Issue:
A private conversation between 'Dog' Chapman and his son was captured and obtained exclusively by the 'National Enquirer'. This tape has exposed 'Dog' Chapman using the "N" word and admitting to using the word in his job. Was his use of the word in this conversation grounds for removing his show? For now the show has been suspended.

It was A private conversation between 'Dog' Chapman and his son so really it was not for all to hear and what he says in the privacy of his home is his business I don't like the N word anymore then the next person but then thats me not them but everyone get their pantys in a bunch over it but now if someone called me a wagon burnner or a red skin nothing would be said none of these name are nice but then thats the world we live in you have it every where. So why take the bread and butter off their table not just Dog but also Leland Duane lee Baby Lisa and Tim who were not involved in it and their Families. They are the ones that are going to be hurt by the public sticking their noses into their personal life and private converstion is that not a invation of privacy.
Dog is in the public eye, and kids of all colors, shapes and sizes looked up to him. We strive America as the melting pot. I feel that there is already alot of hatered in this world of ours, and we don't need anymore!!!!!!! I wouldnt of ever knew that you were like this. I can't believe your wife can be married to a moron ass like yourself. Your basically teaching your kids to hate. You should be the next BUSH.. PPL like you, give White boys a BAD NAME!! And yes.. IM white.. Talk **** now!! And YES, I am MARRIED TO A BLACK NINJA (NIGGA). So, Do Something... You and your wife!!!! You dont pump fear!!!! neither does your wife. If your like that, your wife is like that as well! I can't believe that you can end your life on that note. Yes.. were two females.. and what? You said' your a GOD FEARING MAN, BUT GOD DOESNT SEE COLOR,AND YOUR SUPPOSE TO WALK IN THE LIKELINESS IN HIM!!!!! YOU SEEN GOD GAVE YOU A SECOND CHANCE@ LIFE,WHY DONT YOU GIVE BLK PPL A SECOND CHANCE??????ADMIT TO YOUR MISTAKE!!! YOU ONLY APOLOGIZED BECUZ YOU GOT CAUGHT UP!! YOU SEEM ALOT SMARTER IF YA SHUT UP!!! YOU NEED JESUS!!!
I don't think Chapman should be fired. His son is a punk who needs to grow up. I'm not sure why the N-word is used in their circles. It wasn't made clear. I'm white. I was raised on the West Coast. Most intelligent white people I know NEVER use the word. I never found a use for it. And, I personally trained myself a long, long time ago to simply NEVER, EVER use the word in private or otherwise. My main reason was simply because it can get you in a lot of trouble. If you are black, you want to know something about a lot of white people and the N word? Whenever we are around black people we sometimes get an irrational fear that somehow, out of the blue, we might slip and use the word even though we never use it at all, EVER! It's just weird. For no reason we just get this quick, racing thought, 'Oh. What if I say "N***" by accident.' These black people are going to jump all over me and kick the sh*t out of me. I know it's not just me. We just don't talk about it. I HATE that word. It makes it hard to make new friends sometimes.
I suspect somehow in Dog's inner circle the N word is part of the vocabulary for reasons that aren't clear to me and not any of my business. His world is different from mine.
Dog was trying to bring his son up to speed. I could hear some regret in Dog's voice as he realized he was having to explain to his son that the N word is used sometimes in their close circles and that the potential for ruin would greatly increase with the presence of a black person in their midst. It was all down hill from there. It's too bad that Dog didn't change his own vocabulary a long time ago. That word seems to only get people in trouble. I was all for burying it. Some people still wield it as a tool for bad. Even though I don't think Dog Chapman should be fired, I absolutely understand the business decision to do it. You can't take it back once it is said. It's like some evil perpetual spell he is going to regret for the rest of his life. I feel sorry for this father and son and the innocent girl. One stupid word born generations ago and won't go away.
I listened to the taped conversation and I don't believe that Dog said anything that someone would consider racist. He spoke the N*** word, however, I don't believe he meant it maliciously. His son should be hung out to dry. He was doing everything in his power to set up his dad and I guess it worked. The conversation was supposed to be between a father and son. NOT THE ENTIRE WORLD. What has this world come to. I think that Dog and his family do a great deal of good for their community and I would be proud for them to be my neighbor.
The "N" word should never be used at anytime, but, this was a private conversation, not intended for the public, I think someone is trying to make money from this situation! Should the show be canceled? NO, because their are others who will loose their jobs, , that is not right........but then again it seems like it's a double standard when it comes to the "N" word......Just tonight I was watching 90210, and a black women comic used that very word? Why is it ok for her?
If Dog is truly sorry, I think people need to forgive & forget, "Let Him Who Is Without Sin Cast The First Stone"
LOL
I feel terrible about this whole situation. Dog - has to forgive his son, and it is time to stop with the racist comments. You are in the public eye, I admire you for becoming a better person.... Your fault is your use of horrible words -- but, I do understand the point you were trying to make.... It wasn't racist (but it was), it was you protecting yourself from yourself.
and look what happened-- You're worst fear came true.... It was ugly.... what you said... and you have disappointed me, and others... But what is good about believing in the Lord, is that things happen for a reason... and oddly enough I know that you will come out of this a better person.
duh
first of all she is the one who is defamed,DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER BECAUSE SHE IS BLACK.RACISM IS ALIVE & DOING WELL
IT HAS'NT GOTTEN ANY BETTER SINCE DR MARTIN LUTHER KING'S
ERA.RACISM IS ALIVE & WELL & MY PEOPLE ARE STILL STRUGGLING & SUFFERING DEALING WITH RACISM EVERY DAY,EVERY HOUR SO I GUESS THIS IS ANOTHER CASE OF DWB..DATING WHILE BLACK...BUT GOD SEES ALL & KNOWS ALL.
