Radio Interview with George Takei
Radio- show host: Mister Takei it is a pleasure to meet you.
George Takei: Well, it's a pleasure for me, too. Thank you.
Host: We want to talk about the incidents from last week as the famous NBA- Star Tim Hardaway attacked gay people on TV. He said: "Well you know, I hate gay people. I let it be known I don't like gay people. I don't like to be around gay people. I'm homophobic. It shouldn't be in the world, in the United States. I don't like it!" It isn't a secret that you are gay so what was your first reaction as you heared that this happened?
G. Takei: Well, I was pretty shocked that such a terrible statement was send on TV. Of course you should mean that such a famous man like Tim Hardaway wouldn't say such a thing in public. It ruines his reputation as a big NBA player in a way and he had to know that. There are always people who are against the gay community, but this example is pretty glaring.
Host: So when did you started to realize the response with the funny internet/TV production?
G. Takei: After a few moments it was clear that something had to happen. We had to reply on this statement so a few other gay people who I know and me started to think about a possible reaction. Well, we just thought that it's the best reaction when we won't react as serious as he presented his statement. That's the story!

... Vincent Chins murderers were only forced to pay $ 3.700 dollars. An autoworker and his stepson killed Vince Chin on June 19th in 1982. They hurt him badly with a baseball bat so that he died a few moments later. Chin was mistaken for a Japanese who were blamed for the sagging US car industry. The Vincent Chin case ended in rallies and demonstrations of Asian Americans and was the reason for the formation of an Asian American Movement.
