In the end of it all, he got kicked off the show because of what he said. Right? That's the new-school way, right? Cause and effect.<BR/><BR/>But in order for him to get kicked off the air, view the "new-school way", Sharpton had to get involved.<BR/><BR/>It was only AFTER Sharpton got involved that Imus started feeling the heat. Why? Because Sharpton influenced people to boycott Imus. He told them to call the sponsors and advertisers on the show.<BR/><BR/>Only THEN did the radio station say "Imus, ya gotta go..."<BR/><BR/>Feel me? This is why I feel that each generation needs the other.<BR/><BR/>In short, I guess the best analogy would be that together, it's like a one-two punch.Ivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11660266149449276033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790021311115201711.post-66120770240452603032009-03-24T13:01:00.000-07:002009-03-24T13:01:00.000-07:00one will never have ground to stand on when they c...one will never have ground to stand on when they choose the petty path of correcting someones grammar and or spelling etc when they understand what they meant. that's just childish beyond baby steps... take a giant leap and actually address what's important, not whats sill or ironic. we already know it's silly and ironic, that's not even in question, lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790021311115201711.post-46117315641226576792009-03-24T12:56:00.000-07:002009-03-24T12:56:00.000-07:00i do know what you mean, side not, grammar queens ...i do know what you mean, side not, grammar queens and spelling queens are not impressive;)<BR/><BR/>but to the crux now, i can't continue to entertain your need for more input, sorry.<BR/><BR/>guns are to go to guy for settling war/disputes.. but that does not mean it's the right solution. etc..<BR/><BR/>way more people are disgusted with sharpton antics and want NO association or representation form him than are supportive or wanting/needing representation.<BR/><BR/>sharpton is a "race monger" that kinda approach used to fly, but it's grown old and digressed in it's maturity do to changing times. <BR/><BR/>there is not way that sharpton is someone "we" need on our team. all we need is truth, logic and reason, something sharpton and a lot of other taking heads just don't care about let alone represent. <BR/><BR/><BR/>glad you enjoy this as i have my moments of enjoyment too, but it gets way to petty and convoluted from the get go, i should understand that addressing such things is just as problematic as things i try to point out in the first place. i forget that being abrasive for most(not you anymore) is detrimental to having points hold up.<BR/><BR/>shit still happens because not everyone uses logic over emotion. we're all still human, ofcourse there will be attrocities, but that doesnt mean we're living in the 1920's or even 1970's for that matter. <BR/><BR/>the reason why things are still f'd up is possibly DUE to having people like jesse jackson and sharpton detrimentally represent people that a don't even agree with them and b live in a completely different world than them.<BR/><BR/><BR/>check this out,<BR/><BR/>bad things happens, race card injected(even if rightfully so) tensions get worse and moe problems occur,<BR/><BR/>oldschool way of dealing with things^<BR/><BR/>bad things happens, prosecution of wrong doers/accept that the system doesn't always work, grow from the problems and move on.<BR/><BR/>new school way of dealing with it^..<BR/><BR/><BR/>i know it can't be so minimalism but i also know that, "it aint about race no more" it's beyond that it's culture wars and classicism. the few morons that are still racist are just lost souls and shouldn't even be entertained with response. evolution dictates that those responsible for such things will eventually die out. IF that is the case then we are all closer to the death of racial ignorance then ever before. <BR/><BR/>:/<BR/>wow.. i give up though this is not the right platform, this shouldn't be so thoughtful. most people won't even read it let alone stifle thier knee jerk reactions to learn form it at all. not saying i'm right, i'm just saying the majority of us are on to something and it has nothing to do with race.<BR/><BR/>case rested-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790021311115201711.post-81033937531939364032009-03-24T12:19:00.000-07:002009-03-24T12:19:00.000-07:00We weren't going after you for your "spelling issu...We weren't going after you for your "spelling issues".

Jena 6... Sean Bell... Amadou Diallo... Votes disappearing in Florida... Shit still happens, man. And when they wanna make noise (i.e. create change), Sharpton is always the go-to-guy for issues concerning the African-American community. That's just the way it is. And until more prominent -- and effective -- leaders step up, it's gonna stay that way.<BR/><BR/>Sharpton can be usurped, but he can't be impeached.

Sharpton's point.<BR/><BR/>I'm not dickriding Sharpton or saying that he is superior to anything that this generation (my generation) has got to offer.
