Alec Baldwin’s goes on alleged racist rant against Post photographer - NYPOST.com


You libs have a lot of anger issues. Perhaps that is what makes a liberal- irrational anger.
Oh, Gadsen, not gadson. One of these.

Maybe some do. I don't pay attention to celebrities or what they do in general. I don't watch award shows or watch gossip TV shows, etc. I just don't care about that stuff.

Neither of these back up the claim he used the n-word.

Racism can only be applied to conservatives, not liberals, which demonstrates that "racist" now means, "anyone disagreeing with liberal policy" and has nothing to do with race.

I wonder what would have happened if Baldwin was a conservative?
My reaction would be the same.

I'm surprised about his behaviour here.

I've never liked hearing the N word from anyone, least of all from blacks. It's like they are demeaning themselves

Default Alec Baldwin and Racism!

I'm sure many of you have already seen this plastered on every news and entertainment show already but Alec Baldwin is at it again....this time by calling a photographer a N*gger! Yet, his wife is defending him saying he isnt racist.

What gives?

Can you call someone a derogatory slur and not be racist? The same thing happens with pretty much every minority group, blacks, latinos, gays, asians, women, etc.

Someone calls a black asian or latino a (insert slur), and they are automatically called "racist" (even though "latinos" are NOT a race).
Someone calls a gay a (insert slur), and they are automatically "homophobic".
Someone calls a woman a (insert slur), and they are called "sexist".

What irritates me, is that when members of any of those groups use a slur against each other, its laughed off and excused.

Can someone explain to me why this is so?
