Okay so last friday a woman named Kelly Tilghman was on the golf channel with another guy. Just having nonsense chitter chatter. So they start talking about tiger woods. And the guy is like oh ya they should gang up on him, and she’s yah like lynch him in the back alley. what….what… did she just say that? Now this is the first time i heard this story so im kind of late. But its still the fact that in the year 2008 someone can say that in a joking manner. Like oh ya ( chuckles) lynch him in a back alley. Who says that. Then people all over the media and the internet asking. Is She a Racist. Well if she wasnt a racist she would have never made those remarks. I mean of all the things she could have said, that’s what came out. It’s hard to believe ,i know that racism exist in golf, a majority white game!( sarcasm incase you didnt catch it) but justice was done. Some people said she should have been fired, I dont agree. she was suspended for 2 weeks. Personally i think a month would have done it but 2 weeks is fine. She should know that joking about a serious thing such as lynching is not acceptable. Look at Don Imus and him talking about the Rutgers Basketball team. Look where that got him, i mean although he got his job back , he still was “punished”. Also like Micheal Richards, the racist guy from seinfeld at the Laugh Factory shouting out racist remarks. Where did that get him, well no where because he’s a nobody anyway but hey his name is forever soiled. In a time where nooses are popping up every where as a “joke” the last thing out of anyone’s mouth should be lynching.

Well im glad i got that off my chest because it was really urking me that something so stupid was said. Hopefully she learns her lesson and donate to a black college. Or maybe she’ll just go home and put on her white hood.
