His last remarks,I agreed were completely out of line.I supported his firing.There current remarks, NOPE.This time he is stating a fact whether you like it or not!

I think it should be illegal to say anything racist. We need censors watching eveyone's lips. Freedom of speech does not extend to the right to offend others.

I hope you're being ironic... but if you're not.

Well, we'll start by tapping your phone and putting microphones in your living room to make sure. Then all police will be equipped with shotgun mics. Maybe on the first offense we sew the offenders lips together for a week. Bravo! Great idea. When someone gets upset let's take away Freedom of Speech.

How about we just not take offense to stupid people. The ironic part here is that in many religions, taking offense to something someone says is a sin, yet people are offended first and foremost when you say something about religion. Instead of arresting, patrolling, beating, defending, how about just smiling and walking away?

The difference is that Limbaugh, O'Reilly, and Beck are all opinion makers, and in my opinion much worse because of it. They are hate-mongers.
Imus is merely a shock jock and one of the first at that. How often has Howard Sterns had the same problem? The only difference between those two is that occasionally Imus talks about something other than strippers, midgets, and poop.

well, i think they are all shock jocks really. controvery is good for ratings. but i don't think limbaugh, o'reilly and beck are racists. they are anti-welfare, anti-secular, and anti-gangsta but i don't think that has anything to do with race...

Well and Al Sharpton was right there. Let me tell you something if you want to see racism, go march against these idiots. I did. In Chicago I marched against Jesse's Rainbow Coalition and they told me to leave, then it was go across the street and then it was They were calling the po-lice. I had a sign that said Mr. Jackson, I am a Hymie. My god forgives. What is wrong with yours? This was the second day of the march against Imus on McClure Plaza. Just one white Jewish woman was I, and this is how intimidating they tried to be, and everytime those church going black women got in a corner, they whispered "bitch". Probably by- products of Trinity

Blacks are the biggest anti semites the world over.

You are correct. His remarks were racist.. that being said, he was making a point. If you don't want the stereotype, don't act like the stereotype.

Telling people not to talk about it, doesn't change what actions occured.

Take a look at Pacman's arrest record. Guess he was just being picked on a bunch of times. He's a thug!!

Pacman's a thug and Imus is a goner.

Does Imus say what he means and mean what he says, if yes, why does he apologize?

The probable truth is, Imus doesn't care about anybody much,... but himself.

And just WHO is going to DECIDE what IS or IS NOT "offensive"?? YOU???? What YOU might consider offensive....I may NOT. Now you want to have people appointed as the "offensive police"?? Get real!! I think YOU are offensive and should be made "illegal".

BINGO! Absolutely true. This incredable blog with pics is proof !

Look at Imus's photo.
The sad part is that he's only twenty-three years old.
The happy part is that he's gonna write me a big old fat check with lots of zeroes at the end - again!

He looks as if he's spent the night out in a blizzard! Or is that icy look just the cold shoulder he's getting from everyone.

Speaking of 23, isnt his son about that age now? I remember seeing him on 20/20 or 48 hours some years ago - a 12 year old punk with an attitude bigger than his father's and a HUGE behavioral problem

I wish Imus would take a few of his millions and go after Sharpton.
Hire a few private eyes and put a spotlight on the real racist.
But I reckon Imus will bend over and slip Al & Jesssie a few thousands and they will go on blackmail someone else. They have been doing it for years.
Imus has the same rights to his thoughts and words as any Rap artist(?).
Imus for President...

Apparently Imus is a racist with Alzheimer's.

Who cares??? We should be worring about more things than this. Get a life people.

Dover you know exactly what I meant, but like I said, go to Oak Park and talk all that reckless racist shit... but you probably won't. So stay on your computer and hind behind your screen name :)

Okay why is this old fart on the air anyway????
Who sucked the air out of his face and put that stupid cowboy hat on him????

Don Imus probably wouldn't go down there and spout off either, but what do you think would happen if he did?

BTW, where is Oak Park?

In Sacramento, California. Where Dover lives. He knows all about that.

im not making anyone look like a saint I dont even like Don Imus I just know about him. and Im a defendant of free speech no matter what was said. NOBODY in the entertainment industry should ever be considered saint-like or perfect but at the same time people need to take a joke for what it is. if someone cant get a job or recieve service because of thier skin then thats a racism issue, if someone cant take a joke then they need to grow up.
