From Knight-Ridder:
If Osama bin Laden ever buys a rap album, he’ll probably start with a CD by KRS-One.
The hip-hop anarchist has declared his solidarity with al-Qaida by asserting that he and other African-Americans “cheered when 9-11 happened,” reports the New York Daily News.
The rapper, real name Kris Parker, defiled the memory of those who died in the terrorist attacks as he spouted off at a recent New Yorker Festival panel discussion.
“I say that proudly,” the Boogie Down Productions founder went on, insisting that, before the attack, security guards kept Blacks out of the World Trade Center “because of the way we talk and dress.
“So when the planes hit the building, we were like, ‘Mmmm – justice.’ ”
The atrocity of 9-11 “doesn’t affect us the hip-hop community,” he said. “9-11 happened to them, not us,” he added, explaining that by “them” he meant “the rich … those who are oppressing us. RCA or BMG, Universal, the radio stations.”
Parker also sneered at efforts by other rappers to get young people to vote.
“Voting in a corrupt society adds more corruption,” he added. “America has to commit suicide if the world is to be a better place.”
Now then, which do you suppose will happen to the man who publicly called for the US to destroy itself:
A) Parker will be taken away during the night by jackbooted thugs and sent to a concentration camp, or
B) sell lots of records and buy a new BMW M5?
And this is a fascist country in need of destruction?
