Rapper Azelia Banks' Twitter exchange with Sarah Palin Wednesday ended in her suggesting the conservative politician be gang-raped. Banks' callous comment came after she mistook a satire as authentic. In the fictional piece, the writer says Palin believes "African-Americans accepted slavery willingly." Banks may have read the story as fact, but that doesn't justify her cruelty toward Palin. Her bizarre apology did little to smooth things over and her comments deserve to be condemned.
Many key feminist groups, however, have yet to speak up.....
My Take - I've come to the conclusion Palin is a bit of a loon politically, but I also believe she's a good person and she and her family have been shamefully assulted mercilessly by these crude, ignorant leftists and they're ill informed, misinformed and stupid fellow travellers on the order of Azelia Banks. I hope Palin rejects this serf-serving non-apology and goes forth with her suit. As for the argument Banks just made a mistake - horsepucky - and in spite of her claim, "I am an EXTREMELY intelligent woman", her actions demonstrate she's rude, crude and stupid, and using the excuse .
What decent person would act in such a way.
