We need to get Mel Gibson and Michael Richards (Kramer of "Seinfeld" fame) together in a room full of Jews and black folks, and just let the cameras roll.
Richards, lately famous for his shockingly racist outburst at the Laugh Factory, doesn't get off the hook as far as I'm concerned. By all accounts, he wasn't drunk, high, or insane. He knew what he was saying, and he carried on for longer than a few seconds. Some people in the black community doubt the sincerity of Richards's apology. I do, too. This is hugely disappointing.
