Acrdg to reports, Man took the stage at the Ryman Audorium (pictured above) and went off about gays -- sayg, "Gays need to qu beg p**si and not be whg about somethg as signifint as bullyg. When talkg about the possibily of his son beg gay -- Tracy said he "better talk to me like a man and not a gay voice or I'll pull out a knife and stab that ltle n**ger to ath.

* tracy morgan gay joke *
" In ncln, Man supposedly said that he did not re whether homosexuals were angered by his remarks, bee if they n "take" sex wh one another (which he apparently scribed very profane terms) "then they n take a joke.

So adds some perspective to remember that this isn't the first time he has offered a seri of gay jok that went far enough to upset a lot of people. If, for example, we are offend by the anti-gay ments Man's route, are we not also upset about his reference to his son as a "n*****" and the suggtn of child abe volved? Mart's pots, I feel, is a suggtn that the cricisms of Man are somehow at odds wh other exampl which there is no outcry, and the end I feel there's a challenge Mart's statements: if we're gog to cricize Man's anti-gay rhetoric, we better be nsistent and nmn ALL negative rhetoric equally.
