Fresh Allegations That Tracy Morgan Is Homophobic

By HuffPost Entertainment Editors Posted Jun 10th 2011 10:10AM

UPDATE 12:20PM | Tracy has apologized, saying his routine "clearly went too far and was not funny in any context." Full Story

He's responsible for many a joke on '30 Rock,' but if true, Tracy Morgan's latest standup set is no laughing matter. A man named Kevin Rogers attended Morgan's standup show last Friday and reported on his Facebook page that Morgan let loose a viciously homophobic rant that, as far as he could tell, was a dead serious attack on gay men and women. Rogers, who is gay, wrote:

I figured at some point the gay jokes would fly and I'm well prepared for a good ribbing of straight gay humor. I have very thick skin when it comes to humor; I can dish and I can take. What I can't take is when Mr. Morgan took it upon himself to mention about how he feels all this gay s*it was crazy and that women are a gift from God and that "Born this Way" is bulls*it, gay is a choice, and the reason he knows this is exactly because "God don't make no mistakes" (referring to God not making someone gay cause that would be a mistake).

Perhaps most strikingly, Rogers alleges that Morgan said:

He said if his son that was gay he better come home and talk to him like a man and not [he mimicked a gay, high pitched voice] or he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death.

Rogers continued to describe the rant, which we've excerpted:

He took time to visit the bulls*it of this bullying stuff and informed us that the gays needed to quit being p*ssies and not be whining about something as insignificant as bullying. He mentioned that gay was something kids learn from the media and programming, and that bullied kids should just bust some ass and beat those other little f*ckers that bully them, not whine about it.

As it stands, Morgan's reps refused to comment to gay issues site Unicornbooty.com, writing, "There is no comment, thank you for your inquiry."

The Ryman Auditorium responded in a statement, saying it "regrets that people were offended" by the performance but adds the disclaimer that it "does not control the content presented by people appearing on its stage, nor does it endorse any of the views of, or statements made by, such persons."

If being gay is a choice then those of us that are not practicing homosexuals are simply choosing not to partake in homosexual activity.

Sexual orientation is determined at conception. Sexual preference may be both learned and biological (what type of man,woman, girl, or boy you find attrative).

GOD does not make mistakes, the problem is we humans do not know what perfection is!

Life is beautiful and wonder-filled!

If we don't find our "soul mate" we will wonder about. Sucks but there are many of us who are actually wondering about. But hope springs eternal. We have nine tries to get it right. Yeah, nine life cycles to make corrections. We can do it!

Ok so a white guy can't make black jokes. A black guy can't make homosexual jokes. But homosexuals can make fun of everyone? Did I get this pc crap right?????? just so i know.......

By Koz

I can't stand this guy. There is one thing I do agree with and that is stand up to bullies, then you will get respect. It may take a few beatings but it will work.
I got bullied twice in my life, once in grade school and the other in high school. Stood up for myself both time and never had a problem after that.

I never understood why Tracy Morgan was considered funny. Idiotic, yes; funny, no. Anyone who spews this much hatred about any group hates themselves. He fears he is homosexual, he certainly doesn't understand or have the ability to understand anyone who is not like himself. People who find him funny are either people just like him or people who are laughing at him. Either way, he's making money, so who's really stupid? The people who pay to listen to him. He's out of control, ignorant and unless he's really stupid - rich. Don't like him, then ignore him, he'll go broke and go away.

Why is it that gays claim that straight people are homophobic? Isn't this the USA? Everyone is entitiled to their own opinion, just because straight people think that gays and their life style are not to their likeing does not infer they are homophobic.

Gays need to get over themselves as they are not the authority on how people can think, they have to realize that they are not the only ones that can force their morally reprehensible morals and behaviors on the populace.

By David Hodo

Let me get this straight: You say that Gays are not the ONLY ONE'S that can force their morally reprehensible morals and behavoirs on the populace, so I guess you mean that you too can force your morally reprehensible morals and behavoirs on the populace also, what pray-tell are your particular reprehensible morals?

By antithesis

No. You're just being stupid. Felt the need to say something but didn't have anything worth saying. Next time shut up.

So much for 30 Rock.Really liked the show, but no way I'll watch it now.

If gays were born to be gay, why are they changing themselves to look like the opposite sex. Mabe because they are trying to convert a straight person by duping them. And gay women, why do they strap on a piece to use with another women. If you like women be with women who look like women, If you like men be with a man who likes a man, not be with a man that looks and acts like a woman and visa versa. Gays are always talking about their rights, but simutanusly are taking away they straight persons right to be straight.

let me guess...u were home schooled Dee?

Right on Dee
