Regarding his recent controversy in the press over racial remarks made in a
phone conversation with his son, Duane "Dog" Chapman told FOX's
Hannity & Colmes that he felt a connection to black people
and thought he was allowed to say the word.
"There's a special connection that I thought I had
between me and black America," the emotional Dog the Bounty
Hunter star told Fox's Hannity & Colmes. "And I used
to say, 'I'm black, too."
"In other words, my whole life I've been called a
half-breed, a convict, king of the trailer trash, this and that…so when
I stood there and said, 'I kind of know what you feel like, because I've
been there, too,' that I felt that I could embrace and like, as
brothers…say the word."
"I now learned I'm not black at all, and I never did it
out of hate," Chapman continued. "This sounds so stupid. I always did it
out of love. Other white guys would be like, 'Boy, who does Dog think he
is? Dog can say that.' And black guys would be with me and walk with me
and respect me."
"So, I went too far with that."
Yeah, a little too far with that, Duane.
Gawd, why does everybody go
to Faux FOX News? Now I'm starting to think
Dog really is dumb!
Anyway, here's the video clip of the Dog's
interview:
