Comedian doing stand up is heckled by a pair of African-Americans. Comedian then -- *shudder* -- gets pissed off. Pissed, he uses the N word.
Now he's a pariah.
Something's wrong with this picture. Of course, I say that in part as someone with a temper. Who rides NYC rush hour trains every day. I really don't get what the problem is with a pissed off person using an offensive word directed against the persons who deliberately goad him. Or in this case why it's OK for the two men to ruin a show for everyone -- by the heckling -- but not OK to use and offensive word when they succeed in pissing off the performer.
