Rapper T.I.: “It’s Un-American, Oversensitive For Gays To Shut Down Every Anti-Gay Slur”

Man, I will say this, the funniest joke I ever heard Tracy (Morgan) say during a stand-up was, ‘C’mon man, I think gay people are too sensitive. If you can take a dick, you can take a joke.’ [Cracks up laughing.] That shit was funny to me. And it’s kind of true.

“They’re like,‘If you have an opinion against us, we’re gonna shut you down.’ … That’s not American. If you’re gay you should have the right to be gay in peace, and if you’re against it you should have the right to be against it in peace.”

– Rapper T.I. speaking to VIBE magazine about how gay oversensitivity affects free speech. T.I. says he supports anyone’s sexual preference and once produced a song called “Big Shit Poppin’ (Do It)”.
