Michael Richards Apologizes For Racist Outburst

In case you missed it, Michael Richards (better known as Kramer) apologized on national television last night for his racist tirade at the Laugh Factory last week.

It seems like he's on an acid trip but the apology nonetheless sounds genuine.

Still, forgivable? You decide.

what a fuckign chump. fucking drug addicted, racist looser if you ask me, and i liked the guy 3 days ago.

Sounds like a sincere apology with no bullshit excuses. He clearly doesn't believe what he did was right, and he doesn't blame anyone but himself. I'm gonna give the guy a brake.

Is there any history out there on him regarding racism? The guy has been in the biz since Fridays in the 80s. Surely there has got to be some testimonial about this from costars.

Its certainly not the first time the "N" word has been used at The Laugh Factory. Who gives a shit what color the speaker's skin was? I don't support double standards, so if black comics can use it, then white ones can too...


michael richards perfomed at the laugh factory..yada yada yada..he's banned.
