Funny racist comment by Lon Mcheron
 
I am watching the 2004 U.S. poker tournemant on ESPN and Lon makes a comment after a hand goes down between a man in a white hat and another in a man wearing a non black hat. He says "man in the white hat beats the man in the black hat, as it should be!"


WTF?? The guy wasn't even wearing a black hat. How did this make this past editing and on to the air?

If the other guy wasn't wearing a black hat, then it was a retarded comment, but still not racist. "White hat vs. black hat" is a recurring motif in old Westerns, with the good guys wearing white and the bad guys wearing black. Doesn't have anything to do with palefaces beating on negroes.

I'm to young to have seen any of the old time westerns.

It's good to recognize ones limitation. btw, 'black hat vs. white hat' is ROOTED in westerns, but it's a very common and non-racist modern terminology.

This is disturbing and surprising news. Lon has always been known for his extremely niggardly use of offensive terms.

He definitely didn't think it was a racist comment because he used the word accurately in his sentence. He wouldn't have been able to do that if he didn't know its definition and thought it was a racist term. Same for the poster that used "niggler".

I can't believe I'm still replying to this...

The fact that he used the word correctly doesn't mean anything. People that think niggardly is a racist term, still know what the word means. They just think it derives from the racist word [censored], and is based on the racist idea that black people are inherently cheap and poor.

That would be why I thought he was making a bad pun on the word. If he knew the word wasn't racist, the joke is even dumber.

It's his apt usage of a seldom used word, that is often miscontrued as racist, while referring to a comment that someone has miscontrued as racist, that signals to us so clearly his intentions.

My, I didn't realize my innocent remark would spook some people so much. I think it's time to nip this thing in the bud; to put a finger in the dyke if you will. I certainly don't wish anyone's view of me to be colored by any tint of impropriety. Hopefully I can start over anew, all spick-and-span.

Do you, by any chance, recall the bruhaha in the DC City Council ten years ago over the use of this word?

It was ultimately decided that the guy in question (Clarke?) was "insensitive" for his use of the word.

Huh?
