RUSH EXCERPT:

TYRUS: "You all are racist."
[Laughter]
TYRUS: "Every one of you. Now that we are all racist can we get back to the actual conversation? I don’t know what the four of them are complaining about anymore. When I was growing up I knew who the racist old man was on the corner of my street because he said very specific things to me when I stepped on the yard and usually centered around the pigmentation of my skin. And epitaph. Now if you tell somebody to leave it is racist. Because I remember talking to Ms. Baker about it used to be an American sleep slogan if you don’t like it you can leave love it or leave it. Now a 70 -year-old man from that era I made my save you don’t like the way I do things and you can leave. Racist. Where?"
