Dog Chapman spoke out to Fox News’ Hannity & Colmes on Tuesday night. It was his first public interview to discuss his racist telephone rant that was taped by his son, Tucker, and sold to the National Enquirer for $15,000.

“I thought that I was cool enough in the black world to be able to use that word as a brother to a brother. I’m not. I didn’t really know until three or four days ago what that meant to black people.”

“There’s a special connection that I thought I had between me and black America. And I used to say, ‘I’m black, too.’
“In other words, my whole life I’ve been called a half-breed, a convict, king of the trailer trash, this and that…so when I stood there and said, ‘I kind of know what you feel like, because I’ve been there, too,’ that I felt that I could embrace and like, as brothers…say the word.”

“I now learned I’m not black at all, and I never did it out of hate,” Chapman continued. “This sounds so stupid. I always did it out of love. Other white guys would be like, ‘Boy, who does Dog think he is? Dog can say that.’ And black guys would be with me and walk with me and respect me.

“So, I went too far with that.”

I could kill myself and people would forgive me, I would do that. I said on the way here, “I hope no one died thinking I meant that word before I got here. I must come out.”

Yeah, whateva, Duane. Thoughts on this?

    The comment that Dog made stating “I thought that I was cool enough in the black world to be able to use that word as a brother to a brother. I’m not. I didn’t really know until three or four days ago what that meant to black people.” is absolutey full of BS!!!

    Listen again people to his conversation with his son ( ) & you tell me truly if he thought he was cool enough in the black world to use that word or if he is a true racist that everyone sees him as! He knew exactly what he was saying, he knew that he was hurting his son by saying it, which is why he said it on more than one occasion in such a hurtful & racist way; and he will continue to say it because that’s WHO HE IS!!!!

    You gotta come with something better than that if you really want people to believe you “Brother”!

    There is no connection that people of color have with you, oh so now your suicidal??? That’s not going to take away all of the shame that you have brought on yourself & your family! Kudos to your son for bringing the true DOG to light & exposing you for the Racist you truly are!

    BOYCOTT DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER SHOW!
