Michael Richards tantrum

Ok whats all this about, well the comedian Michael Richards, had what I call a silly tantrum at a comedy gig, and called some people who said he was not funny, a Nigger. Nigger the old raciest slur that people used to call black people.

First of all it is not right at any time to call some black peeps niggers, I've never used the word towards some black people and I even don't like using the word 'black' to describe them, I really don't like all this race hate stuff, but is leaving behind all those mostly black people in Katrina last year not racism? And when some black people found some food they where called looters and whites "found" instead of loot?

The videos : The event, The CNN News

I've seen the video of the tantrum and a CNN news report of some guy who was said he was in the audience at the time, and there is some inconsistencies between them, the audience guy said that Richards shouted.
I don't care what you think, I've enough money to have you arrested, fuck you nigger.
and...
He said 50 years ago you would be hanging from upside down from a tree
Ok thats not 100% right Richards said, "50 years ago We'd have you upside down with a fucking fork up your ass" Humm almost as bad I guess. But he never said the part about having him arrested. My opinion is that Richards should not have used the nigger word it's something we can live without. But if the hecklers found the show boring instead of calling him not funny they should have just left. Richards had apologized for what he said but, both are to blame in my books.
