In the same vein as Mel Gibson’s anti-Semitic DUI blowup, Michael Richards, aka Seinfeld’s “Kramer” has chosen to join the bigot ranks. The performer, I’m sure now just days away from “rehab,” was on-stage in LA when he turned friendly heckling into a racist shout match. Don’t watch if you’re easily upset by the N word. It’s horrifying.

UPDATE: I just read that Richards was the original audience member tossed with water in the Andy Kaufman act. I don’t know if this is a Man on the Moon stunt but it seems grossly unnecessary. Thoughts?
