Most liberals jump all over the use of certain trigger words such as the b-word, the n-word, etc, but they always give a pass to the rappers who use it constantly.

Most liberal are extremely upset about those they deem to be part of the "gun culture", but once again they will never denounce it when it's featured in rap songs, videos and album cover art.

Trump has some locker room banter in private, and he is the misogynistic creep of a lifetime, but when Hillary buddies up with a rapper with all sorts of misogyny lyrics, the rapper and Hillary get a pass.

The left constantly shriek about hate, but many rap songs are filled with violence and hatred. You don't hear the left denouncing it, but they went nuts when Trump blurred out the idea of punching someone.

The only time I've really heard the left condemn a rapper is when a rapper said he doesn't encounter racism.

Why is this?

I think a candidate for the Presidential office should be held to a higher standard than a rapper. Party affiliation or political views are irrelevant.

I highly doubt they use rap songs as material for their platform no more than conservatives use white supremacists as their advisers.

I hope Gloria Allred gets a shot at deposing Trump, the middle school bully, within the next year for sexually assaulting those 11 women.

Not sure who rappers get a pass from. Either you support their music or you don't. Peoe who don't agree with such language generally don't support their music.

Certain Rappers caught a lot of heat during the 90's for their music.

I have no issue with their language or anything like that, but I'm also not out shrieking about others using it.

The people who seem to be constantly offended by language and other things, never seem to be offended when rappers do it.

Once again, I'll point to how so many SJWs went ape crap when Trump said he'd punch someone and used misogynistic language in a private conversation.
