What’s a better way to get your name all over the papers than to say something dumb? In 2006-2007 there were a lot of racial slurs being thrown around. Many of us remember Mel Gibson’s tirade about the Jews which wasn’t the best timing considering he had just released a very controversial movie about the death of Jesus Christ. Wasn’t he a Jew Mel? Things died down a little bit until Don Imus opened his mouth and called the women on the Rutgers basketball team, “nappy headed hoes.” This was just as bad as Mel Gibson’s comment but at least Don Imus hadn’t made a movie about the Rutgers’. Picking up where Don Imus left off, Kelly Tilghman purposed “lynching Tiger Woods in a back alley.” This was probably the worst of the three considering she was suggesting murdering the number one golfer in the world right now where the other two were just making derogatory comments towards Jews and black women. Now the public knows not to blame the Jews for any wars, comment on black women’s hair or any woman’s hair, and definitely not to suggest lynching a black golfer that had changed the sport of golf.
