He is not in the movie, but maybe I should just read the Jared Diamond chapter instead? Just when you think there could be no worse example of racism, Michael Richards appears. I expected so much more from those who society has been so very kind and benevolent to. It is difficult to separate Mel Gibson from his anti semitic, sexually harassing and self-aggradizing comments: The report says Gibson told the deputy, "You mother f*r. I'm going to f you." The report also says "Gibson almost continually [sic] threatened me saying he 'owns Malibu' and will spend all of his money to 'get even' with me." The report says Gibson then launched into a barrage of anti-Semitic statements: "F***g Jews... The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world." Gibson then asked the deputy, "Are you a Jew?" The deputy became alarmed as Gibson's tirade escalated, and called ahead for a sergeant to meet them when they arrived at the station. When they arrived, a sergeant began videotaping Gibson, who noticed the camera and then said, "What the f* do you think you're doing?" A law enforcement source says Gibson then noticed another female sergeant and yelled, "What do you think you're looking at, sugar tits?" We're told Gibson took two blood alcohol tests, which were videotaped, and continued saying how "f*d" he was and how he was going to "f" Deputy Mee. I don't know that I can ever watch a Sienfeld episode again. I certainly don't believe him when he says he is not a racist. One has to be a racist to say this: "Fifty years ago we'd have you upside down with a f*ing fork up your ass." Richards continued, "You can talk, you can talk, you're brave now motherfker. Throw his ass out. He's a nigger! He's a nigger! He's a nigger! A nigger, look, there's a nigger!" Richards responds by saying, "They're going to arrest me for calling a black man a nigger."
