Kramer From Seinfeld Is Racist?!

TMZ has obtained footage of Michael Richards' (Kramer from Seinfeld) racial tirade from his Friday night performance at LA's Laugh Factory.

For nearly three minutes, Richards used racial slurs, causing audience members to gasp and leave. He also got into a fight with a black man who told him that “he’s a reject and has never had any shows.“

The crazy began when Michael said to a black man in the audience, “Fifty years ago we’d have you upside down with a fucking fork up your ass. You can talk, you can talk, you’re brave now motherf**ker. Throw his ass out. He’s a nigger! He’s a nigger! He’s a nigger! A nigger, look, there’s a nigger!”

You can hear the crowd gasping, but he continued.

“They’re going to arrest me for calling a black man a nigger.”

After most of the audience left, he finally stopped. Michael’s rep would not comment on the issue.

I LUVed me some Kramer. WTF is his problem?! If ya gotta pull a Mel Gibson for press, no one's going to embrace your bigotry. Disgusting.
