Don Imus and The Story of The Frog and The Scor...

I heard this story as a child and since then I heard others speak of it. Sometimes you change the animals in the story but the moral is still the same. This is the way I remember it: Once upon a time there was a Scorpion sitting on the side of a river. The Scorpion wanted to get to the other side of this river. After waiting for a very long time a Frog hopped up along side the Scorpion and right before the Frog jumped into the river to go to the other side the Scorpion yelled out to him asking for a ride across. The Frog looked at the Scorpion and said to him, "No, if I gave you a ride on my back you would sting me and I would die." The Scorpion begged and pleaded, promising that he would not sting the Frog. This went on for some time and finally the Frog believed the Scorpion and told him to get on his back and that he would give him a ride across the river. The Scorpion gets on the Frog's back and they get to the other side of the river. Once they are land the Scorpion stings the Frog with his poison. As the Frog lies there dying he says to the Scorpion, "but you promised that you would'nt sting me." The Scorpion says, "I know I did, but you see, it's in my nature." and the Frog died. You see, this is why I don't understand why people are so surprised at Imus's racial comments. After the "Nappy-Headed Ho's" comment, I don't see him anymore. Now, who needs to be held responsible for his actions are those who pay him. Those are the ones who literally support his racist views. They are allowing him to speak for them. It is in his nature to be a racist and he's proven that. A black man who has trouble with the law, or continues to make bad judgments still does not give Imus or anyone else the right to make a racial slur on national radio. This is crazy! Where is the FCC on this? But they followed Janet Jackson around for a lawsuit when her breast popped out of her clothes. The level of tolerance is amazing when it comes to putting a stop to this and this is why some people believe that it's never going to end...Like me. Imus's ass needs to be removed from his spot, take off that raggedy ass cowboy hat and put on his true hat. What's next? Are they going to allow him to burn a cross on the show? Or maybe he'll show up to work with a noose around his neck dressed in black-face singing a song that slaves sung when they were out in the fields picking cotton, or agree with Clint Eastwood that The 92nd Division of the Buffalo Soldiers were insignificant during World War II. I believe that if we really wanted to change this world we could. But there are always going to be those who don't like others for whatever reason, but I thought that there were laws put into place to protect people from people like Imus. I guess we just have to fight the battles as they come and trust that God has the last word and Judgement Day IS GUARANTEED. And I'm getting really close to the point of offering Imus to call me at 504-------! He is what he is but those who pay him should pay for him. I remain, Mrs. Phyllis Montana-Leblanc. Peace.
