WATCH FROM YOUR PHONE - HERE
Lots of people are outraged after hearing this derogatory racial comment. Will an apology even suffice?
Rapper 50 cent gave his 2 cents, as to why Republican congressman Doug Lamborn should be fired!
“Republican congressman Doug Lamborn should be relieved of his duties after calling president Obama a tar baby. Tar baby is a synonym for n*gger, except it is only used in bigoted manners, were as n*gga can be a sign of respect. The term comes from a children’s story in witch they explain that slaves were”dark and dumb”due to the fact they were” baptized in TAR” #SK. I can’t find a more disrespectful or ignorant way to describe the race or depiction of our president”In Wikipedia "Tar Baby" is described as:
'In modern usage according to Random House, "tar baby" refers to any "sticky situation" that is only aggravated by additional contact."But most say, when you are refering to an actual person as a "tar baby" it is a very derogatory racial term.
When you have NBA ball players and Celebrities getting fined for saying gay slurs then should congressman get fined and/ or fired for racial slurs....against our President?
Weigh in...
