Who says Eminem is so easily forgiven. I've read many forums about his "Foolish Pride" lyrics and a lot of people are pissed off about it. The reason why Michael Richards caught more sh*t and rightfully so was because of the extremes he went to in his rant. Eminem had plenty of negative stereotypes in those lyrics but Michael Richards was outright racist with what he said. He went WAY over the top with what he said and there's no denying that. Plus, Eminem is all about shock value because apparently that's all he's skilled at. Also he was 15 when he wrote that song. Michael Richards came out of left field with his racist rant. No one, myself included, would have expected such a thing from him. He used to be one of my favorite people before that but not anymore. Eminem I never really cared much for in the first place.
