Just days after the Coeur d’Alene Tribe of American Indians canceled Ted Nugent's appearance at their casino in Idaho, the Puyallup Tribe in Washington announced they'd be canceling two of his concerts as well. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy. Nugent hasn't seemed to figure out yet that you reap what you sow.
Tacoma casino cancels Nugent shows, citing racism:
Read MoreTACOMA, Wash. -- Emerald Queen Casino will cancel two Ted Nugent concerts that were scheduled August 2 and 3 over allegations of racist remarks by the singer.
Puyallup Tribe officials said the decision came after learning that Nugent has said racist remarks.
"The first amendment gives people the right free speech, but I think racism is intolerable and not acceptable here," said Puyallup Tribal Council Vice President Lawrence W. LaPointe. "We’ve been getting lots of complaints from the community and other organizations."
"I don’t want to take away his right to say what he wants to say, but we don’t need it here."
