Sarah Palin's Daughter Uses Homophobic Slurs

Hey, I am not saying the terms aren't juvenile. They just are not some big hateful slurs. It's petty teenage insulting that a large majority of teens partake in. A teen calling something "so gay" or anything like that is a newsstory? I don't care how famous the person is; it's ridiculous.

You're being an apologist for ignorance.

You can stick your tongue out at me all you want but common sense has nothing to do with listening to people your age use words that are slurs and then throw up your hands and say, “what’s the big deal? Boys will be boys wink nudge wink nudge.” I’m not making a big deal about it either. I didn’t say they should be suspended from school or made to work in an AIDS clinic. I said they’re ignorant. Because they are.

Yep, got that right.

Bottom Line? Um no, that is your OPINION and nothing more. And Obama doesn't use cliff notes cause he has a nice teleprompter that he reads and cannot function well without. I brought him up merely to show the double standards when it comes to poor grammar/speechgiving/having to read something.

And I doubt you'd ever see his daughters in the news cause the media only gives the Palin's the colonoscopy. If his daughters did that, you'd never be told. Of course seeing as they probably don't have FB accounts yet due to their age, it's a moot comparison.

The real bottom line is that people can't find real things to stone the Palin's with, so they nitpick whatever they can. Yeah, Willow talked fowly on Facebook in improper grammar, like every other teenager in modern America. Forums and Facebook aren't known for proper grammar by ANYBODY; internet slang is commonplace nowadays. And they say when all else fails, attack grammar.

Willow didn't do anything wrong and I think everyone knows it too. They just have some uncanny hatred for her mother that they are willing to hate her for whatever they can make stick. Plenty of other people have used much more offensive language and it doesn't even show up on the radar. People just wanna hate on the Palin's; she exposes them for who they really are. The ironic thing is that if it weren't for people who nitpick anything and everything the Palin's do, they'd have faded into obscurity a long time ago. Everytime I turn on the newsfeeds, there's something new about the Palins and it most often has absolutely NOTHING to do with anything. It's as if the liberals secretly lust after this family.

Just like you'd have no problem if she slurred against Catholics? :rme:

If she actually said something homophoic, I'd be the first to criticize her. Some people just like to use nothing as an excuse to justify their own prejudices and that's all this Willow debacle is.
