- Tracy Morgan apologizes for homophobic rant; HRC: 'You must do more than apologize'
- HRC to Tracy Morgan: 'You're not funny'; GLAAD asks to probe alleged 'violently anti-gay remarks'
Facebook user Kevin Rogers reports online that comic Tracy Morgan of 30 Rock went on a homophobic rant Friday night in Nashville.
Rogers' Facebook note has gone viral, being posted and talked about across the Internet:
"He said that there is no way a woman could love and have sexual desire for another woman, that's just a woman pretending because she hates a f--king man. He took time to visit the bulls--t of this bullying stuff and informed us that the gays needed to quit being pussies and not be whining about something as insignificant as bullying. He mentioned that gay was something kids learn from the media and programming, and that bullied kids should just bust some ass and beat those other little f--kers that bully them, not whine about it. He said if his son that was gay he better come home and talk to him like a man and not [he mimicked a gay, high pitched voice] or he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death. He mentioned that Barack Obama needed to man up and quit being all down with this just because he has a wife and two daughters. All of this being followed by thunderous cheer and "You go Tracys". Tracy then said he didn't f--king care if he pissed off some gays, because if they can take a f--king dick up their ass... they can take a f--king joke."
ROTFL!!!!!!

This guy is great, is he coming to South Florida anytime soon?

This guy is not funny and never has been funny. 30-rock is my favorite show and I hope this gets him suspended from there. He needs to just go away.

Wow. Ignorance on stage and ignorance in the comments so far.

Amusing rant.

I made the huge mistake of going to a New York comedy festival to see this "comedian". His stand up sucks, I love a gay jokes as much a any Maxim reader but this guy is homophobic and he just plain hates gay people..it's just not funny. I can't understand how this guy works on TV and movies, an industry that is full of gays.

You know, people who don't accept the homosexual lifestyle are always called ignorant or homophobic. You can't label me because I don't like or accept your lifestyle. A phobia implies that I fear something or someone. Homosexuals then, must be catagorized as heterophobic. You see, these are just labels that take away from the real issue. Kinky sex is just that! Kinky sex. Sleeping with someone of the same sex is a decision that you make, just like a man who decides to sleep with more than one woman at a time. It is kinky. Let's call it what it is. If you are a man and like to sleep with men, or a woman who likes to sleep with women, that is your thing. Don't try to force your deviance on others. Contrary to belief of some of you, being gay is not akin to blacks and the Civil Rights Era. That is utter nonsense. Homosexuality is a learned behavior.

This guy's whole schitck is talking and acting like a dumb black guy. He's like a male Wanda Sykes....played out and not funny.

@Earnest Cave. Hey, Earnest, is heterosexuality a learned behavior. But for sure your ignorance and the ignorance of some others displayed on this page, by their comments, is definitely learned.
What are you afraid of Earnest, that a gay man will grab your junk or that no self respecting gay man would even want to be near your junk. Is that a phobia?
Yes, it is about civil rights, it's about rights period. If you pay the taxes then you should have the same rights.
Earnest get a grip and start learning, there is plenty of legitimate information out there available to you, if you do have an open mind, or even just a mind.
Tracy Morgan is not funny, look deep enough and you'll probably find it's more than just gays Tracy hates...just saying.

Those who rant about homosexuals the loudest are usually fighting their "tendencies". Don't be suprised Tracy Morgan gets caught in a bathroom stall in West Hollywood somewhere. ;)

@Reddick Harris:
Learn how to properly place punctuation marks and structure a sentence.
If you are so serious about this subject then everything in your communication(s) should demonstrate said seriousness.
Ignorance is bliss and you appear to be very happy.

earnest cave, how would you know gay behavior is learned, have you learned it or do you think you can learn it ?

Man Tracy is nuts. I lost it when on live national tv, on TNT he told the guys that Sara Palin was good masturbation material! Im sure it is on Youtube. Hey look, he is paid to be that way, and he did say to fight back to those bullying you.

It is what it is people "JOKE". stop beeing so sensitive all the time

@Reddick Harris: How would you ask if heterosexuality is a learned behavior? Now your obviously the ignorant one here because heterosexuality is a natural instinct that we as humans have because a man and a woman are NATURALLY supposed to be together so that they can reproduce. Can you reproduce with another male? Or can 2 girls reproduce together? Not at all therefore it is not natural it is something that is learned and what makes it even more unnatural is when a male claims to be gay and then starts acting all feminine like a girl or vica versa. Also this is not any type of civil rights movement or anything of that sort because in reality it's just not that important and things aren't meant to be that way. If you want to be gay then by all means do your thing, but don't sit here and act like this is as important as issues on racism or slavery back in the day because it is not. Fighting against slavery or racism is a battle against things that are wrong and fighting for gay rights is actually fighting for something that is wrong so you're actually doing the opposite as the fight vs racism or slavery. Oh and for the record, Tracy Morgan is HILARIOUS!!!!!!

If Mr. Morgan has that much hatred toward the Gay & Lesbian community, maybe he should pick up a sign and join The Westboro Baptist Church. You can see their fearless leader, Fred Phelps burning in a neon pink Gay Hell on my artist’s blog at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/03/fred-phelps-and-westboro-baptist-church.html Maybe there’s room for Tracy to ride the unicorn?

I think Tracy is very funny.
