If it weren't bad enough that the producers thought it was funny to have Kramer set the Puerto Rican flag on fire, then stomp all over it, then have a crowd of Puerto Ricans (from the P.R. Day Parade) depicted as a savage mob attempting to turn over a car, they then have the audacity to show Kramer leaning out a window (looking at the crowd turning over the car) state words to the effect: "THEY DO THAT IN PUERTO RICO EVERY DAY". Well if that isn't adding insult to injury then I don't know what the hell is! Now NBC issued a so-called apology by stating: "IF anyone was offended..." Obviously, they're not really sure IF they offended anyone. They call that an apology? Please... The producers expect us (THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY) to really believe that they thought this was funny? Did they really think that we would believe that they never gave it a second thought as to whether they should film this? DON'T EVEN TRY IT!!! You had better believe that we KNOW that you MUST HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS and went on with it anyway!! Was that another ploy of yours to get Seinfeld even hotter prior to the final episode? Well, if it was, it was a CHEAP SHOT, and you know it. And you will know if further when your NBC stations are BOYCOTTED, and when the 30 MILLION HISPANICS band together to AVOID WATCHING YOUR NETWORK!! Suffice it to say, GOOD RIDDANCE to "Seinfeld". You producers couldn't have made a better choice in offending, insulting, injuring, demeaning, stereotyping, and generally degredating, a more sensitive community if a NEGATIVE BOOMERANG IMPACT is what you were after. Congratulations... Pat yourselves on the back. You've achieved a new low. Jerry Springer be envious...
NBC STINKS!!

God, you are one pathetic lonely whiner aren't you. Get this through your head...IT'S A SITUATION COMEDY SHOW!!! Characters get in unrealistic situations and people laugh at it. It's all a joke!! Anyone who doesn't understand that, and was offended by thursday's show ought to go back to whichever shit hole of a country they or their family came from and renounce every semblance of American rights they have aquired, one of which is freedom of speech. My parents are both mexican, latinos or hispanic, or whatever fuckin' term you prefer, and they were NOT offended by anything that happened during the show. If fact, they thought the ACCIDENTAL (you do realize it was accidental, right?) flag burning scene was the funniest (and in my case, only funny) part of the show. So quit your whining, admit you're wrong in opening your mouth without thinking, and wait for next thursday like everyone else.

P.S. Springer Rulez
If the Hispanic community really wanted to stop NBC from insulting their community why weren't they lobbying NBC to get Benjamin Bratt off Law and Order and bring back Mike Noth !!!!
Yeah!!!
PS. - I didn't even know Puerto Rico HAD a flag.
What am I going to do with all this Paella??? ======================================================================

the REAL problem is the number of bigoted morons like Andy here taking up space in this country.

Hey Gus: Why don't you try thinking before writing? If your IQ is not high enough to comprehend a written statement, try hiring someone who can convey the message. If you don't know how to do that either, then just piggy-back on your chihuahua and go back from where you came. Your own words said it best. Try re-reading it. And while you're at it, learn to spell. Your last word in PS should be rules not ruleZ...
If going back doesn't suit you then stick to doing what you do best... selling Duracell batteries in NY subways. Have a nice day...
Hey it's nice to know you've stopped crying long enough to write back. I'm in California and I don't know why you believe I'm from NY. I've been there and love Manhattan, too bad all you Puerto Ricans messed up all the boroughs. If I did not comprehend your statement, maybe YOU'RE the one that needs to go back (IF you even went) to school because a lot of people understood it the way I did judging by all the responses similar to my own. It must feel good to have so many people agree with your "message". HA HA HA!! (sarcasm at it's best) I hope this is the end of your pathetic whining. If you forgotten , this is a SEINFELD newsgroup, not a soapbox for "latino" discriminatory remarks. Good bye and Good Riddance to YOU.

PS. I know how to spell, I was being cute. Obviously a trait you're not familiar with you sheltered, ugly bitch.

The last time Hispanics banded together (btw I'm a WASP who majored in
Spanish Lit/Cutlure) was to protest the repeal of free medical care to
illegal aliens in TX/CA. Good riddance to Seinfeld? Good riddance to illegal
aliens who bitch and moan about lack of care (human rights?) and then suck
off the gov't teat for Welfare/Medicaid, etc. Boycott the leaches for a
year and listen to the whimper of cowed dogs. Too many American families do
without while unrepentant, unapologetic foreign, special interests groups
decry the unfair treatment they've received.
Adios amigos mios y espero que viven bien,I couldn't have said it better myself.

Its funny, because everyone was supposed to boycott "The Puerto Rican Day", but it got Seinfeld's highest rating ever.
Four mexicans stole my bike from Albertsons last week.

Couldn't agree with you more...take note all you ILLEGALS...guess Don was focusing on Mexicans and Dominicans...
Its a shame when people look to take offense at everything they see and hear. Not to say there is not racism going on, which there is.. (ironically in the USA more than anywhere else in the world). But give me a break. When Hispanics argue about trivial stuff like this, only seperation occurs. It does not further unity. Somebody has the 'Whoa is me syndrome'. If the one who wrote this is a true fan of Sienfeld and watched it quite frequently, they would realize that Kramer says some stupid things (generalizations of people and things) that arent necessarily true. What about the episode where Sienfeld is gets yelled at by the postman because the postman felt Seinfeld was being racist by asking where the Chinese resturant was.
I should note, ALL HISPANICs are avid fans of the Puerto Rican people so to include them (Lets all stand together mentality) is ludicrous.
A person can live their life to the best of their ability despite whatever oppression they have coming their way (race, wealth, religion, weight, etc) or they can worry what the other guy said and live a miserable life. Your choice...
I would like to mention, anyone who is saying 'Why do you take offense..' and then use the word 'SPIC' in your reply will make your entire arguement invalid due to your own feelings of racism.

Would it make you feel better if they started showing old reruns of "Chico and the Man"?

If the latino community was offended by this episode, how come they weren't offended by all of the others that may have offended women, men, homosexuals, jews, catholics, latvian orthodoxians and dentists? Just because it wasn't their group that was made fun of? Shouldn't they have realized that any show that makes fun of these groups will get to them eventually? Besides, you know they aren't trying to be offensive, just funny, which a P.C. world isn't. I'm a WASP, I liked the episode and I hate anyone who plays with those lasers in movie theaters. Oh yeah, some guy said racism is worst in the US. This is so stupid because if you look in the middle-east whole countries are anti-jewish or anti-islamic. Ireland says kill the protestants, etc. The U.S. is just a place where the country hates any and all racism so you hear about it, and also the bigots are allowed to speak.
MIRSKOUT YOU PUERTORICAN MIRSKITOS- VIVA MIRSKITAS!!!
what about the Nazi's and Commie's who seinfeld makes fun of

Who do you think you are to sit here and whine about such a stupid topic. If people like you would just shut up it was a joke and it was really funny. I think NBC shouldn't have apologized. I myself am Puerto Rican (not as if that matters or means anything) and found this hysterical. Quit complaining just change the channel next time!

Thanks for the perspective from a Puerto Rican with a sense of humor. What kills me is how the group that bitched about it wants a live apology on Thursday night in front of the 90 plus million people expected to tune in.
What springs to mind is the scene in "The Bubble Boy" when Jerry asks the waitress for his picture back, and she says "Yeah, Right!" in such the perfect way. I wish I had a WAV file. Hell, I wish I had a sound card.
So are you hispanics just gonna watch the sluts on your own channels
I don't know about you, but I ENJOY watch women sluts. Do prefer watching guys? Just curious.

Bingo. You obviously do not know what the hell is.
Thanks for playing. If you insist on being angry, go turn over a car. I hear THEY DO THAT IN PUERTO RICO EVERY DAY! :)
Kramer is an idiot. He gets himself into difficult situations. In this case he was enjoying the festivities with a Puerto Rican flag and a sparkler. Anybody who knows Kramers character could see it coming. Burning the flag wasn't funny, the miscommunication was. The fact that Kramer is an idiot is what was funny. They could have burned any flag, includiing the American flag and it would have been just as funny.
you stupid fuckin' cunt, how big of a moron do you have to be to not get the joke. You ignorant pathetic peace of shit.
So long jackass
