I actually just graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I also have 4 technical certificates, so I am far from uneducated. I just have morals.
@ thecash Lets see. Rosie lost her day time talk show. She was fired from her current ensemble talk show. She has lost pretty much all credibility both with the gay community and entreatment industry. She is pretty much unemployed and unemployable. Noooooo she is not held accountable for anything she has said or done.
This is f**king stupid. There can be pride festivals all over the world where people shout "we're gay and not going away" or "we're here and we're queer". Why do they get that freedom of speech, but someone who isn't gay uses it as a derogatory term and he gets fired from a job? Isn't that an infringement on his rights? So what if he called someone who was gay a 'foggot'? I don't agree with what he said, but guess what, everyone has the same freedom of speech. You CAN NOT take away the right for people to be assh**es. If hes anti-gay he has every f**king right in the world to be that. He shouldn't have to go to counseling. He shouldn't have to apologize. He sure as f**k shouldn't be fired from his job. He should however be able to sue the f**k out of the network for discriminating against his right to freedom of speech. There is no amendment that protects people from getting offended, there is an amendment that protects freedom of speech, so as a closing statement I'd like to say, "go f**k yourself all you politically correct f**k nuts, I hate you and I hope you die from a sever case of being offended." The End.
Note to Isaiah Washington: Political Correctness gives with one hand, and takes away with the other. You're only pissed because sexual minority groups groups have climbed atop ethnic minority groups on the PC totem pole.
Isaiah Washington's interview with Larry King in which he attempted to rationale the gay slur he used was pathetic. Not only did his story make no sense, it still didn't explain what the other F word slipped off his lips so easily, first during the original incident and for a second time on national TV at the Golden Globe awards. His story made no sense whatsoever and usually when sometime makes no sense, it's because it's not true. What he failed to get through all this was that if it's not right for Don Imus to call the Rutger's women's basketball team the derogatory phrase he used, it's not all right for Isaiah Washington to use a derogatory term for gay people, not in private and certainly not on the air. Let's hope this bigot does not get hired on another series too soon.
