You know I am pissed that they fired him today. I thought the suspension was message enough. I sincerly hope I am not offending anyone here.
Don Imus - Runs camp for trouble youths and disabled kids. Is primary funder of the Judy Center for Down syndrome and the Tomorrow Children Center for Cancer at the Joseph Stanzari childrens hosptial in NJ. Rude, crude and abnoxious but not a bad guy. Defender and philthropist of handicaped children.
Rev Al
First I am from upstate NY not far from where Rev Al ruined many lives. It was called the Tawana Brawley Case some you might actually have been too young to remember it so here is how it went.
Tawana Brawley was a African American girl who wrote racial slurs across her body through herself into a trash bin and claimed rape so her step father would not beat her for coming in late and having sex. She was about 14 or 15 at the time. Old enough to know better. She then falsely accused a State Prosecutor Steven Pagonas of raping her. She ruined his marriage his family, he lost his job and almost his life from the depression. Rev Al was yelling at how this man should spend the rest of his life in jail, had a special prosecutor appointed by the state all of his usual bull shit (sorry). All the while he knew it was a lie because she admitted it to him earlier on. So rather then take the high road he kept it up and made money off of it. He ruined a city and a town. God forbid you were white and went to motor vehicle you were taking your life into your hands after that.
Well they were "found out" a few years later and they were suied he amitted he lied and has not paid a dime back to the city or to Steven Pagonis for the judgment that he got against him and C Vernon Mason the lawyer for Brawley and Shaprton. He filed bankruptcy and said he could not pay. I am sure he pays a bundle for that doo of his.
No where was good Old Rev Al when those boys down south were wrongly accused by a african american woman, where was he when that prosecutor used that girl and and them to win an election. No where. Where was Good Old Al when IMUS said Mother Threasa a Saint or Bitch. No Where. He claims to want to stop the hate speech but on my block them good ol boys call each other N word all the ding dong day. What about the rappers calling their own women Hoe's. I say clean your house first. Sell your wife's 20K coat take your 1 Million dollar house and get your kids out of the private school you send them too. Make the right the wrong you committed when you ruined a life. And then I will listen.
Why is it OK to fire IMUS for that but when a Christian, Jew, Catholic, Homosexual, mentally disabled person is hurt and made fun of. This Jerk is no where to be found except in the hair salon.
I am sorry I am so angry right now. What IMUS did Was WRONG no doubt but no worse then what he did. I will fight for the ones that help our kids.
