        Maher's firing was the only move HBO had. Vocal racist cannot be tolerated in a civil society.

        He should have been terminated over his transphobia. If he gets away with this blatant racial comment then @HBO is fine with racism.

        I thought it was weird. It was really out of place as well. It was as though it was a natural placement. It was as if he says it normally.

        We are so opposed to right wing racists that sometimes we ignore them in our own ranks. It's about changing as a people. An idea not a team.

        As a black woman I wasn't offended. I don't like that word but it was a joke. I laughed actually. Folks are way to sensitive.

        Personally, I don't think anyone should be fired for talking. If I don't like it, I know how to turn it off. I suggest others do the same.
