What bothers me the most about this whole thing is this:

1. It's not illegal to be racist. It's not a good thing, but in a supposedly "free" country, we're supposed to be able to believe what we want. And although Imus' comments were unquestionably rude and ignorant, I'm not convinced that they're necessarily "racist." They were definitely sexist though.

2. It's not illegal to be offended. The first amendment does not protect ANYONE from being offended by what someone else says. Lord knows every time Al Sharpton speaks I'm offended. Does he even have a job from which I can insist he be fired????




The right to bare arms is not illegal either. The WalMart sells guns but not Snoop Dog.

As for Al Sharpton, I don't think you can fire a Reverend....if he even is a real one.




you did not answer my question

your argument about stern being on satellite is flawed

what about all the years he did the SAME stuff on free radio



What question are you referring you too? Chat Icon
There used to be bleeps on am/fm now its raw material.



i am talking about the skits that were offensive to women

you can't bleep everything

This whole Imus situation is really bothering me. What he said was wrong, absolutely, but he is an entertainer, and we have freedom of speech in the country... or so I thought!

I know this isnt the forum for it , that you are right!! But it makes me CRAZY that he gets away w/ things and Imus cant (although i do NOT agree w/ the things Imus said- it was MEAN!!)
