy,Spain that fella Richards has offended every black person on the planet, not just African Americans. God bless the internet!

Richards if by any chance you are reading this ‘YOU CAN KISS MY BLACK ASS’

*tickled*@Sohored

I heard that! Spoken like my g-ma would have said it back in the day….

Paul Mooney is the truth!!!

Ok..Paul Mooney is a nut, lol..He is right though. I’m glad he spoke on this situation.

LMAO…………PAUL LET HIS ASS HAVE IT!

r u guyz crazy or just brainwashed. Sharpton and Jackson are our reps. In case you didn’t notice during Katrina the white media fears Al Sharpton like no other black….he’s is always checking them. Jesse’s problem is that he fears the white media so they are able to portray him like he weak and an oppourtunist.

C’mon…they, along with members of the black caucus checked the media for the portrayal of us during katrina. You guyz have got to be kidding!!!! You had to see Sharpton on O’reilly show to know what I’m talking about. O’Reilly even cut the interview short cuz Sharpton points about the situation made O’reilly look stupid and racist. He’s one of the stronger ones that we have in our corner.

C’mon!!

#1 your CRAZY!! and he is done, NEXT!!

Sometimes I think we get too defensive. The word nigger holds too much power over our people. We go off the deep end when we hear that word and I think it’s time we get passed it. I go to my boys Barbershop and I hear the word all day, and I’m not offended. If a white person says it, there’s something wrong with him and I don’t need to have a baby over it.

Today, things are so politically correct about everything and it’s like were going backwards. Today, we couldn’t have shows like Sanford and Son, All In the Family or The Jeffersons because everything is so politically correct. If All In The Family happened today, there would be 100 different groups outside picketing.

I think Kramer needs some help because this has obviously been in him for awhile and he let the Cat out of the bag. Have Jason Alexander or Julia-Louis Dreyfuss said anything?

Also, some people are actually riding Greta for telling her audience where the Apollo is. Believe it or not Greta has audience members who don’t know aout the Appolo and it’s her job to tell them that information so they will understand what Mooney was saying. Reporters do this all the time. They say the Staple Center (In Los Angeles). Come on people stop, we don’t have to accuse every little thing of being rascist. Greta was right on this one.

lol at the whole damn thing

Mooney is a fool, “Sweetheart everybody knows the Apollo”. Yes they do.

Roll up roll up, get your kkkramer t-shirts!!! http://www.tshirthell.com...product.php?productid=809

You know Richard didn’t a segment called “Black Face”? Go here to watch it

http://rhymeswithsnitch.blogspot.com//

scroll down to watch a thing titled “Seinfied Racist Past.” I knew Jerry had to be just as racist as Richard, that explains him defending the idiot.

Paul Mooney kept the humor where it needs to be.

Angel - PLEASE remove the posting by SIR RONE

I personally don’t get tired of these posts. I think it is a very important issue to discuss. I just found out Monday night what a white girl whom I called a friend really thought. So I had to drop her ass like a bad habit. I wish I could have laid into her ass without getting arrested. Also its not just white folks that have those kind of thoughts there are some black folks walking around with the same hatred e.g my current roommate. She has a tendency to look down on blacks that are not middle or upper middle class and classify them as all the same like ghetto and uncouth and uneducated

kkkhazars

@ Polo Montana– i think there are some time when we have to stand up and let people know that $h!t ain’t cool. some people are gonna do things as long as you don’t step and str8ten them.

Paul Mooney is brillant. I don’t know who this Rubenstein is but Kramer is unredeemable. Period. I don’t care if he hires Ms. Winfrey herself. I don’t ever plan on watching Seinfield again.

#18 mel’s a star mike isnt!! he was a side-kik @ best, u know kkkramer was the kevin hubanks, to jerry seinfeld’s jay leno haha

#1 are u joking bout him being on to catch a pred??? im sorry buh thats kinda funny

i wouldn;t take it as far as not watching seinfeld becuz none of the rest of the cast did anything.

and if no one knows who rubenstein is there a good chance he doesn’t really have any pull in the black community so it may be a feeble attempt at damage control.

@ afro– yeah u may be right but what i’m tryna say is i don’t think this will necessarily be a career crusher. if jews do in fact run the country as people say then mel should have been shut out, cut off regardless but he wasn’t.

he sure did have a break down, he is lost it and he is over, he did cross the line. Thats the way he always felt in the first place before that.

Paul Mooney is hilarious. I think he has been blacklisted by the “mainstream” because of his independent streak. I just don’t see him working for some producers who will try to dictate what he says and how he says it. I’d love for HBO or something to pick him up because anything goes there and they have a reputation for letting you do what you do.
