christians4jews do you have any proof to backup your claim that he wanted to convert to islam and who told you he was a savage just because he is black you are judging him.
I wouldn't be surprised about that claim because he acted as "Mohammad Ali" and admired him.
christian4jews, how can you blame people for "supporting" him if they never even knew that he was thinking about converting to Islam (if this claim is in fact true)
Also christian4jews, his character on some shows were just that, CHARACTERS. He's not a complete savage, he actually has a job and a family that he supports. Even though you disagree with his acting, he has entertained millions of people, which at least is worth something. Also, not all his movies were that bad.
If anyone was supporting him, they were supporting him because of the gross misinterpretation of his statement that was completely blown out of proportion. It is because of all those Jews who cry wolf about these types of things that Jews get a bad name and are seen as making a big deal out of nothing. Also, it is because of these Jews who make these sorts of claims that the LEGITIMATE CLAIMS aren't listened to because people see them as another example of crying wolf. The people who made a big deal out of his interview are a disgrace and are doing a disservice to the Jewish people.
