Black American misogynistic bully Coolio gave the Black Power salute on last night's show.

Should this racist be ejected?

America has just crowned its first black President. Who cares what 'salute' he does, he is obviously taking pride in being a black man and having the first black present elected.

he is also the only entertainment in the house other than Terry.

If a housemate gave a White Power salute they would be evicted.

He is a racist , it seems funny how the only 2 women he did not argue with was black ie : La Toya Jackson and Mutya Buena . "Go figure"

This is yet another inflamatory thread. Why have these kinds of thread been popping up on the forum recently.

oh hang on nothing became of the Michelle farce and now..... drumroll... Coolio is racist!!! I was happy to see him so delighted for his country. In fact in the diary room when they went in to say thanks for showing them the inauguration, they all said how they felt about it. Verne made a very valid comment that white and black, it didn't matter anymore and Coolio joined closed fists in agreement with Verne. Also coolio also agreed with Tommy the fact that President Obama spoke about religon he also included in his speech, the Non-believers. Coolio is not racist!!

I think the real question should be 'Is the OP of this thread racist?' :whistle:

exactly, although it now seems he is trying to label Ulrika as such. I find that sickening beyond belief. He knows exactly what he was trying to do by doing that, but then again if he is allowed to get away with what he has done so far and still be supported (that depresses me more than anything, that in 2009 people in the world will still defend that sort of behaviour), maybe he believes he has the right to label anyone to suit his needs.

if thats a reference to me, then you should know this. I'm only anti-ignorant Americans, like LaToya and Verne, I supported Dirk and Jermaine last time and have many American friends and family and have been to the States many times. I just dont stick up for throwbacks who treat women like their property and I get dismayed when they are supported and defended for it.

I believe in equality for all. Sexism and the bad treatment of women is just as bad as racism and both sicken me. I voted "No he isnt racist" as I dont believe him to be and have seen nothing to suggest he is, but he does have a problem with women and the fact that he chose to imply that Ulrika might be racist, it pretty low IMO

The Negro Power salute is very offensive & should be banned.
