Train Wrecks
Kramer Rant Boosts DVD Sales

SeinfeldIt seems that there really is no such thing as bad press -- even press generated by racist tirades.

Sales of season seven of "Seinfeld" are up 75% over season six and 90% over season five -- after one week of sales, according to website DVD Empire. Meanwhile, DeepDiscountDVD.com reports a staggering 178% increase over season six. Sales are up despite Jesse Jackson calling for a boycott.

Seasons five and six were released on the same day last year. TMZ's video of Michael Richards' hideous harangue was first seen on November 20 -- one day before season seven was released. Richards went on "The Late Show with David Letterman" that same night to apologize.

To paraphrase Seinfeld ... is there anything wrong with that?

"Yeah. God knows no white males have died of AIDS. Especially not thousands of them. Read a book much?"

Perhaps you should read what I wrote before replying. I said dying by the thousands EVERY DAY this minute as we speak.. Kapish? White males in America never believed the cure was to rape babies or virgins. So who are the cavemen again?

94. 96. "how did she get billions? Because the white "bitches" love her. Yeah, you're real smart too...."

Your point is? white "bitches" love her. AND she gives 287 cars ( worth almost 30 thousand a piece) to them "white bitches" yet Africa is still dying of AIDS.

Did any of those "bitches" do anything to deserve them - or anything worthwhile with those cars? But Oprah deserves to get ragged on for making them happy for supporting her career for over 15 years? And Oprah supposed to cure AIDS in Africa? FIRST of all, she is an activist. Go Google it. Secondly, if all it takes is giving back money to your own, why hasn't Bill Gates cured AIDS in America?

Yeah. Real smart.

And I'm spent. Moving on....

96. Poppa Civilize- the MEDIA puts a dark cloud over Africa? Please explain to me why EVERY COUNTRY RULED BY BLACKS IS IN A STATE OF CHAOS? STARVATION, NO HOMES, WATER, MEDICAL CARE, TRIBAL WARS, ETC, ETC... You should thank God every day that your black ass is here in this white-ruled country. Without whites blacks are lost. Read the Bell Curve. You seem to have alot of time on your hands.

97. Kiki, the Jane of Tarzan, I explained to you why that's going on in Black countries........genocide. But you're disease is denial, thats what make you superior. Thats part of the rule, DENY and LIE. F*** Bell Curve, my kid AND I read it. While Cavepeople have their 1 handbook, I'll give you a at least 100 that every other race have on whites. LoL, go put your clit tickler on, cause I'm sure your closet freak husband is on craigslist somewhere prostituting with the a transvestite dying to get that strap on up the ass. Now I SAID nighty night.

No war, Peace. Just peace with the truth for a change.....savages.

98. hey loves pizza:
70% of inmates for violent crimes against children in the US are white males.
http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/cvvoatvx.pdf

to further confirm you blissful ignorance: Oprah is doing countless acts of humanitarism in Africa...even receiving the Bob Hop Humanitarian Award...what have you done to help anyone in this world - Besides helping your kind perpetuate lies and illogical rants that is. The stupidity of your postings are blatant misreprensentations at best.

as for other posters using racial epithets...more power to you. Obviously your limited mental capacities prevents you from coming up with any thing else when trying to make a point and obviously it makes you feel better in your demented minds to hurl , what you consider to be insults...but it makes you come across as emotionally unstable and inferior - evidently an accurate reflection of your lack of intellect. Good job!

@ Poppa

You spewed:

"Black women manage to survive without the meds despite their sons being incarserated, their nephews being shot 50 times by police and their fathers missing in weather controlled hurricanes..."

~~~~~


Are you a raving lunatic to suggect that Hurricain Katrina was "weather controlled"? I'm almost pissing my pants I'm laughing so freaking hard. Jesus Christ BLAME EVERYTHING on whitie. OMFG


Rant on Poppa make all the excuses you want not a single black celeb makes the Forbes top 10 for donations to charity. And I doubt that 100 black celebs could beat Bill Gate's 100 million donations to fight AIDS.

http://english.people.com.cn/english/200106/20/eng20010620_73041.html


So why is it that no matter how much the white man tries to help, only the Kramer's of the world are focused on? Why not focus on The Gates, Bono, Spielbergs, etc?

100. " if all it takes is giving back money to your own, why hasn't Bill Gates cured AIDS in America?"

Bill Gates has donated OVER 31.9 THATS 31.9 BILLION dollars to charity. Much of it going to AIDS research here and abroad. FYI if you want to believe it or not I volunteer for a homeless shelter.

http://www.gatesfoundation.org/default.htm

Number 108 How about stats that are not 11 years old? I've skewed nothing. My origional comment on Oprah was in respose to an a**hole that made a nasty comment about her and white people. SO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.

102. Why boycott seinfeld?? Jerry seinfeld had nothing to do with this rant, he does'nt represent michael richards. Seinfeld and richards worked together on a show that is it! Jesse jackson should have left jerry seinfeld out of this, if you want damages, go after richards personally, he's the one who f****d up!!

104. "if all it takes is giving back money to your own, why hasn't Bill Gates cured AIDS in America?"

Bill Gates has donated OVER 31.9 THATS 31.9 BILLION dollars to charity. Much of it going to AIDS research here and abroad.

And that's great - but yet you say AIDS is still rampant in Africa, and it is still rampant here. If all it takes is money, WHY HASN'T HE CURED IT? Answer the question. (But it's Oprah's responsibility to cure it in Africa, according to you....)

"You should thank God every day that your black ass is here in this white-ruled country. Without whites blacks are lost."

Oh please. Not with people like you running around.

And then...

"FYI if you want to believe it or not I volunteer for a homeless shelter."

First of all, it's SCARY that someone like you considers themselves compassionate. Do you crack "How's a pizza better than a Black man?" jokes and spit in their faces as you're doing service? Or is it just homeless white people (down on their luck due to affirmative action, I'm sure) you seek to help? Scary.

"So why is it that no matter how much the white man tries to help, only the Kramer's of the world are focused on? Why not focus on The Gates, Bono, Spielbergs, etc?"

Why is it that you can only focus on the negative stereotypes of Blacks, even though they are only one part of our community, just like trailer trash is only one part of yours? (Does that make you an 'a**hole' like whomever it was you referred to? I've never seen someone so confused...)

Give me a break. You bigots are paper-thin....but fun to chop up, nonetheless...

105. "But it's Oprah's responsibility to cure it in Africa, according to you."

You kow I really hate dishonest posters, I NEVER said Oprah should cure AIDS. please find where I said that ..then hurry up and get back here with the quote.

As for the rest of you post it's nonsense since you can't even be honest in quoting me.

Perhaps YOU should go back to where I originally replied to the a**hole calling white people cavemen... and see where this started.

As for the PIZZA thing I DID NOT write that sh*t!

SOME A**HOLE used my name to write it the same way I can use yours...Here I'll show you in my next post. I assume it was the same a**hole who did it in the first Kramer thread. Also THE other posts he/she made in this thread have been deleted by admin for vulgarity---I reported them and that STUPID wanna be joke! Which has yet to be removed.
