The things you do and say are still your thoughts. You just dont have the impulse control while under the influence. It doesnt just suddenly make you racist and then not again when youre sober. It just prevents you from controlling those thoughts in public like you would sober. so again, if he addressed it that way and pledged to change who he is, thats owning it and Id respect that. Trying to hide behind the shield of I know it was wrong but I was drunk doesnt get respect from me. That fair, and completely fine. I never watched the video so I cant attest to HOW he said it, but it sounds to me like he said it in anger; and anger CAN very well make you say and think things you never would say/do otherwise. Either way, you have your opinion and I have mine. I guess I sympathize with him a wee bit, but I would never condone that behavior either way. I just think hes doing the best he can to own it without committing literal career suicide. --- By Odin's beard! TheDogFather, you will be missed. <cite>SolidShadow3 posted [p:950531268] in Country st... [t:79289551]...</cite> <quote>VipaGTS posted... </cite> <quote>Yea.
