No, I think he just lost it because he was being heckled by two assholes and he said the first offensive thing that came into his head to shut them up. It was a "in the heat of the moment" type of reaction.

I thought it was hilarious. Blacks get too butthurt over the n word. Selectively butthurt. Ghostface Killah is allowed to use the N word all he likes but I'm not..

1. Why is this being brought up again? 2. I can't resist commenting. Richards (totally) lost his cool. They were distracting him, whether on purpose or not, and he lost it. They kept doing it, it kept gnawing away at him, and he flipped his shit. He was genuinely pissed off and thought he could be edgy (still trying to salvage the routine) and insult them at the same time. It did not work out well for him, but a single tirade doesn't make up an entire person's life. Is there any evidence of repeated racist behavior?
I vaguely remember hearing standup is not his forte. I think he was bombing and they pushed him over the edge.

Have you seen this? I think he said racist shit but I don't think he's an actual racist. He seem quite contrite.

Yeah, thats what I thought, but I wasn't sure if it was part of a joke. I don't think that kind of language is used by a person that isn't racist. I don't know about that.
South Park used the word n***** 42 times in a single episode (S11 E1) and was praised for doing so. The episode was called With Apologies to Jessie Jackson.

It has always been a standard thing that if a comedian is interrupted by an audience member--the comedian will target that audience member. Often ruthlessly. Maybe he could have been more eloquent--but the hecklers should have expected it.

This was his legendary outburst in a standup comedy show! Some people in the audience kept interrupting Michael Richards performance and then he began his outburst using racist slurs in the mix. Yeah, thats what I thought, but I wasn't sure if it was part of a joke. I don't think that kind of language is used by a person that isn't racist. Are you calling Ghostface Killah racist?
