Bounty Hunter N-Bombs Himself into Hiatus http://www.eonline.com/news/article/index.jsp?uuid=0354a673-d0b5-495c-a1f0-d3837d031db6&sid=fd-news Here are some snippets from the understandably controversial chat, in which Chapman—a Hawaii-based bail bondsman by trade—discusses the repercussions of using the N-word with his son, whose girlfriend, Monique Shinnery, is black: "I'm not taking a chance...not because she's black but because we use the word n----- sometimes here. I'm not going to take any chance ever in life of losing everything I've worked for 30 years because some drunken n----- heard us say n----- and turned us into the Enquirer magazine…I'm not taking that chance at all never in life. Never…" Tape here: http://ww.tmz.com/2007/10/31/dog-chapmans-hate-filled-tirade/ I wonder how they got the tape? Who ratted him out? Personally I don't think that "Dog" means any harm and his concern for using the "n" word is a possible end to his career, not out of hatred for blacks. Well guess what, he uses the "n" word and now a possible end to his career. Regardless, he F'd up big time as a celeb and supposed role model.
Oh god w.e everyone says it. If you take offense you to it get over yourself. No harm can come from a word unless its/they are used in very personal ways.
We use the word N------. We don't mean you Fu******* Scum N------ without a soul! It's none of that... He seems pretty comfortable with it. Time to use one of those roach clips he has on his armbands...
Older people who grew up "back in the day" heard that language and like every other living thing on the planet, worked it into life. I'm sure he doesn't mean any harm, it was just how he was raised and at that time/ place, it was accepted talk. I think after that "era" of people are over, then you'll just have the *******s using that word. And of course rappers trying to make their millions off of the word.
I have a feeling the irony was lost upon some... "I'm not taking a chance...not because she's black but because we use the word n----- sometimes here. I'm not going to take any chance ever in life of losing everything I've worked for 30 years because some drunken n----- heard us say n----- and turned us into the Enquirer magazine I'm not taking that chance at all never in life. Never " ...Yet, he did, and then some, and then some more. I, for one amongst many, am glad, as I'll never have to see this ugly-ass bunch of White Trash when flipping channels, or during commercials.
I have always wondered how this trash-can ever caught anybody with more than a second grade education. For example, wouldn't you kind of try to push a "low-profile look" if you were really going undercover to find somebody that the cops could not?
OK - I have heard most of the sound clip on the car radio just now at lunch. What the guy seems to be saying to his son is this: ""Dump your black girlfriend. If you keep your black girlfriend, you will not have a job on my "reality" show. The reason for this is simple: We often say the word N*******R here at the dog pound - and if she catches me saying it, she will sell me out to the tabloids and it will destroy everything I have worked for all these years since I got out of prison for killing that guy back in the old days."" <<he also says, with the most extreme sensitivity, that he has nothing against black people...in fact, he could care less even if the girlfriend was a mexican>>!!!!! Latest development: The TV producers have announced that they are suspending the bounty hunter show until a full investigation can be done. He can go hang out with fellow idiot Don Imus, as far as I am concerned.
So was it the kid who turned over the recording? Turn in Dad and make $250K or whatever it was? As a bounty hunter the guy is very good. A bounty hunter isn't exactly going to be your model citizen no matter how much he thumps the bible. I've always found the more someone uses the bible the more you have to keep an eye on them. Seems like everyone is out to get the Dog. The guy is cunning and a survivor. One of the first things he did was get a call in to Sharpton
Lets play devils advocate for a moment. Regardless of what you think about him should he lose everything because a private conversation was unknowingly recorded and released to the public ? Has no one on this thread ever said anything in PRIVATE that would hurt their reputation if released to the public ? No words of anger ? EVER ? Im not a racist...I dont use the "N" word but I believe its his right to use it in private if he so desires. If he had used it on the show then fine.. run him into the ground. But his private life should stay private.
Or maybe the kid's girlfriend. I would probably have dropped a dime on him, too - maybe the issue was more about telling the kid who to pick for his girlfriend rather than what race she was? BTW - if "everyone is out to get the Dog" then maybe it is because he sets himself up for it by being such a cartoon.
Yep.... everyone says it right??? I mean I don't personally, but there are alot of mexican dudes in my part of town and I hear them all saying it all the friggin time, trying to be "Hawd" (thats "hard" for all you white folk). N-this and N-that... I saw a fight with a bunch of mexican dudes at an apartment complex. Literally about 15 mexican dudes going at it. Totally honest here, all I could hear, literally, was niga niga, *fist smacking noise*, niga niga, *fist smacking noise*, niga niga, *fist smacking noise*, niga niga, *fist smacking noise*, niga niga, *fist smacking noise*... seriousely!!! it was aa friggin joke listening to all them fight and not a one of them was a black person, lol!!! Of course I'm not trying to be racist against mexican people, it just so happens that that was the case, but I really do hear the mexican thugs saying just as much as any other black thug you hear rappping on the radio. People try to be so dam "Hawd"..... then they go cry in their car when someone offends them. Pusses....
Maybe Jesse Jackson and/or Al Sharpton can get Michael Vick to handle this.... After all, Vick has a great reputation when it comes to taking care of a dog...
The U.S. has become too PC and everyone is offended by everything these days. I could care less what anyone on TV has to say. Anyone who sits around worrying about what kind of language Dog Chapman uses needs to get a life. Move along..
If you're a celeb you have to be extra careful and expect this kind of thing. But your own kid? Who else would have initiated turning in the recording? The only people who can wiretap illegally and get away with it is your government. So I doubt that it was recorded by someone else. Dog will bounce back, his son will marry a sister and all will be forgiven
Ok...The word has no meaning to black obviously. Why would blacks use the "worst racial slur known to them" in place of 'bro', 'dude', 'buddy' etc. You see what I mean. But hey of course they can shout of 'cracker' and 'white trash' all day.
I think the whole thing is stupid. If Curtus Jackson(50cent) said the N-word its normal he can say it as much as he wants in vain, But just because Dwanye Chapman said it all the sudden its the end of the world. I can't stand this doubt standard crap the media puts out these days which is why I don't watch TV much anymore, stupid people trying to make a big deal out of nothing. Leave the man alone its bad enough he's wanted by mexico. People say it all the time its just a damn word people!!!!! get over it!.
