Jerry Lewis used the word "fag" on his telethon. Uhm.
 
Now why in the fuck would you go and do a thing like that? Now I have to cancel my yearly contribution to them because the MDA didn't come out of the gates and immediately issue an apology.

I mean, a fleeting expletive by a comedian, not something I'd get overly upset about so long as he made it clear he wasn't being derogatory or nasty about it. But when there's nothing but silence while PR Consultants are busy behind the scenes finding a way to spin things, then I get pissy.

What a shame. The man's done a lot of good in his life and I've always had a lot of respect for him.......

Big Freaking Deal!

When the hell did everyone become so sensitive anyways.

CarlosTheGaucho 09-04-2007 01:45 PM

Man, when the guy was raised it belonged to the good manners to shoot on the fags with a shotgun !





lol






(it's a black humour!)

I think everyone on here knows I'm not at all sensitive about gay humor, I think I do a pretty good job ridiculing gay homosexuals myself as a matter of fact.

The problem is having celebrities use such language, especially at a time when gay rights are such a huge issue on the political stage.

Having public figures using remarks like that makes it "OK" in the minds of the masses, and can help to perpetuate bigotry.

GLAAD is all over him now, it's going to get bad unless some serious damage control is done and done quickly:

http://www.glaad.org/media/release_detail.php?id=4049

This could EASILY lead to television stations refusing to carry the telethon next year, and I'd hate to see that happen.

He needs to make things right.

SifuE 09-04-2007 01:47 PM

BFD So what FAG..lol

CurrentlySober 09-04-2007 01:49 PM

Perhaps he fancied a cigarette?

RawAlex 09-04-2007 01:49 PM

So Boy Alley, you are somehow suggesting that the hahahahahaha deserve more respect because they shoot first?

Those people need to take a trip to england, where a pack of fags is something you smoke and not the makings of a gay paysite.

Tom_PM 09-04-2007 01:49 PM

I remember when I was in school as a kid the bulli'es would call EVERYONE a fag. I guess I grew up when it was the same as "pussy" rather than "you are gay and thats evil" or whatever it's supposed to mean these days.

He seemed to back right off it, poking fun at someone or whatever he was doing. As usual in the media, they only played the clip up until he said the word, then cut back to the anchor who acted like it was hitler speaking or something ,lol. Really worthy of a national scandal status?

RoCkMaN 09-04-2007 01:50 PM

I still fail to comprehend the direction society has headed in.
Celebrity kills a person = he will be forgiven
Celebrity Rapes = he will be forgiven
Celebrity kills dogs = he will be crucified
Celebrity says "fag" = he will be persecuted

You're totally wrong here, it IS ok in the mind of the masses they just KNOW it's such a HUGE ISSUE !





lol

KimJI 09-04-2007 01:53 PM

Fags/homos should apologize for wasting good healthy heterosexuals time, by putting this on the news instead of actual important news

Black humor? Your name is "Carlos" and you're from Prague? I didn't know there were black people named Carlos that live in Prague?

BoyAlley 09-04-2007 01:56 PM

There. This is all that he needed to do, as far as I'm concerned, and he did it:

Quote:

"I apologize to anyone who was offended," Lewis said. "I obviously made a bad choice of words. Everyone who knows me understands that I hold no prejudices in this regard. In the family atmosphere of the telethon, I forget that not everyone knows me that well."

"That something like this would distract from the true purpose of the telethon pains me deeply," he continued. "The success of the show and all the good that will come from it shouldn't be lost because of one unfortunate word. I accept responsibility for what I said. There are no excuses. I am sorry."

Well, after watching the clip, it LOOKED like he realized what he said RIGHT as he said it and knew it wasn't appropriate. To me, that's forgivable. I'm not aware of anyone who hasn't made a slip before.

Now, had he ranted on the subject ala Michael Richards or gotten a laugh and continued on, then he'd have some explaining to do.

Had he dropped the N word however, I have NO doubt that Al Sharpton would have been all over it within hours. Unfortunately, people of his ilk don't realize that while their intentions may be good, they're actually creating further animosity amongst different races.

All imho. :2 cents:

I'm not trying to date you, I just didn't realize that spics were sneaking across the border in Prague too. Awful.
:Oh crap

Flynn 09-04-2007 02:01 PM

hahaha. Those god damn illiterate fags!

KimJI 09-04-2007 02:05 PM

I know you want Fags to be the new "Jews" or "blacks" But it will never happen. Fags are a a social and biological disease. And the more you scratch it, the more it will itch

You would actually be happy in Prague, there is so many metrosexuals lately it's a total Douchebag alert!

This is the real deal here!!! A waste of time reporting this when there are much bigger things(not dicks alley boy) to report on!!!

Fap 09-04-2007 02:27 PM

mistergardener 09-04-2007 02:32 PM

So what?

DateDoc 09-04-2007 02:32 PM

I am so sick of fags saying we all have to be politically correct! You also have the same rights as everyone else. What you want is special treatment. If you do not like the laws of the country you live in move. It is that simple.

CarlosTheGaucho 09-04-2007 02:34 PM

Well not willing to criticize the land of my dear brothers but it's something a bit typically American, you treat someone like a shit and then once it's not allowed anymore you start the incredible positive discrimination and correct manners, it's kind of ridiculous in a way.

bandwagon 09-04-2007 02:36 PM

Look at the "gay" being upset about being called a fag. Hope all the "breeders" arent offended.

Gay bandwagon is pulling out feel free to jump on me at anytime you feel is appropriate.

fris 09-04-2007 02:37 PM

faggots wanting special treatment

CarlosTheGaucho 09-04-2007 02:41 PM

it's nothing connected with the fact you're a fag man, personality goes a long way, but you seem to be the one misunderstanding the system most - it's a damn comedy! :2 cents:

esnem 09-04-2007 02:53 PM

i find it funny that the majority of the people attacking gays are closet homosexuals themselves. they talk about things being 'gay' just as much as gay people i think.

there was a comment bill maher made on his show over the weekend, it was about 'gay urges' and how crusaders against gay rights speak of these evil 'gay urges' that are everywhere in our society. i don't know what they're talking about.

know who has gay urges? gay people. know who has straight urges? straight people.

i know this isn't really on topic with the thread, but the amount of attacks on gay rights from people who are gay themselves is astonishing.

Klen 09-04-2007 03:54 PM

Fucking faggots it is all their fault.

Fletch XXX 09-04-2007 03:55 PM

with the amount of sausage on this board, there will always be a certain percentage of "closet" dwellers amongst us.

_Richard_ 09-04-2007 04:05 PM

sounded like a joke gone bad

considering what he was doing.. and the fact he was doing it for 18 hours straight

i would say grow the fuck up
