Poll question: Next stop for Michael Richards?
Edited on Thu Nov-23-06 04:03 PM by Jim Sagle
Several years ago while visiting downtown Milwaukee, I saw a crazy guy (similar to the crazy guy in the A-Team) wandering down the street with a glazed expression on his face and a large screwdriver in his hand. Is that in Michael Richards' future? Or will his non-career careen down a different path?

1. He's got enough money that he doesn't have to work anymore.
I say he just disappears into obscurity.

2. When enough of these racist semi-celebs have shucked off
their veneer of tolerance, they'll probably start their own network, RET. I can only imagine the programming. "Jud Suss" will probably be a staple, along with the racio-comedic stylings of Michael Richards.

14. Darn, you and my sister beat me to this
My sister thinks I should do a second comic strip attack on Richards. The first one is on General Discussion. Sis said I should have Jon Stewart offer that "Michael Richards now has a golden career future ahead of him on the white supremacist comedy circuit; he can now open for the Gaede Twins."

Alas, you darned quick-thinking DUers beat me to the doggone punch. Note to self: stay ahead of your audience...

6. Michael Richards
what he said was bad but the black comics and guys like Mensena can say
anything they want about blacks and whites without any incriminations its
a double standard

7. not quite the double standard you say...
Kramer went off his rocker - he made it personal, not business.
That is what the difference is in comparing him to other comics that may go over some lines.

8. He will get through it
The more the heckelers go to the media and say they want money, the better it is for Michael Richards, he will work again.

13. I don't trust that source at all.
And I don't buy the anti-Mason line in general. Here's why:

The American Mercury Newspaper, 1941
"Nazis and Fascists are engaged
in a ruthless campaign aiming at
The Annihilation of Freemasonry"

Sven G. Lunden

There is only one group of men whom the Nazis and the Fascists hate more than the Jews. They are the Freemasons. In Italy, indeed, the anti-Jewish feeling is of recent vintage and largely artificial, whereas the blackshirt hatred of Freemasonry is old and deep. In their own countries Hitler and Mussolini Inaugurated their respective reigns with outrages against Masons and Masonic institutions, and they have never relaxed the systematic persecution. Now Nazi conquests of other European nations -- whether by invasion of forcible "persuasion" -- are followed automatically by hostile measures against Freemasons. From Norway to the Balkans, the progress of the Swastika has brought outlawry, and often vandalism and death in its wake for all Masons. The anti-Semitic excesses have been widely reported, the anti-Catholic outrages have had considerable publicity, but the merciless totalitarian assaults on Freemasonry have not receive a tithe of the world-wide attention they richly merit. They are practically an unknown chapter.

Nazi and Fascist publications leave no doubt of their belief that all evil in the world, from the high mortality rate among the dinner guests of the Borgias down to the Versailles Treaty, has been the work of Freemasons, alone or with the help of Israel. In "Mien Kampf", Hitler merges his twin phobias:

"The general pacifistic paralyzation of the national instinct of self-preservation, introduced into the circles of the so-called `intelligentsia' by Freemasonry, is transmitted to the great masses, but above all to the bourgeoisie, by the activity of the great press, which today is always Jewish."

And one of the first official statements made by Hermann Goering in his capacity as Prime Minister of Prussia, when the Nazis took over power in 1933, was that "in National Socialist Germany there is no place for Freemasonry.: That view was not news. It had run through all the Nazi propaganda and had been an intrinsic part of the Fascist attitude in Mussolini's realm.
