I have never known people that make their living telling jokes to bring laughter, being politically correct or afraid of offending anyone, until today.
If this crap keeps up, there will be no jokes toward Islam, blacks, women, gays... You will only be able to offend and make fun of straight white christian males. All else will be punishable by jail for "hate speech"
Dude give it a rest. She has a right exercise her free speech however she wants. However her boss has the right to terminate her employment if they feel what she says hurts their brand.
You are fine with the NFL disciplining players who don't stand for the flag (which I am too) because it offends you but Roseanne can do whatever she wants because racist black jokes don't offend you?
Looks like there is a black radio show host in L.A. that has a picture posted of Jarret and comparison to an ape. You may have to scroll down a little to see it...
You had best believe it. We have very clear rules about social media. If you are posting something that damages the company's image in some way - you are surely subject to censure and potentially getting fired. So I am really surprised that the "conservatives" on this site are taking Roseanne's side.
They are taking her side because they agree with her. If you've been on this site long enough and read enough vile posts you know that to be true.
In the age of Trump, the term "Conservative" has become synonymous with racism and hate speech.
What surprises me is that true conservatives sit back and let their ideology be hijacked by such hate, but they seem content to do so.
The right was howling for and gleeful at Kathy Griffin's departure. Her firing shows that there is a red line that applies to both left and right. Both Griffen and Barr crossed it

Meagan McCain on the view clearly and firmly stated -- THIS IS NOT A CONSERVATIVE thing. It isn't -- it just isn't.
Not all conservatives are sitting back.
Yes -- on social media and message boards, folks will defend anything in the name of conservatism but I don't believe that to represent ALL conservatives.
Roseanne is off her rocker. She always has been. We glossed over her well known outrageous behaviour and stories of how she made the set of the original Roseanne unbearable. I think folks had hoped she had grown up, gotten some medication or help. She hasn't.
While she apologized she then cam back and ranted even more -- retweeting fake news pictures and stories of other celebrities to try and drag them down. She's a mess.
Nobody can defend her.
ABC did not silence her -- she still has a voice and is using it.

Except Griffin retracted her apology and is making a comeback. As long as you hate Trump, all is forgiven apparently.
We know that gang members are criminals. The objection is tossing around words like "animals" to refer to people who are not white.
I don't see Trump referring to the Klan as "animals."
When I do, I will revisit my thoughts on this subject.
I think the reason might be that the Klan is a joke. The body count of MS-13 is quite relevant. Your entire mythology is merely a campaign tactic by leftist politicians in particular who are bankrupt on policy. Its the same think corrupt right wing nuts do with muh family values. caught stealing? Pass an anti Sodomy law and say a prayer. That is what you are doing leftist stye.
There is no significant Klan wave. There are no coordinated gangs of whites killing the "mud people". That's why the most damning evidence is typically some idiot saying racist bad things or leaving "racist notes" ,the latter of which tend to be hoaxes half the time. Sure you have racial tensions and bias but no more than other races.
For those who will miss the Roseanne show, just wait, I bet that Fox picks up her show...
yes, but without any of he costars or production staff. She can just stand before the camera and bemuse us by reading her racist tweets and inane stream of consciousness. Would probably be a big hit in certain demographics.
There’s nothing to pick up. The rest of the cast and crew members don’t want anything to do with her now. She burned whatever bridges she had left. She’s toast.
She tweeted that the show is done for good. I'm kinda surprised that Amazon Prime still has Rosanne available for streaming.
