Joan Rivers Drops the N-Word
Breitbart ^ | July 6, 2014 | Staff

Posted on 07/06/2014 6:33:49 PM PDT by Rufus2007

(Offensive Language Warning) Sunday on HuffPost Live, comedian Joan Rivers and host Marc Lamont Hill were discussing the country getting too politically correct in our race descriptions when the 81-year old said the "n-word" and then attempted to balance it out by racially with a Jewish insult, who is Jewish.

Lamont Hill looked stunned by Rivers using the word and balked when Rivers said "get over it." Lamont Hill shot back, "It's tough though," and moved on to the views questions segment.

Joan Rivers is a comic.. she makes fun of people.. she always has and always will.. too bad our society no longer allows this.

She has completely lost her mind.

She has insulted everyone who has interviewed her (or walked off the set in a tizzy) for her new book.

Uh...can I have an interpreter?

I don’t even know what that means.

Black people shouldn't be saying naggers either. I think they give permission for David Duke and other racists to say it if they freely use the word.

I don't think Joan Rivers is so Liberal (except for the homosexual nonsense). I think she is a Republican.

Didn't she say f... the Muslims (read without the ellipses) onetime?

She’s also old enough and rich that she doesn’t have to give a damn. If she were absolutely cut off from all sources media income, she could still live out her life in the style she’s become accustomed to. She’s untouchable in that sense and that is why she is not attacked, she can’t really be hurt.

What's the use of having f-you money if you don't actually say the words, more or less, now and again? Especially if you're 81!(!!) Hit 'em where it hurts! Laugh at the responses!

Another domestic terrorist who has a professorship. Can you imagine being a college class with someone this dumb teaching?

The subject he teaches is Hip-Hop Music. Really!

It’s so weird that in America one word can be, for all intents and purposes, illegal. It might not sound nice, but a lot of words don’t sound nice. People have a right to say anything. Disgusting that political correctness is forcing everyone to worship the blackness of people.

...so is that other POS that I see on Fox News a lot, Richard Fowler. What a POS.

Fully agree! Whenever his face pops up as a contributor on FoxNews, I immediately hit the mute button!

I understand FoxNews having racists and Obamacrat ‘strategists’ on to live up to their ‘fair and balanced’ meme, but some of those slimeballs don’t deserve a minute of my time.

Not some of them, all of them. I hate Beckel, Powers, Colmes and serpent head Carville too.

Wow, has Joan grown hard over the years. A relative of mine was a writer for her in the late 60s, early 70s. She was a nice lady then...

Joan Rivers is wonderful. We saw ‘A Piece of Work’ - outstanding. She is a comic, which means she speaks the truth. Plus she sees the truth. She is at an age where she is untouchable and she may have lost a little more inhibition. I love ya, Joan!

Well, I was very close to people who worked for Carson when she stabbed him in the back, so my perspective is wildly different.

She was a really nice woman circa 1968.

Nick, let me explain . . . when Paula Deen foolishly admitted to using the N word - years and years previously - her career came to a screeching halt and her life was almost destroyed. Will the same thing happen to Joan Rivers? I’m just wondering.

You are buying into a left wing myth. It is patently not true that her actions were, "30 years ago." That was a left wing talking point. The fact is her racist behavior and poor treatment of employees of all races. The woman who sued her was actually a white woman, and she and her brother treated that woman despicably. Up to the day she was caught, she would not let black employees use the employee restroom, they had to use the customer bathroom.

She was revealed as a phony, that is why her business suffered. But her left wing cronies made sure she was set up with a new business. She is doing fine.

She is a vile, mean person who hates blacks, conservatives, and people she deems, "lower than her."

Blacks can use it, why do they get a pass?

Sick of hypocrisy.
