Clarkson is like a one-man Charlie Hebdo machine. Doesn't discriminate when it comes to off-putting comments, no matter how bloody offensive. But it's entertainment, so it's funny. Personally, even if he made a comment about ME, I'd laugh.
In the meantime... Clarkson's just gonna do what Clarkson always does:
Reading this list made me realize how much I love Jezza. Brilliant man. "Taking offense" to something is no reason to make any retaliation whatsoever, even the request of an apology. Nobody cares that your 'feelings' got hurt, and they shouldn't. Man/Woman up.
Top Gear's infamous U.S. special involved them driving through deeply conservative rural Alabama with "Hillary for President," "Man-love rules OK," and "NASCAR sucks" painted on their cars.
