Gay Conservative

Conservatives decry rape, regardless of the circumstances, as a horrible crime, and the perpetrators as animals.

Liberals call the victims “hookers” and defend the perps:

Author Gore Vidal says he refuses to feel any sympathy for Roman Polanski’s rape victim, whom he dubs a “hooker.”

In an interview with The Atlantic, the controversial 83-year-old author of such books as “Myra Breckinridge” and “1876” says of the director’s sex scandal, “I really don’t give a [expletive]. Look am I going to sit and weep every time a young hooker feels as though she’s being taken advantage of?”

The young woman to whom he is referring is Samantha Geimer, who was a 13-year-old aspiring model in 1977 when she was drugged and raped by Polanski.

Vidal went on to say that the media pushed an inaccurate image of Geimer, painting her as an innocent victim as opposed to what he believes to be her true identity.

Liberals attacked Clinton’s accusers in a similar fashion, stopping just short of calling them hookers. Instead, they attacked their looks; one was called “a woman with big hair from the trailer park,” while another was maligned for the size of her nose. None of the libs who defended Clinton by attacking the victims could bring a shred of real evidence to prove Clinton was innocent. The Bar responded the way Congress refused to: they disbarred the pathetic disgrace for a human being.

Playboy writers published a disgusting list recently–the top ten women they’d love to “hate rape.” Every single one of them were conservatives, among them Michelle Malkin, Mary Katherine Ham and FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly (whom I’d have a total crush on if she weren’t straight!).

Polanski fled the US in 1978 after pleading guilty to drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl. He’s currently in custody in Switzerland awaiting extradition. Now we’ve got Gore Vidal defending him, blaming the conviction on anti-semitism and calling the victim a hooker to absolve his friend of his sins.

I hate to tell you this, folks, but rape is rape. Even if your victim is perceived to be a prostitute (or actually is one), it’s still rape. The instant that person says NO and you don’t obey, guess what? It’s rape. No questions asked. And a 13-year-old girl? Does anybody really have any delusions that she could have consented to sex with anyone, much less a grown man who had fed her drugs?

Mr. Vidal, you’re a sick man, a sad caricature of all that’s wrong with our society. If one of my friends had done something like this I would denounce him and dump him without hesitation. You should do the same.

(WARNING: if you are easily offended by foul language, avoid the section in italics. I’m putting the lyrics on this post to make a point, and since I guarantee your kids are listening to it, if you’re still in denial, just skip it.)

At work yesterday, I made mention that there were a few specific rappers that I had no respect for and, in fact, would not mind a tussle with because of my profound distaste for them. When I said this, at least three of my coworkers expressed their shock and asked why I so deeply disliked rappers like Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z and 50 Cent.

I’ll first let their words speak for themselves:

“Yo what up, this murder def kill homicide nigga/I got two freaks/yo, watch yo fuckin’ mouth, man…” -Jay Z, “1-900-Hustler”

“I went to your house/Your girl came in and started cussing you out/You should have slapped her/In her face/I wanted to tell you, but it wasn’t my place/I kept it on the low ’cause I know you/Was gonna check that hoe…this is what you made me do/I really didn’t wanna put hands on you/But bitch you playin’ with fire/I’m so sick and tired/Of loud-mouth bitches like you…” -Snoop Dogg, “Can U Control Yo Hoe”

I could post this garbage all day. I cannot stand today’s popular “rap.” It’s not real music, and the lyrics are nothing–literally nothing–but hate, violence, drugs, misogyny and murder. There is no saving grace to any of these so-called artists. There is no excusing them, not for any reason–and saying, “it’s the best they can do for themselves” is a cop-out.

We have heard activists both black and white (the white ones being bleeding-heart liberals) talk about how black kids don’t get a fair shake. They’re locked out of a life because they can’t get an education, they can’t get jobs, and nobody will give them a chance. Poor, poor thugs; they’re just living the life that was handed to them. We can’t expect them to be better because we haven’t allowed them to be better.

It’s not just black kids. And it’s not just the poor ones. If you’re going to argue that it’s the poor black kids who are put upon, though, then look no further than their idols. Cretins like 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Jay Z, Snoop Dogg, and other rappers make a thug’s life a dream to be attained, not something to be avoided like the plague. Hell, Snoop Dogg released “Blue Carpet Treatment” as homage to his gang set: the Rollin’ 20′s Crips. They glorify pushing drugs on kids, shooting rival gang members, maiming people, murdering them, raping women, beating women–and it’s all acceptable. The kids eat it up because society has told them that it’s okay to want what they’ve got. It doesn’t help that some of the cops tasked with cleaning up the mess from these mini-thugs are into this drivel, too. I know a few, and it’s a characteristic I’ve made well-known I have no respect for.

Rap is the low-class culture committing suicide. It’s an entire group of people saying, “we don’t care, we just want what we can get, even if we have to take it.” How will troubled black kids learn any better with this kind of leadership? How will ANY of the kids who idolize these monsters learn the difference between right and wrong with their heroes graying the lines for them? Yes, it is a travesty that blacks make up a majority of the prison inmate population in America. I will agree with that. But it’s not racism that’s the problem. It’s the tacit refusal to grow up. The culture is killing itself by embracing the thug life.

Shelby Steele, a prominent black conservative writer (and one of my heroes), said this: “We then think that our whole future depends on keeping whites feeling guilty and keeping them on the hook. The more we protest, the more dependent we become, the weaker we become. We’re weaker today than we were in the nineteen-fifties.”

I think that has a lot to do with those placed on a pedestal, those bastions of the “good life” quoted above. Look no further than your own mirror, folks, for killing your own culture.
