Dog the Bounty Hunter Gets Caught Saying the Word "Nigger"

So Dog The Bounty Hunter goes on a racist rant and A&E takes his show off the air, hoping that this dies down so they can bring the show back. Dog is now "healing" and looking to apologize to black leaders (by the way who voted Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson as co-presidents of the black race?)

Any of this just seem ridiculous?

Political correctness is one of the main things that makes me sick about America. We have free speech, yet when someone voices their views, however tasteless they may be people make a big fuss about it.

Someone should be complaining about taping the phone call and giving it to the Enquirer, whatever happened to privacy?

"Nigger" is just a word. If you are offended by the word that is your own fault. If you are not one you should not be offended. Besides, who really cares what an old man with a mullet and shells in his hair thinks anyway?

Would I ever say "nigger" to a black person? No I wouldn't, that would be disrespectful. Have I ever said the word? Of course, I'm sure I'm not the only one. I use "nigga" on a daily basis as a term of affection. Just like in Dog's case, whatever I say in private is my own business. Now if I say that to a black person I should be expecting a beat down in return, that's how it should be.

I just don't see how this whole Dog deal really matters. I also don't understand how A&E can remove their top rated show ONLY because of this fuss, when they fully plan to bring it back when the flames die down. Why not keep the show running? Get higher ratings. Because they are doing the right thing? No, because civil rights leaders will complain if they don't remove the show and cost them advertisers. It's not about what's right, it's about that money.

All Dog was pissed at was his son's girlfriend saying she would wear a wire to catch them saying the dreaded N-Word, just to pass along to the Enquirer. Dog was wrong thinking this would cost him his career. It will not. Hell, I wouldn't doubt this is all a publicity stunt anyway.
