The difference is nobody cares or comes to a black woman's defense when someone says crap like this. Black males won't even step up to the plate. If this tweet had been directed at a ww, all hell would have broken loose.

No, it wouldn't have. Just like stories of white guys being murdered by cops don't make national news.

For those of you saying this is a Twitter thing, it made national headlines all weekend. So not sure why folks are attacking the OP in this case. It was all in the news this weekend. Just because you don't use Twitter doesn't mean it's not news.

Because it started on Twitter.

IMO it is a sad thing today when social media posts become "news"

No one GAF what Tom Arnold says.

And just like Kanye "took up" for her, so did other people on Twitter, so this is just made up outrage on the part of the OP IMO, to as, I noted, want to say/do racist/misogynistic/"bad" things same as liberals.

Most "news" is not newsworthy today.

I think they mean it's nothing more than trash talking on Twitter.

This is true.

People need to wake up to the fact that the "news" is just trying to get people upset about stupid crap by showing stories they feel will be most polarizing.

I'll note, I'm not a liberal and don't like our current president but I especially don't watch the news today because I think they report too many stupid stories about him - someone mentioned the funeral thing recently (which I saw on FB) and that is stupid - presidents don't usually go to the funerals of first ladies. Also making a story about every single little thing he says, usually when I look it up it is out of context.

Folks need to step away from the media and especially quit being mad because your "side" you feel gets demonized. Both sides feel they are demonized by the other sides media so it is silly IMO to be upset about this.

Considering most news stories these days start from Tweets (aka Donald Trumps entire presidency), I agree. It is a sad thing.


And I don't think it's made up outrage, again, the story was all over the news this weekend.

Thing is: some men (no, ALL men) should stop saying stuff like this, why? because most people say this kind of things are not that attractive.

NOBODY wants to suck his whatever. NOBODY even wants to think about his whatever.

No one was outraged until it got to the media.

They "made" the story. The OP got outraged because he/she read the media story and feels he/she should be able to get away with saying misogynistic things too. It is very toddler-ish to me.

It is made up outrage IMO.

And as I agree with you on Trump. He is the main reason why I don't even watch the news anymore. They always want to talk about his tweets. It encourages people to get "outraged" about social media or think that Twitter is a source of news when it is not.

Other than typical hypocrisy, why is that?
No reason. RWNJ's are complete hypocrites.

Who in the world follows Tom Arnold on the twitter machine?

I have no idea what his political leanings are nor did I or do I care.

Twitter is full of insults for women of all races which is why I spend so little time there
