Never ones to pass up an opportunity to stoke furor for the sake of stoking furor, Fox News has once again drawn the ire of the hip-hop community. This time, frequent incendiary Laura Ingraham decided the death of rapper and community activist   Nipsey Hussle   was funny, and now a number of prominent people are calling for her to be fired.

On Saturday, the Fox host used a segment of her   The Ingraham Angle   to disparage the late MC less than 24 hours after   the memorial procession . With an offensively unsubtle air of disrespect, she talked of the “thousands” who lined the streets to say goodbye to Nipsey. Keeping the sardonic tone, she said, “Now, this dear artist recently released a song called “FDT” — eff Donald Trump.”

Two things: One, that track’s from 2016. It was a protest song released while the Donald was still just threatening to become the most unqualified president in history, not actually being it. Second, it’s not Nipsey Hussle’s song, it’s   YG ’s. In fact, the clip Ingraham proceeded to play on the show didn’t feature Nipsey at all, either on vocals or on screen.

The segment rolled on with more misinformation and actual laughter from both Ingraham and contributor Raymond Arroyo about a rising entrepreneur, loving father, and a vital member of the South Los Angeles community. The outrage was almost immediate, with   The Game   leading the charge in a call for Fox to fire Ingraham.

Sharing a clip of Ingraham’s remarks, The Game wrote, “@foxnews fires this disrespectful cunt by tomorrow, Monday morning or you will lose millions of viewers one person at a time until it drastically effects your ratings, views etc… if our demographic doesn’t effect that we will STOP support of ALL SPONSORS immediately.” He added,

“This is not a game & my brothers untimely demise has noticeably shifted the world & brought people from all ethnicity’s together in mourning. There is a power in that, that will be used & action will be taken from now going forward. We will not be accepting any apology from her… we want her fired, PERIOD !!!!!  #TheMarathonContinues   8be2beed55b1548e967ef785fad4e732

As of Monday, Ingraham still has a show and has yet to acknowledge the backlash against her, but others have shared their voices.   Snoop Dogg   commented on The Game’s initial post with a simple, “I’m in.”   T.I.   shared the video on his own Instagram, calling Ingraham and Arroyo “vile despicable, poor excuses for people.” He continued, “Neither of you WILL EVER know or experience the level of love, appreciation and respect that Nip has… EVEN IN DEATH!!! So let that sizzle in ya lil hateful, demonic spirits.”

R&B singer   Tank   linked to   a petition   calling for Ingraham to be fired; as of this writing, over 36,000 people have signed on. “Disrespecting the deceased is not news!” he wrote. “It’s just disrespect!”

Ingraham has gained a reputation for saying really stupid, offensive things about minorities and tragic situations. She called LeBron James “ignorant” for expressing his opinions on Trump and told him to   “shut up and dribble.”   She said detention centers holding immigrant children were   “essentially summer camps.”   Her   taunting   of Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg actually led to some repercussions when the young man retaliated by getting a number of sponsors to   cut ties   with her show. We’ll see if her vitriol against a beloved artist and community leader brings her any more shame.

Nipsey Hussle was shot and   killed   on March 31st, reportedly while   getting clothes   from his own Marathon store to give a friend who’d recently   gotten out of jail . (The man was also shot and is currently   facing charges of parole violation   for being with Nip that day.) A man named Eric Holder   has been charged   with the crime and   pled not guilty   after retaining for O.J. Simpson prosecutor Christopher Darden. Former president Barack Obama, Kendrick Lamar, JAY-Z, and others   spoke Thursday at Nipsey’s memorial service   at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. A day later, the LA city council unanimously voted to   rename the intersection   of Crenshaw and West Slauson Avenue, feet from where Nipsey was murdered, Ermias “Nipsey Hussle” Asghedom Square.

Yep, here again is the old tried and sometimes true Democrat way...trying to silence anyone they don't agree with. Attempt to censor them or get them fired. Laura was simply telling the truth, some disagree. Tough!

We should always fire everyone who doesn't agree with liberals.  Then we can get on to firing liberals who aren't liberal enough. 

Only then can we have purity......

One of the interesting things about the French Revolution is seeing that play out with a guillotine involved.

Yesterday's left wing heroes became today's sacrifice to Madame Guillotine.

Don't worry about Ingraham.  The FOX bots need their 'fantasy flower girl.'  Besides, her leg shots are better than Hannity's and Carlson's combined.

Nipsey was black and had tattoos.  The old FOX farts need something to...………….whatever it is they do.
