His apology was so fake. It's not like he let it slip once during a set and then quickly apologized. He screamed nigger in rage over and over. Kramer doesn't like black people, plain and simple.
"What's the deal with black people at stand-up comedy shows...?
It's like 'Fifty years ago, we'd have had you upside-down with a fuckin' fork up your ass'."
Everyone was so mad at Richards after that, but am I the only one who genuinely thought that was his funniest work? Kramer Schramer, that Nigger rant was his definding career moment!
Yes, you are the only one, because it wasn't even a rant. It was a phoney actor not being able to hide his shitty timing and resorting to racism because of people talking at a table. No ranting at all, just a white dude shouting "nigger" on stage and repeating himself. The best thing to come out of this whole ordeal is that it inspired Matt Stone and Trey Parker to write one of their best episodes of South Park.
Other than that, I see it as the beginning of the slow death for Comedy. Now every has been celebrity thinks that hiring a few ghost writers and doing career insignias at the end of the show qualifies them to speak about why they love "the artform"....fuck racist hack Michael Richards.
phones with cameras are the real killer of comedy. Dave Chappelle had a great point when he said that it used to be just talking to people in the room, now you are literally talking to the entire world.
I'm serious, that videos filled with hilarious one-liners. "Thats what happens when ya interrupt the white man!" "Hey... thats how YOU PEOPLE like to get back at THE MAN", "Cracka ass? U callin' me Cracka ass NiggA?????" and of course the whole fork in the ass line. CLASSIC!

A lot of Anthony Cumias do talk loudly at movies and shows. It's hard not to side with Kramer on this one

That nigger just needed to learn to keep his mouth shut when someone of superior race is talking on stage.

if Kramer's white then so is Anthony

So, you don't think this was a minor flub?
n/a Bluesmoky 2017-06-10
He seemed very reasonable and provided an open forum for a constructive race discussion. Typical overreaction IMHO.

All that's missing from the ending of the video

Kramer bursts in Jerrys aparment with a panicked look on his face.
Cue laughter.
"What happened this time Kramer?"
"You know how I have been trying to be a comedian?"
"Yeah"
"Jerry I got on stage and...this guy..he just wouldnt shut up."
"You got heckled?"
"Thats not all Jerry."
"No?"
"Jerry I called him a nigger."
cue intro with Seinfeld doing a bit about curse words

What's with all the "Kramer Set" posts lately, did I miss something?
