Ice-T Calls Rush Limbaugh ‘A Racist Piece Of Sh–‘ On Twitter
Forget famous rap beefs. Soon, it’s going to become commonplace for famous rappers to size-up political pundits. Ice-T and Rush Limbaugh have engaged in their own tête-à-tête, with the famous rapper/actor taking to Twitter to call Limbaugh a “racist piece of sh–.”
It all started when Ice-T defended gun ownership in an interview following the tragic shootings at the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado. Ice-T called the 2nd Amendment “the last form of defense against tyranny,” maintaining that it is seminal and crucial to what makes the U.S. what it is. Conservative radio pundit Rush Limbaugh praised Ice-T for his stance on the issue, but took a cheap shot at the rapper, saying he was surprised that Ice-T knows the definition of the word “tyrrany,” according to the Huffington Post.
“He knew the word ‘tyranny,'” Limbaugh said. “And he knows that tyranny comes from government representatives. Double impressive.”
Ice-T didn’t like that. Not. One. Bit. He Tweeted “Rush Limbaugh said he was impressed I knew the word ‘tyranny,” distancing himself from the controversial Rush. “He’s a racist piece of s—.”
In what MTV News calls a move “making it clear he wanted nothing to do with the conservative television and radio establishment,” Ice-T then posted a link to a NewsOne article titled “Top 10 Racist Limbaugh Quotes.”
After that, he advised anyone who likes Limbaugh or Fox News pundit Bill O’Reilly to “UNFOLLOW now,” reports Politico.
