Random observation

As you all may know by now Dr Laura Schlesinger has announced that she will be leaving her radio show at the end of the year. She's leaving after the controversy caused by her rant in which while speaking about hypersensitivity about racism she said the word "nigger" 11 times. She said it 11 times in the span of 5 minutes. If you want to hear that rant you can click on the little embedded video below. Something I noticed about this controversy is that this whole thing kinda comes across like an episode of the boondocks but not nearly as funny. In fact it reminds me of episode 11 of season 2 of the boondocks. What I'm really saying here is that in both cases they made the mistake of generalizing an entire race and it backfired on them.

The rant
