Well, a good start would not be an #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& by calling us #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&s and elephant asses.... Oh and d-bags...
As far as the tweet, I didn't see it as I was working today. Heard the show was canceled on my ride home...

It wasn’t a stupid comment, it was a savagagly bigoted remark on a long string of offensive material. While I don’t like the reference there is a movie quote about not going full ******.

It was a stupid comment, Spence.
She should have had contractual clauses where she would get fined for saying stupid crap. And she should have been fined or doc'd a shows pay.
But she will be sacrificed at the alter of Wokeness and Disney can pat themselves on the back for how correct they are.

She has a history of offensive behavior. I’ve never watched the reboot but at least one plot line out of three seems to be patently offensive. Her last remarks are over the top. This isn’t stupid it’s bigotry and should be called out for what it it.
Curious why you’re defending it?

Yup.How else can you take it.

The reason I started this thread is because both "sides" will always find a way to argue over this.Right/wrong,left/right,up/down.
Maybe next time I'll think about my wording a little better.
But I still can't help but bait people into speaking what they really think.I had a great night fishing!
Jim in CT 05-30-2018, 04:50 AM Thy canned her show and her agency dropped her, she probably had that coming.
Not long ago, Hollywood gave a standing ovation to director Roman Polanski, who fled the US after being convicted of drugging and brutally raping a 13 year-old girl. He lives in Europe now, where as long as the girl you raped wasn't a prominent liberal, such behavior is tolerated.
Similarly, Joy Reid at MSNBC gets a pass for saying horrible things about gays.
Hollywood outrage over the desire to be nice to others, is quite selective. Which means it's fake.
scottw 05-30-2018, 05:01 AM I'm shocked that she said something offensive...who saw that coming????
I like the way basswipe sees something in the news, comes here and brings it up and explains why a liberal should be horrified by it, and then insults liberals to try to troll a response. Any return comments in his simple mind are supposed to imply that his deranged opinion is correct.
You want my opinion? I couldn’t care less.

Correct, I view it nothing more than a troll. He has done that numerous times. I guess he just lurks until he can't take it any more and then explodes.
What precipitated her tweet? Was she having an tweet argument with Jarrett or did it just come out of the blue? Kind of weird and it was ignorant but I can't see all the hubub about it.
Generally comedians get some leeway on these issues. Wanda Sykes (whom I love) was the first to say she was leaving the show but some of her material is worse - of course she is black so she gets a pass? What about someone like Andrew Dice Clay who was very popular maybe 30 years back - would a comedian like him get away with that nowadays? As a society are we too sensitive and take things way out of context?

For the reasons I defend a lot things Spence. As a society, we should not go through life KneeJerking at every misstep or stupid move made by someone. Particularly by the left, you are likely to be sacrificed to some social jury mob.
The comment was stupid, it was not racist, and she should have been penalized. But not had her head on a spike in an orgy of virtue signaling.

I'm sorry - I don't think every time someone is compared to a monkey, it is a racist statement. When someone does it to B or M Obama it tends to be close or go well over into racism.
VJ is of Persian heritage - all of you know that, right? You knew that before today, right? So is saying she is the offspring of a monkey is it to be looked through a lens as if she is black?

Freud would not kneeJERK a response like that, Eben. I would think you know me better than that.
JohnR 05-30-2018, 03:06 PM And a follow up - sometimes things are racist, some times they are not. I thought her comment was stupid, though not racist.
Not being a fan of Rosanne (or Jarret for that matter) I have already expended more effort on the subject than I had expected to spend.

Comedians all say offensive stuff. But when a Trump supporter says it then its across the line... Its ok to say Trumps mom mated with an orangutan and it is just good fun, but say it to an Iranian who may have as much African blood in her as Elizabeth Waren has Native American blood and Oh my god Rossanne is a racist and must be fired... For fuks sake guys... Open your eyes to the huge double standard.

Jim in CT 05-31-2018, 08:59 AM The only hypocrisy he is pointing out is his own. Our Name caller and Chief . Whom has he apologised to so far ?
No, I could fill the Pacific Ocean with the hypocrisy.
Roman Polanski is a famous director who was convicted in court of drugging and violently raping a child (I think a 13 year old), and he fled to Europe. Hollywood gave him a standing ovation not that long ago, long after we knew he was a child rapist.
So you tell me WDMSO, other than hypocrisy, why is a child rapist still embraced in Hollywood, but someone who calls people nasty names, isn't?
That's one example. I could go on all day. Look at the way they treated Sarah Palin, the things they said about her.
It's more acceptable to abuse conservatives, than it is to abuse liberals (and those sympathetic to liberalism). If Rosanne made fun of Sarah Sanders, there would have been zero outrage.
Jim in CT 05-31-2018, 09:03 AM It is almost like this is intentional to divide the USA .
It's a political calculation of the left. Splinter the nation into as many groups as possible, and hope you can cobble together enough of them, to equate to 51% of the voters on election day. It is absolutely deliberate. They can't win any other way, they can only win with conflict among those groups, they want groups of victims to be mad at upper middle class honkeys. They cannot resist the urge to fan the flames of divisiveness, they depend on it. Their political survival depends on it. They are getting clobbered all across the map, they are desperate, so this is what they came up with.
JohnR 05-31-2018, 10:12 AM If Rosanne made fun of Sarah Sanders, there would have been zero outrage.

Jim in CT 05-31-2018, 03:45 PM I can attest the outrage at Barr's racism is quite real.
It's not real, if the outrage doesn't exist when conservatives are similarly attacked. So no, you can not attest it's real. You can attest that it's loud and angry. It's not real unless it applies to everyone.
Can't have it both ways. If rap lyrics are nothing to get concerned over, neither is what Rosanne says.
