Just When Jersey City Was Almost Respectable

Some asshole had to go out and threaten Ashy Larry with a gun.

Not Ashy Larry! He's a cultural icon! Look at him!

Except that he was just fired from his radio job for playing "Are you smarter than an asian" and making other racist Asian jokes on the air.

So when he says "Rampant, overt and baseless hatred that lives and breathes on our streets daily. Jokes spoken in jest are not the root of evil in our society... it's ignorant, angry people that create chaos," it rings kind of like a pathetic attempt at defending himself, doesn't it?

Good year for Ashy Larry: first he alienates Chappelle fans by hosting the extra episodes of the show that Chappelle voiced his displeasure about, then he gets fired from his radio job for racist comments, and then he gets threatened by a racist wielding a gun!
