About Kanye West.

My response to Kanye is not anger or even disappointment. People do crazy things for no reason all the time. The fact that he's an influential public figure blows his mistakes out of the water. I'm not making excuses for him but I'm not going to judge his mental stability or personal choices, either. The man's got passion and, unlike a majority of Americans, wasn't taught to sit down and shut up. His anger at whatever injustice is occurring around him causes him to fall victim to tourette's, a general diarrhea of the mouth.

It was a little sad watching Taylor Swift have her glory moment snuffed out but this incident will do her more good than harm since she didn't throw a tantrum and even continued with a performance of her award-winning song later on. I haven't found a decent video to attach here but I'm sure if you have at least one working eye, you've seen news coverage of Kanye's interruption.

My Grandpa Jones always tells me to use pity as a road to love whenever I come across someone who's...difficult. Difficult to love, difficult to understand, difficult to forgive. I pity Kanye. And Serena. Racists and hardcore republicans. (I can't say "republicans" in general because a lot of my family consider themselves right-wing and they're not bad people.)
