Thoughts on his appology? I think it was sincere. It doesnt make his actions any better but i he made sense.
I think that he was right that the term is used way to widely in the entertainment world.

I think his apology was sincere, but still doesn't justify his actions.
I completely agree with you that term is way too widely used, and not only in the entertainment industry. I hear it used in general conversation at bars, stores, and malls all time. It would seem like as much as the word is used, eventually it is going to lose it's meaning.

If there hadn't been any video on this, this would've
died a quick death.
Seems in America if you fess up to the incident
you're soon forgiven and everyone moves on.

Yeah agreed (with seve).
For as offensive as it is, to me it has lost its offensive luster, for lack of better words.
There rare time I find that word or better yet variations of the word in my volcab. is directed at a friend of mine in a joking manner, with the original meaning of it, not the racial meaning. Which is no different then the way it is used in entertainment.
I don't think it should be a widely accepted word but I don't think it as much more value recently then curse words due to its over use.

i'm glad that richards let it all out rather than going the Indiana (northern) route where you fake a smile and talk sh*t behind the back. it opened up dialog.

yeah though he was still out of line, I agree that keeping it inside can be just as bad sometimes. It did open up dialog.
