During all of this, ( which I don't really care if Imus is fired or
not but do think that if it's all right for blacks to denigrate their
race, then theres no reason why anyone else should be restricted from
doing it) it did cause me to wonder if  calling Sharpton a straight
haired Ho, would cause any controversy. But then I thought probably
not, because it's an accurate description.

Then I thought that this whole thing with Imus is really only about
the fact that he called them Ho's. Because they do, in fact, have
nappy hair. I presume that had he called them nappy haired women or
wimps or whatever, he'd still have his job. So it was all about the
word ...... Ho. Which is a word made up by blacks refering black
women.

So then this whole thing is really kind of strange considering that it
all stems from what blacks have propagated or have allowed to be
propagated by people of the black race ( mostly the Rap music group)
about their own race. Which you don't hear much objection to from the
black community. But they object to a white person who makes an off
hand reference using their words and references that would have been
overlooked had it been said by a black person. I think thats called
bigotry and prejudice ..... isn't it?
