A Big Bigot In The Land of The Little People

Normal-sized son in reality TV family is racist gay-basher on Myspace
blog

Enquirer Exclusive:

There's a nasty little secret behind the TV show Little People, Big
World.
Series star Jeremy James Roloff -- who preaches with his family about
diversity and tolerance - is a racist gay-basher and hypocrite, charge
outraged sources.

Three of the six members of the Roloff family - including parents Matt
and Amy and Jeremy's fraternal twin brother Zach - are dwarves, and
they often give lectures about the importance of being sensitive to
others.

The Roloff family wrote a book titled "Little Family, Big Values:
Lessons in Love, Respect and Understanding for Families of Any Size."

But what most fans don't know is that 18-year-old Jeremy commonly uses
derogatory and racist language - and The Enquirer has some of his
Myspace blogs to prove it.

The show is a complete disgrace," a childhood friend of Jeremy told
The Enquirer.

"The Roloffs give speeches about respecting all minority groups, yet
their own son uses racial slurs and mocks gay people all the time."

Although many of Jeremy's offensive comments have since been deleted,
The Enquirer obtained transcripts and online video grabs, which
confirm his shocking remarks. Among them:

*"Bud, lets get it on during spring break sometime, are u in that
beaner place called mexico all spring break?"

*"Jake, u make me gay...ha. k get back to me *beep* N-word)"

*Shute dog *beep* (N-word), i thought u were starting to play, sheeit
man...we have an asian section at our school now..."

Soon after The Enquirer began its investigation, Jeremy's Myspace went
"private, restricting access to the public.

"I don't think Jeremy is malicious or hateful - just ignorant," said
the friend.

"In spite of those values his parents are trying to instill in him,
he's being raised in a very sheltered world, and is not surrounded by
a lot of minorities.

"But that's no excuse for the things he says...for being a
hypocrite."

Dr. Boyce Watkins, a Syracuse University professor and leading
commentator on African-American issues told The Enquirer:

"This kid needs to realize the damage he's doing. He needs to think
about what he said about minorities and gay people, and he needs to
remember how he feels the next time someone calls his mom a midget. I
learned from watching their show that 'midget', is a derogatory term
and that they want to be called 'little people.'

"If you want people to be sensitive to your needs, then you have to
show sensitivity to the world around you."
