It's kind of ironic how Imus's comments are doing more to bring down the "prison culture" of some rap music than anyone else could have done without his remarks. What he said was idiotic and he deserved what he got, but it brought about a discussion that we all needed to have.

On the other hand, is anyone else wondering who put Sharpton and Jackson in charge of speaking for all African-Americans? Was there a vote or something? I missed it if there was. Aren't the people he is trying to bring down his own constituents? Can you say backlash?
