Highlights: Dr. Bernice King is no stranger to watching people on social media use her father’s legacy to score a point. But this time, she’d clearly had enough of it.

On Wednesday, the daughter of the late-civil rights icon, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called out comedian Amy Schumer for implying that he would have supported Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip.

    Wow that’s a surprisingly intelligent response from the artist who said “That’s not fraud. That’s uh, false advertising.” While on video when talking about about the Fyre Festival, in which he helped defraud investors and customers.

    Then again, he was also never charged with fraud and has since dodged huge lawsuits for restitution, so maybe he isn’t that stupid… That’s a scary thought.

    Edit: This is satire guys.

      Wait shit, I can’t tell if you’re joking. In case you’re not, Ja hasn’t actually commented on Israel/Palestine that I know of. Much like the Lorax speaks for the trees, I speak for Ja Rule.

        In that case I would like to speak with THE LORAX. I know he’s more like MF DOOM. All caps when you spell the man’s name.

        Or if you could put me in touch with whoever speaks for Levi’s jeans. I have a bone to pick.
