"I am certain he would call for Israel's bombing of Palestinians to cease, for hostages to be released, and for us to work for true peace." wrote King.
Highlights: Dr. Bernice King is no stranger to watching people on social media use her father’s legacy to score a point. But this time, she’d clearly had enough of it.
On Wednesday, the daughter of the late-civil rights icon, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called out comedian Amy Schumer for implying that he would have supported Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip.
Wait, is there some political figure named Amy Schumer or are we actually talking about Amy "my vagina" Schumer, the least funny female comedian since Lisa "I love big black cock" Lamponelli?
Please don't read me wrong. I fucking love Jean Garofolo, Maria Bamford, Joan Rivers, Taylor Tomlinson, Ali Wong, Wanda Sykes, Mae Martin... I just cant fathom why people would care about the white female version of Carlos Mencia's take on a war?
I'd rather hear Michelle Wolf's opinions on something of this nature, since politics is at least her wheelhouse, but I still wouldnt really take a lot of stock in thos opinions; she's a comedian. Well informed, yes, but an actual bonafide comedian.
She made a post on Twitter, which millions of people do every day. She wasn't standing on a soap box in the Town Square. This headline is a major exaggeration of what she said, even.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. All this discussion about her's is just a chance to start up the Amy Schumer hate train again.
