D.L. Hughley on "Nappy Headed Hoes"
The story speaks for itself, D.L. Hughley was on Jay Leno about a month ago and the issue of Don Imus and the Rutgers Womans basketball team came up. Here's what he said:
"Now they aren't “hoes,” but “there were some nappy headed women on that team". Shut up I'ma say it. Those are some of the ugliest woman I've ever seen in my whole life."
The comment prompted black leaders in Texas to protest his recent stand-up gig in Fort Worth.

I don't know this, but this whole thing was kicked off by African American bloggers. One of the protest organizers in a Black blogger, Eddie Griffin. We've been blogging about Hughley for about two months and Eddie saw one of my posts and then contacted his pastor. If you go to my blog, I have links to the actual video of the protest. Including Eddie catching a case when he is escorted out of DL's show by Fort Worth PD and a confrontation between the protesters and Neon Dieon Sanders and his wife as they try to creep out of the show.

I've never been a fan of DL. The majority of the time, he's not even funny.

He really isn't funny, he's actually very sorry.

This is exactly why blacks will be a self collapsing race. How you gone say some messed up stuff like that. What did those girls ever do to anyone? If sad, actually it's very disencouraging and sickening.

DL was wrong for his comment. I guess his mamma never taught him to keep his comments to himself. His hair aint the nicest grain if you really want to know!!!

Wow, can these chicks get a break?! After all they've been subjected to, here he comes. Insensitive, and just plain stupid all things considered. But I guess any publicity is good publicity and I'm sure that's what this low blow was all about.

DL Hugley is in no position to critize anyone's physical characterisitics. He is a thin, unattractive male who relies on gutter comedy for a living. Furthermore, he's not funny, which is why his last show was canceled. The irony of his comment is that his hair is also "nappy," which seems to be a problem for the typical ignorant black male. Black males like Hughley tend to embrace their natural locks but feel that black feminity and beauty should only be expressed through long straight hair and light skin.

Listen a Male and only a MALE is supposed to have Nappy Hair.When it comes to feminity that can only be expressed through Long Flowing Hair which swings down your back.
Black Women are no exception to the rule.
