no don imus discussion?

yeah I guess my problem with the whole thing is that he didn't drop an "N" bomb, all he did was make comments about their hair, and them possibly being [censored] (loosely based on the fact that they have tattoo's I guess?). So apparently now, you can't make comments about anyone that is a minority. Somehow, because he used slang commonly used by african americans, that made it a racial slur...I don't quite understand.

I'd be more upset that the comment is just stupid in general, but it didn't strike me as particularly racist.
