He makes a good point. Why should anyone have to tip toe around the larger racial context of the country when insulting a person? If someone is behaving like an animal, it doesn't stand to reason that calling them an animal is instantly a racial comment.
He went after her in the most offensive way possible.
If she was fat, he would have gone after that. If she was Jewish, would have gone after that. Any normal woman, go after her for being a woman. A man? He's either gay or fat or ugly or poor or a Muslim or Irish. He'll attack whatever opening he sees.
He was trying to be horribly offensive because he was enraged. Mission accomplished. It was horribly offensive. Some people laugh at that, others get mad.
People latched on to the result. yes, he called her savage because she was black. He was trying to dehumanize the shit out of her. Right or wrong that's how I read the situation.
Redban, however, I dunno what he's doing. Probably just making a point.
Aparently, you never watched comedy on the road, or evening at the improv, or comedy at club 54, or the dozens of other shithole standup shows at the end of the 80‘s boom, it was tired cliches, puffy mullets, and rolled up sleeves for days. Not one laugh though.
I despise cunts that make the creep shot argument. Fucking dick faces and the lack of police report means he's lying really. We are a really shitty society.
What what? People claiming he was taking creep shots make me mad and i also hate the "he didn't make a police report therefore he lied about what he was doing or being assaulted"

Redban and Tammy Pescatelli have been gold during this time. Good on them.

I always thought this guy was a sissy, but he's showed tremendous balls with this tweet.
3 rottengymshorts 2014-07-05
He doesn't have a boss. Maybe if you count Rogan but Rogan isn't a guy whose going to get upset at whoever defends Ant in this situation.

Their sponsors are kind of their bosses. And public perception could fuck you over even if you're totally self-employed.
5 LoganGV 2014-07-05
The top sponsor is a company Joe owns a piece of. They can always go back to selling fleshlights.

Who cares what Redban says/thinks? Maybe Joe Rogan does. No one else even knows who Redban is unless they're a Rogan podcast listener.

My first guess would be deathsquad fans, after that, anyone who enjoys honest reviews of gadgets and fleshlights.
1 onemancrimespree 2014-07-05
People who listen to Rogan's podcast who don't listen to O&A.

Good for him

I think we're being a bit dishonest here.
I'm probably more racist than Anthony, but there is no way he would have said "animal" and "savage" if she wasn't black.
You shouldn't need to twist the facts to accept Anthony. He did what he did, you either like him or you don't.
14 thenewloon 2014-07-05
I seem to remember Anthony referring to the Aurora colorado shooter as a savage

Redban is the least funny "comedian" that has ever existed. Stupid as shit too.

I suppose it's not out of the realm of possibility, but Rogan is a huge fan of Ant.
4 nguyen_ 2014-07-05
It's no secret he credits O&A for the idea of starting JRE.
3 RzK 2014-07-05
For once, something that makes sense from Redban. He's a little slow on JRE
note: I like Redban, just saying.
11 TheBoopants 2014-07-05
Because Joe shuts him down every time he talks.
4 xyniphis 2014-07-05
Also, high as fuck, and enjoys throwing an e brake on conversations
2 rsWhittington 2014-07-05
Because he is a dullard. You want to hear his take on things?
-1 just_plain_yogurt 2014-07-05
Rogan shuts him down because he typically adds NOTHING or worse...detracts from the conversation.
3 [deleted] 2014-07-05
I disOliveGardenagree that's buttshit.
0 just_plain_yogurt 2014-07-05
I don't know what that's supposed to mean. Is it some "inside" type of Redban "comedy"?
4 [deleted] 2014-07-05
it's a coded message and you will need the number 7 , 2 breadsticks and a certain picture of a dolphin to decode it.

Alllrighty then!
