^ All of this. What Clarkson has said doesn't come close to who the BBC kept on after they abused kids.

For once in my life I agree with Katie Hopkins when she said firing Jeremy is a bit like hanging the Queen.

Hitler was brilliant for the German economy, there was 0% unemployment under Hitler, so he must have deserved to stay as the leader, I mean being anti-Semitic, homophobic and racist aren't that important when you get to the financial side of things right?

This has been blown way out of proportion. He did punch a guy, yes, he did behave like a child, yes, but that doesn't make him some kind of ultimate scumbag.
I'm willing to bet that most of you like some music/movie stars with a much darker past. Compared to them Clarkson is a saint.

I am of the opinion that barring a good apology from Clarkson, he shouldn't host at the moment. He at least did the decent thing and reported himself. Top Gear got me through some hard times, and I hope it continues, with Clarkson and a good apology. I don't appreciate violence in the workplace, but if the aggressor shows reasonable remorse, then they should be allowed to to continue working within probation.

The pros are by far outweighed by the cons in this situation. As much as a love the show I am glad that Clarkson has been sacked. He was right when he said he was a dinosaur and that they no longer have a place in this world. Pros: Loves Cars, Witty, Opinionated. Cons: Bigot, Racist, Violent (has a history of getting into a "fracas"), Misogynist, Boorish, Bully, Selfish But the thing that annoys me the most, is that Clarkson is no working man hero like many claim him to be. He is as elitist as they come. He eats posh dinners at posh restaurants, lives in a country pad and counts David Cameron as his chum. Nothing wrong in any of these at all (he's earned his money by working hard, I respect that), except for the fact that he portrays himself as a working class commoner come good and people are suckered in to this act. Truth be told, he'd not even give the time of day to the majority of the "downtrodden, white working class British men" who have all jumped to his defense. We're all just too common and he'd probably punch us if we got in way of his fast car or didn't fetch him his hot dinner.

You're comparing Hitler and Clarkson haha really? The guy like slipped up by saying the 'n' word in a commonly spoken rhyme for people his age and made a few jokes that people got offended about. Comparing him to a guy who gassed 6 million Jews is making me laugh. Better than whatever my family is watching on TV now. This whole thing has been really blown out of proportion by the media which is what the BBC wants as it gives them some backing as people will always believe what's said in the papers and on TV.

I'm not saying Jeremy Clarkson is as bad as Hitler, but I am saying that if you think you can say that people can get away with being a despicable person because they make loads of money, by your logic Hitler should be forgiven.
