Brad Garrett Goes on a Racial Tirade! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brad Garrett ignited a new racial firestorm yesterday when the giant actor dropped some serious slurs at a paparazzo during a heated argument in the middle of the street.

We don't know what set off the scuffle, but Garrett can be clearly heard saying, "Wear the turban! Wear the turban!" People had to restrain both Garrett and the photog from attacking each other, but eventually Brad got into his car and drove off.

A rep for Garrett was not immediately available for comment.

Although I cannot tolerate this type of behavior from Brad, I can understand where his anger comes from. He has had some confrontation with the paparazzi before and they should know better than to antagonize him.

Once again, this type of behavior isn't acceptable, but I do understand why he becomes so angry.

Can't let Micheal Richards have all the fun!!! Seriously what's up with sitcom sidekicks these days? You never saw Art Carney or Don Knotts go off like this!

I heard far worse stuff uttered by other "comedians" over the years as part of their act (like anything George Carlin ever uttered about Christians) and get applauded for it rather than be made outcasts from society like they should have been. It's always ultimately a matter of which group it's okay to offend under PC standards and which aren't.
