GLAAD Takes On Ja Rule's Taking On Of MTV'S 'GAY WAYS
Ja Rule caused a queer controversy when he blamed gay-friendly television for America's problems.
Speaking with Complex, the anti-homo musician insisted Congress should focus on MTV's homosexual "promotion," rather than rap lyrics. He went on: "Dating shows that’s showing two guys or two girls in mid-afternoon… If that’s not fucking up America, I don’t know what is."
In response to the scandalously nonsensical statement, GLAAD issued one of their own…
Via GLAAD's website:
No fair-minded person can look at Ja Rule’s interview with Complex Magazine and believe for one second that his children could be more harmed by what they might see on television than by the vulgarity and prejudice that comes out of their father’s mouth. Now that media have seen Ja Rule’s intolerance unmasked by his own words, they have a responsibility not to provide in the future a platform for his ugly, vulgar displays of prejudice.
We wonder what this will do - if anything - to the sales of the ridiculous rapper's new album, which comes out in November. Wait, does anyone still buy Ja Rule's records?

at least they are not demanding a faux - apology. GLAAD is learning (slowly… but still).
Where are Rev. Alice Sharpton and Jessie Ann Jackson?
This is a bit more offensive that nappy headed ho.
Glad that GLAAD is using a bit more terse vebiage in their releases.
There seems to be a double standard that must be corrected. Don Imus says something negative and meets with all parties concerned and is canned.
Issiah Washington says something negative, hires a gay publicist, kisses ass, then says something negative again and gets a new TV series.
These fuckwads should be kicked to the curb and left there to rot.

I am not saying he should have said those things. But those are the ideal things to say for a rapper with no career in need of some press.
Get dat press rollin'!
He knows his demographic!
Dont these rappers all have a tight affiliation with the lord?
What's with that?
Shoot who you will, jus dont fuck em!
I might jus read this bible and reinforce my interpretation of it……..
Watch this space fuckers!
Oh yeah, it must be the ass that got him like that!
Now if only I could find a way to not provide a platform for his ugly, vulgar face…
