After seeing Dave Chappelle on Oprah I believe the theory that Oprah and other black elites are trying to destroy him. Oprah was mean to him and tryed to make him look crazy. She was as hostile toward him as she would have been to a KKK member. You could tell by watching the show that she hated him. In fact she was yelled at him and tryed to make say he quit for a number of reasons he presented arguments against.
This is sad because he is such a great guy according to a lot of folks. He is going to give half the proceeds of his movie to charity. He invited a bunch of random people to a block party in new york. He invited every day people including a highschool band from another state and paid for them to get there. |

I hate Oprah. That cow thinks she is God in a black woman's body.

What she said. |

After Bill Cosby had that conference in Detroit, and told the Black Community how it really is, He got slapped with a bogus Sexual Harassment charge......Same thing with Dave.

I hate talk shows in general. Oprah just seems to be the one without the trash they call "guests."

I don't know about the conspiracy theory one way or the other, but I do believe there must be a lot of people who want him silenced. He continually portrays the issue of racism in America as something that isn't just one-sided oppression of black people. He's said a few times on his show and in interviews that the issue isn't race at all, but culture. I think that alone is enough to piss off a lot of people who would rather be professional victims.
He seems like a decent, smart, and very funny guy to me. That's another reason for most no-talent show business clowns to hate him. |

Almost every housewife in the US! |

I wish I could do something to help him if he is being threatened. I feel that he is getting a bad deal because he wont conform to what the Black elite want him to be. He is going against his masters and that is why the feel so threatend and want to attack him. |

I admire him for standing up against the racial bandwagon, Morgan Freeman too.
I HATE opra. Ever seen at her magazine at the grocery store? EVERY single issue has a picture of her on the cover. Talk about self worship... |

Dave Chappelle makes his living portraying caricatures of the negative stereotypical black man.
He woke up one day and discovered that he was being offered a $50 million dollar contract to be the 21st century version of Stepin' Fetchit. The prototypical movie coon was Stepin Fetchit, the slow-talking, slow-walking, self-demeaning nitwit. It took his character almost a minute to say: "I'se be catchin' ma feets nah, Boss." Donald Bogle, a cinema historian, lambasted the coon, as played by Stepin Fetchit and others: Dave Chappelle decided that he couldn't continue doing this even though it meant losing himself and Comedy Central millions and millions of dollars of revenue, Not to mention the makeup, wardrobe craft services people , camera men and carpenters camera men etc. that he put out of work. He just couldn't do it. Not even for 50 million dollars. **any offensive words such as " c**n" here are direct quotes and do not reflect this posters belief system. |

I agree whole heartedly with you on this. I am so saddened with humanity and the way they are acting toward someone who brings somany people such joy from his comedy. |

if you go hear you can watch it.www2.oprah.com/index.jhtml |
|
|
Why do so many people just want to start things? |
|
|
Chapelle is a threat to the black community but Fiddy Cent isn't?
Oh, now I get it: Oprah and Cosby wacked Tupac and Biggie. It was for the children. |
|
|
I remember oprah back when she was using the sets that Phil Donahue threw away and had a perm. Not to mention was as big as a fucking house.
Now, shes a fucking BLACK person that white people watch to feel like they can TOLERATE BLACK people and not feel bad for slamming thier door locks on thier car everytime they see a BLACK person. She is Blacktical, cool cause shes black, like my rifle. |

I would hope Cosby could see the difference and not be a partner with Oprah in whacking Dave. Still, it seems Dave is uncomfortable about some of the stuff he's done and is talking about giving 1/2 the $ he makes to charity to assuage his occasional guilt at going over the line and rattling Oprah's cage.
I think Shakespeare wrote a play about this, "Much Ado About Nothing." This is just a corollary to things like the head of the NAACP, Julian Bond, calling Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell "tokens". Didn't hear Oprah saying anything to Julian for that outrageous comment....maybe because like islam they're uncomfortable criticising the imans/leaders of their religion/race. Maybe we, as gun-owners to set a good example should come right out in a single voice and say, GW, if you don't get something going on national CCW or affirmation of the 2nd and subsequent negation of state bans, we're going to go off the reservation and vote for an independent candidate..... disclaimer...this is just the idle musings of a foggy afternoon, turning dark. |

I always thought that Bill Cosby was better than that, since he never realy got into the polatics of Hollywood fame he sort of kept to himself and tryed not to attract bad attention. Why can't these people see the show for what it is just ragging on the bad stereo types that have been personified so much by the media and government. These people should be punished for what they did. This type of thing should never have happened to someone that makes so many people laugh with him not at him and the sooner that these people realize this the better off we will all be. They should stop trying to act like God by judging others. |

Can I have more info on Morgan Freeman? He is Clint Eastwood's friend, so I knew he couldn't be all bad, but I would like to know more about your post. |

The Dave Chapelle I knew would have never appeared on Oprah. What in the hell happened to him?
Speaking of charity, why doesen't oprah donate half of everything she makes all the time?? Scott |
|
Screw Opra with a corncob.
Dave Chappelle's appeal is he pokes fun at everyone, and he is mostly correct about his observations. He is one funny Nigger. Lebrew |
|
....And she gave birth to Dr. Phil through that slimy brown "membrane" I love Dave Chapelle!!!!! |

|
OHHH MY GOODNESS I ALMOST PISSED MYSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was so funny. |

I was not sure if the video would be on the link I posted or not that was the first time I ever tried to do that I'm glad that someone was able to get a link. I was kind of in a hurry my son was having some breathing problems and I had to run. |

He was on 60 Minutes recently. I saw the whole interview. Freeman is definitely a 'good guy' in my book. Here you go:

I think the thing is that they are all jealous because they thought they would be on top and the highest payed. Along with the fact that they thought they would get watched a lot also. I feel that Oprah is the ring leader and wants to get rid of anyone that does not do what they think should be done. |
