Micheal “Kramer” Richards Apologizes for Calling Audience Member a Nigger
As we suspected, Michael Richards, popularly known as Kramer from Seinfeld, issued an apology yesterday for the racist rant he launched into during a comedy show gone wrong over the weekend. He appeared via satellite on The David Letterman Show to express his regret for the incident.
Whether the apology was sincere or just damage control after being caught out there, that’s for the public to decide.

i don't think richards should have apologized. one, b-cuz this is how he truly feels and two, this is the problem in american society. in its attempts at political correctness and "culturally inclusive" truth has been swept under the rug. i have always maintained that intergration was a mistake. u can not use moral suasion to appeal to people who are immoral. the reality is racism is a cancer which since the "civil rights movement" has been lying dormant, however still is very much exists, and as we see in incidents like this it re-surfaces. lastly, what i thought was quite interesting is that on one seemed to noticed the fact that none of the non-black audience members seemed to be offended by richards comments. so....it is what it is.

Michael Richards and his racist rant at the comedy show is mere evidence that racism is alive and well. Of course he apologized,however, he didn't apologize because he did not mean what he said, he apologized in an attempt to save his career. He meant every word that night at the comedy show other wise he would have not said it. It is evident that this is how Richards feels about people of color and, in my opinion, there is no way that he could clear that up.
