Since it seems like every other thread these days has some racial overtone, I figured I'd join the party with this one. I saw what Hogan said and it's kinda bad....

While it is no doubt reprehensible that Hogan, a childhood hero of mine, holds those views about human beings the corporate backlash against people when these views are made public is really starting to concern me.
You don't think Vince McMahon has heard these sentiments and similar ones from Hogan in private? You don't think other NBA owners knew Fonald Sterling was a racist? You don't think all of Hollywood knew that Mel Gibson was an anti-semite?
If you are against bigotry you should be against it when it is private.
But then again, don't big ignorant racist, end of problem.

McMahon's a hypocrite. There's a Youtube video from when Booker T was a worker where McMahon drops the n-word and not with the "a" on the end but the "er."BoatShoes;1742407 wrote:While it is no doubt reprehensible that Hogan, a childhood hero of mine, holds those views about human beings the corporate backlash against people when these views are made public is really starting to concern me.

I am seeing the rant occurred on his sex tape. It should put it all in perspective.
He was taped having sex with his friend's (ex-friend now) wife, going on a racist rant about his daughter banging black guys.
Really should have just kept it in his pants that night.

I don't condone the words. However, I think it's complete BS that he's heard saying this due to a completely unrelated matter that has come to light in court. Imagine if hypothetically, we got taped footage of every conversation by every individual. Pretty much everyone would be guilty of the same thing he is.

He is just now figuring out that his daughter bangs black guys?? That show that he had years ago about his family made it pretty obvious that she likes em black!

When he sued Gawker he knew this stuff would come out. It's kind of the choice he had to make, because for the amount he was suing for they weren't going to roll over and die.Azubuike24;1742449 wrote:I don't condone the words.

Not really. Saying something on a scripted entertainment show, isn't the same as saying something in the comfort of your own home/friends home.BR1986FB;1742410 wrote:McMahon's a hypocrite.
