I wished that some people would have done research before jumping to conclusions about the man. It's been said already—he has spent a lot of time in jail and around the lower-class. There are white people who say "nigger" to their black friends and don't mean for it to be offensive, and their friends are OK with it. I grew up in some pretty unsavory areas in Miami (multicultural heaven) and so I have firsthand experience with this. Hell, I'm surprised by how whitebread the rest of the country is outside of certain big urban areas. But anyway, this is what Dog claimed on Larry King, and after I heard the taped message and saw his actions and heard his words, I believe him.
He is an honest man, if not the brightest, and his son only did this to get back at him after planning to extort money from Dog by setting something up with his black girlfriend, who was the person Dog was complaining about on the phone. Dog had caught his son's girlfriend and a few of her friends planning to set up a fight with Beth, Dog's wife, and so he called his son to discuss it. He said basically that he didn't want this girl around his son because she is a shady character, and not because she is black, and he said this in the original taped message. He went on to say that he does not want this girl to tape him or anyone else in his family saying "nigger" and sell it to the National Enquirer—because he knew it would be misconstrued.
It's funny how those who claim liberalism, political correctness, and progressivism frequently do not have any close relationships with people of color. It's like they're afraid and use minor shit like this to define how to act around someone of a different race because they don't know how to act, when in reality you just need to relax and be yourself.
