Orlando Jones: Liberals Should Kill Sarah Palin

[The Northerner]

Orlando Jones may be best known for his days as a comedic TV pitchman. This latest suggestion, though, is no laughing matter.

The former soda slinger who spent years telling people to "Make 7 Up Yours" fired off a series of tweets on October 22nd following the death of deposed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi. After discussing Kanye West's trip to Occupy Wall Street, Jones wrote, "Libyan Rebels kill Gaddafi, if American liberals want respect they better stop listening to Aretha & kill Sarah Palin(:"

Smiley face or not, Jones received a number of angry tweets in response to his comment, and responded to a number of them a day after his initial remark.

...

When @tn4p, whose full user name is Tennessee 4 Palin, called the statement violent, he wrote, "I regret to inform you that jokes do not qualify as violent rhetoric. your angry reaction and response however, does(: keep smiling." When the user then compared his statements with those that could have inspired the shooting of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, he followed it up by saying, "Actually, I don't think it's just a joke is an apropo response. If my tweets are so upsetting to you please do not read them(:"

1. Ass.

Obviously has been out of the spotlight too long for his taste. Not the way to get attention, shit-for-brains.

[gratuitous]

2. Liberals don't need to kill Sarah Palin

Politically speaking, it would just be interrupting her. And interrupting people is rude.

What a fucking dumbass.

6. Too late to walk it back.

As They Might Be Giants said: "Can't shake the Devil's hand and say you're only kidding."

And why would liberals want to kill a gift that keeps on giving like Sarah Palin?

9. Fools!

in the words of Obi Wan Kenobi, "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."

Alive, Sarah Palin is an albatross of embarrassment the GOP wears around its neck. Her word salads comprise some of the best side dishes the Democrats could ask for. She's quite the asset, actually.

Dead by the hand of a liberal, she'd surely become a martyr for the far right, "justifying" all manner of retributive violence on their part.

Killing her, or even attempting to do so, would be by far one of the stupidest things any liberal could do.
