He's an African-American who has been subjected to bigotry and hate before, and for him to be perpetuating that, he must be an insecure guy," Takei said.

I think that to have the privilege of free speech you have to be ok with hearing stupid and hateful crap like that. I don't really care if he apologizes, but I will show my feelings by boycotting him. And anyone else who believes that fear gives them the right to hurt another person. <br />Megan<br />PS George Takei will be talking about Tracy Morgan and this act, and if nothing else he will really be funny.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
