Was Kanye motivated by race?

Posted on 09/15/2009 4:07:26 AM PDT by Halfmanhalfamazing

Now, you KNOW that had the roles been reversed the liberal media's race baiting journalists would be out there asking this very question.

So, how about it? Was his motivation racial?

That perhaps....but I think alcohol had more to do with it.

Combination of alcohol and race. Alcohol amplifies whatever mood you’re in before consuming.

Truly sad how this isn’t going to be categorized as a “hate crime” (so to speak) because it happened to a honkey!

Whites under assault?

No no, MSNBC clearly told me that Rush Limbaugh and the rest of THE RIGHT WING are out there pushing their racism and hate.

Your comment seems hateful to me. Why the hate?

Another example of liberal bigotry - reminded me of the ugly episode involving Perez Hilton versus Miss USA.

Honestly, all kidding aside..............

It could’ve been just as simple as Kanye wanting to put himself in the spotlight again.

Or it was a setup. A lot of these shows don’t get the attention that they used to.

I just prefer seeing everybody get treated the same. If MSNBC and other race baiting news organizations are gonna push their propaganda on one side, it should be held up just the same for the other side.

That’s an easy way to get it to stop.

Yes, it was a “hate crime”.

Of course it was motivated by race!

People like Obama EMBOLDEN people like Obama.

Look at the U.S. Open in tennis - this black woman threatened to kill the judge when she didn’t like his call. Expect more of this. Obama is setting the tone ... .

Obama just called Kanye a "jackass."

What a racist Obama is! Let me be the first to call it "Hate Speech!"

Not only that, he (Obama) is species-ist. How do you the poor jackass feels, knowing that Kanye is being compared to him?

his motivation

...as in most cases, his belief that his wealth,popularity,and status in his venue gives him the right to act stupidly...in which he can always apologize and all will be forgiven....just show remorse

West acted like he did because he knew he had the opportunity to apologize 24 hours later, nationwide, on Leno’s premiere.

MTV exists only to parade @$$hole pig racist-sexist rappers across your tv screen. That’s what makes them money. The more outrageous and controversial the rapper is, the better MTV likes them.

Turning on MTV is like inviting a sewer to flow into your living room.

I agree. There are several pictures of Kanye West holding up an open bottle of hard liquor while on the red carpet at the VMAs this year. I'm surprised there are no "open bottle" laws in New York state, because West could have been arrested for public drunkeness by holding up that open bottle of hard liquor.

“It was a publicity stunt.”

How ironic was it that West was booked on the “new” Leno show the next day!

:o /

The guy is a no-class, self-promoting, ghetto a-hole.

Kayne West llke many black people doesn’t even need alcohol to let his inner racist out. I don’t even really have a problem with him being “racist” other than white people get crucified for acting the same way.

Well, let's see. He's negroid. He's a drunk. He's a drunk negroid attacking a WHITE girl. So we have a drunk, negroid attacking a WHITE girl claiming a negroid girl is better than the WHITE girl. So that's a racist negroid drunk attacking a defenseless WHITE girl over a negroid girl on TV.

Nope. Definitely NOT racially motivated! Anyone who says so is racist!

poor kanye,
Sorry folks the alcohol only brought out the inner racist in him again. Notice how he didn’t go after the “male winner in that catagory.” He’s a cowardly beach.

You see he doesn’t have his momma’s hand to hold no more telling him he’s the center of the universe.

Yes he is a racist. His history shows it but then again so am I. I choose not to associate myself with bad people in my personal life. A sound decision for me. The difference between good people and bad people is that bad people make a continuing string of bad decisions after bad decisions.

It was race.

It was alot of things. His instant fame. All that money. The women that fawn over him. His “center of the world” mentality. His rewards for being outrageous.

Kanye West.... from his head to his toes, from his beliefs, his behavior, ....everything about him epitomizes all the problems with this country.

Kanye West is the posterboy for whats wrong with this society.

Can you imagine if a white male country singer pulled the mic out of the hand of a young black female singer and did what Kanye did? The LA riots would look like a bar brawl.

The redneck country CRACKER was picked over the black woman and Kanye wasn’t having it.

Get real. There was no “attack”. Just a drunk a-hole acting out. You make it sound like he raped her.

“”””ill-mannered idiot.””””””

That is fueled by something. He wasn't born that way.

He has new money. Fame. This makes his head 10 times bigger than normal.

He is surrounded by bodygaurds all the time. Now, having served in a private security detail for a short amount of time years ago... these guards are really not there because his life is in danger. They are there to help him get around. The majority of their time is spent keeping women off of him. They keep fawning fans off of him and are basically there to clear a path so he can walk.
This creates a HUGE ego. A celebrity in this situation thinks the world revolves around him. Especially a celebrity that made all his money living a “thug” image.

Now, his private life only adds more fuel to his ego. People want to be seen with him. They beg to be a part of his circle. He doesn't have a few women.... he has DOZENS. He can snap his fingers and women rush to him and he can snap his fingers and dismiss them just as quick. All because of his money and fame.

Add to this the rapper mentality of “kill whitey” and “bitches ain't nothing but hos” and you have absolutely no remorse in making a country white girl cry.
