People world over were stunned last week when a former Colorado student went on a devastating killing spree at the Aurora, Colorado premiere of The Dark Knight Rises. Now, it looks like Ice-T’s take on the aftermath of the tragedy has led to a feud between he and conservative radio show host Rush Limbaugh.
According to XXL, Ice-T told a London news network that despite the incident, he doesn’t plan on giving up his arms. He said that he feels it’s every citizen’s right to protect themselves against oppressive governmental forces.
“Well, I’ll give up my gun when everyone else does,” he said. “If there were guns here, would you want to be the only person without one? The right to bear arms is because that’s the last form of defense against tyranny.”
Limbaugh took umbrage with Ice-T’s comments, saying, “He knew the word ‘tyranny,’ and he knows that tyranny comes from government representatives. Double impressive.”
Now, Ice-T took to Twitter earlier today to issue his response to Limbaugh’s slights. The west coast legend called him “a racist piece of shit,” and said that Limbaugh may want to check his credentials as lecturer at some of the country’s top universities before he challenges him again.

wow
opinionguy2011. com
my boy ice-t speakin da truth. he skooling dat fat ass honkey.
Why do people feel the need to respond to rush limbaugh or bill o’reilly, or ann culter or whomever?…None of these people are racist, none of them care about half of the stuff they talk about…They just say crazy shit for attention. When you keep responding back to them you’re only making them more famous and putting money in their pockets. They’re trolls…Ignore them and they will go away.
Real talk, you hit the nail squarely on the head….
thats real shit they playing to racist that want to hear them say shit like this haha most of them are educated more than they try to appear. they pay it down for money.
I been rocking with this dude since, since “Cop Killer”….while his acting skills remain questionable, Ice T is growing into quite the activist…..Thumbs way up…..
Then you got in late…he was already falling off by the time cop killer came out. You need to go back to Power or O.G.
ICE- T right no-one wanna say shit fuck this hip-hop gay shit put that real social concious shit on
FUCK ICE-T, the fag of the rap game. Dumbass rapist.
i know your not really rush but ice-t is on point
Tell em’ how it is Ice, fuck limbaugh wish somebody would catch him on the street and do America a favor by beating the degenerates ass.
if you don’t think Rush is in the KKK or part of some Elitist group you’re jiving…
Lemme drop some knowledge. There are two types of Republicans. There are the normal ones who believe in small government and want businesses to do what they do best, which is profit, grow and create jobs. And then there are the crazy racist doucebags like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck. I prefer the normal ones.
this just shows how stupid you are. Glenn Beck is far from a racist. but you wouldn’t know cuz you never listened to his show..you just feed into what the liberal media tells you. Just like obama was gonna bring change…so you prob went out and voted for him. and little did you know he only made things worst for the american people.
Define worse?
* i can feel the “two types of republicans” idea, what i don’t like is when the “normal” ones do not speak out against the douchebags…too many “normal” ones get quiet at the wrong times
* also, you don’t have to listen/watch someone’s show to discover that they are racist…just watch interviews on conservative, moderate and liberal media outlets–thats like saying “you never watched Mel Gibson’s movies so you can’t call him anti-semetic” people are STOOPID
Not all Republicans are racist.
Limbaugh can eat a dick, he’s an ignorant bigot and no better than any other white supremacist.
I love how if you say anything about black people that isn’t praising them its racist…smh get over yourselves. The only thing holding black people back is themselves. They kill each other everyday…just throw on a rick ross cd and this is what is “cool” in the black culture. I want black people to make it in america but when i see fuckery i call it out. thats what Rush does. Personally I do think he is racist behind closed doors but thats only an opinion and can not be factually proven. unless you buy into the liberal media.
Everybody kills everybody everyday, black, white, red or yellow so what is your point? Let’s not sit here and pretend that the black culture is the only self destructive culture around here. There’s a difference between “real talk” and being slighted. And Rush Limbaugh has repeatedly slighted minorities all together for as long as I care to remember. Come down off your pulpit. Everybody is guilty of fuckery so stop your social profiling.
CO-SIgn Up North (F*CK trooth)
* a white guy walks into a crowded theater and kills mostly white people and you are going to make it seem as if blacks are the only race that have killed within their own????
* he has said multiple racist/bigoted/sexist comments
damn people i hope you realize ice t’s words are wisdom. especially in the u.s. where were about to sink even deeper into tyranny. he did law and order cause its just acting and pays him mad loot, he’s always been a wise, open minded dude, he is mad right now and he should be. even you fools who diss ice- he is defending your dumb asses too.DONT LET THE CORRUPT MEDIA/GOVERNMENT EVER FOOL YOU INTO THINKING THAT GUNZ ARE THE PROBLEM. THE CORRUPT SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO CREATE CHAOS AND DEATH. GUNZ ARE THE BEST DEFENSE- ALL DUE RESPECT- LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAYVON MARTIN (A GOOD PERSON KILLED BY CORRUPT EVIL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYED PIGS)- GUNZ DONT KILL- HUMAN EMOTIONS AND IGNORANCE KILL. DO THE RESEARCH ON HOW MUCH GOOD GUNZ CAN DO BEFORE YOU ASSUME HOW BAD THEY ARE.
Treyvon Martin wasn’t killed by ‘corrupt evil government employed pigs’. George Zimmerman is just a regular citizen who lived in a state that has looser gun laws than other states.
Ice-T is the fakest rapper ever. Who cares what this dumbass nigga gotta say. It’s all mumbo jumbo coming from his loud ass mouth.
silly girl dont know what she says. ice is one of the realest. you must be a robot hired by the c.i.a.
Fuck u limaugh! and die u racist motherfucker die, die, die slowly!!! P.S. Much love and big respect for Ice-T for keepin’ it real.
“I love how people are soooo SHOCKED to hear something thought provoking said by a rapper.. Hip Hop has changed to POP .. Nobody says shit.”
ICE-T IS KEEPIN IT REAL! FUCK ALL YOU HATERS! FUCK LIL WAYNE FANS! FUCK RICK ROSS FANS! FUCK 2 CHAINZ FANS! FUCK SKINNY JEANZ NIGGAS! FUCK POP NIGGAS! FUCK R&B NIGGAS! FUCK HIPSTER NIGGAS! FUCK YOU TOO!
dude is playing to his racist following what you can say.
he is telling the racist white folks we are all idiots.
if we were that would ignore us completely and they dont.
i love ice t but hope if keep open people up to shit it dont wind up getting him killed. haha but dude is street foster child that made it that far so i’am sure he dont care haha
Ice is a real cool guy, he had some interesting shit to say in this recent interview i found of his http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lulkfchKEtk&feature=plcp
Why do you buy into this garbage, this is such a big stage show being put on for yall!!
What we have here is Ice T is AFRAID that Rush Limbaugh COMPLIMENTED and PRAISED his point of view! Listen to the clip yourself, link below. A rapper agreeing with Conservative Constitutional principles and Rush Limbaugh on the 2nd Amendment? That rapper’s career is DESTROYED! So now Ice T has to restore his credibility and viciously attack Rush, and the media PR is in full swing to get back his reputation! Dont you know? Black people in America can’t have divergent views! They must fall in line with Party and Ideology or they are slandered as race traitors and Uncle Toms! CONFORM to Big Government Statism, or Else the Party will be knocking at your door!
The battle cry of the LEFT is TRUST the government, Government is GOOD, Government should do MORE for us in our lives.
Yet this is not what Ice T said. He articulated small government Conservative/Libertarian views. Government is a necessary evil per Thomas Paine and Rush Limbaugh and now Ice T, a potential source of tyranny.
Hiphopdx quotes the compliement correctly, yet frames it as an insult, just as Ice T would want them to to protect his career: “DOUBLE IMPRESSIVE”. A major cultural figure articulating such viewpoints is rare and the way in which Ice T, who most might think would be another shallow celebrity, said it brilliantly, DOUBLE IMPRESSIVE.
The only thing Rush mocks is the whole absurd concept of up tight white media types asking serious questions to Ice T dressed up while he dons his full gangsta rap persona. Hilarious. Not racist.
Yall never listen to his show if you think hes a racist. Rush’s long time friend and head producer and call screener for decades is a conservative African American, James Golden aka Snerdly, who Rush converses with daily on the show. Snerdly was appointed Official Criticizer of of the President, cuz he is “certified black enough to critize” lmao.
Condescending: 1.Acting in a way that betrays a feeling of patronizing superiority.
* Rush saying he was impressed with a grown man knowing an elementary school term was an intellectual insult…Rush was being condescending…THEREFORE Ice-T put his racist ass on blast (as he should of)
* obviously, since you are defending Rush, you PROBABLY agree with his ideologies…i say f*ck Rush and ALL of his supporters
*conservatives want small government BUT supported the Patriot Act= CONTRADICTION…they only want small government in terms of regulating corporate agendas and the financial industry because most wealthy Amerikkkans are conservative…
* and as far as Rush having that ONE black friend= you can like one person of a group but hate the entire group as a whole, there is no law that restricts this…
I will say you are correct in pointing out the hypocrisy of conservatives on Constitutionalism and small government on such as the Patriot Act, you’ll get no argument from me.
Link to the audio, no it was not condescending. You dont understand the suprise or WOW factor for Ice T saying this, because you may not hold the point of view that Liberal Progressivism is the status quo of our culture, particularly in New York and Hollywood and among our elites in media, government, academia, and art/culture. Tyranny may or may not be an “elementary” term, but it wasnt remarkable that Ice T knew a BIG word like tyranny! The “wow” factor was WHERE the tyranny was understood to comes from, the government! The wow factor was a celebrity showed a deep understanding of such principles and put it in a package that would even find the envy of communication gurus like Frank Luntz.

If you listened to Rush for years like I have, you would know he just doesnt have ONE black friend/supporter. I simply pointed out Snerdley because Rush is regularly slandered across the state-controlled media as a racist, yet staring you in the face is a guy who played a huge role in Rush’s success. Rush cares about all Americans regardless of color, there is no hidden racist agenda.
There is a hidden racist agenda on the Left however. Like Nazism, a giant aspect of the Left is racial primacy. It is collectivism. Rather than judging people by character as a great Progressive leader said in his I Have A Dream speech, to a Liberal today you are judged first by your race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, etc, only last does your individuality examined. You are not an individual to a Liberal, we belong to groups. If you are a black female, you are a stereotype. If you are a white male you are a stereotype. Like the Nazi’s, Liberals believe if your part of the “race” and you have a different point of view, you are a race traitor. Like Clarence Thomas, one of the greatest defenders of the Constitution in our time, against both the Bush and Obama administration and the Congress, but he is slandered as an Uncle Tom.
” Rush saying he was impressed with a grown man knowing an elementary school term was an intellectual insult…Rush was being condescending…THEREFORE Ice-T put his racist ass on blast (as he should of)” so “condescending = racist”. stop making up definitions to support your bs.
“they only want small government in terms of regulating corporate agendas and the financial industry because most wealthy Amerikkkans are conservative” how about some facts? Of the Top 20 Richest Americans, 60% are Democrat and only 40% Republican. please stop spreading lies…
@ real talk 100-
Rush said “The NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it.” …
now, we know there are black, white, latino and other races within the Bloods and Crips but they are primarily Black gangs and he said it slight Black Americans (he didn’t say it about skinheads, hell’s angels, or outlaws)…if he is NOT racist, he attracts racist followers…either way F*ck him
you sound really SILLY comparing Liberals to Nazi’s…you obviously get your info from Right-Wing media…i know Liberals of diverse backgrounds and celebrate each others differences…but the common factor is that Liberals believe in equality where conservatives treat others poorly (see: gays)
…honestly, i feel sorry for you because of the Nazi comments it speaks volumes on your character…Nazism= racial superiority, far-right beliefs, anti-communism & anti-semetism
@ mike:
LoL
Rush has proven himself a racist prick LONG before his Ice-T riff
the condescending defition was not to equal racism…..i was pointing out that Rush was being CONDESCENDING, not COMPLIMENTING…but you were too stupid to catch it!
and are you saying that %60 of the 20 richest Americans (12) is a greater number than Americans who average income over $200,000…you sound SILLY
how about you give COMPLETE facts?
Maaan… I just HATE when niggas start catching feelings and write novels on DX. You guys need a fucking life, need to catch a date or something, but just get off the computer for a minute.
LMFAO at the irony of someone commenting on people COMMENTING!!!
You my friend, sound like so many ignorant racist people I’ve met who use the line, “how can I be racist, my best friend is black”. Get the f outta here ya puppet. Trying to drop knowledge with your paragraph of bullshit
writing novels on dx is for losers… except if you are bored at work like me lol
ya i know what condescending means, i got you, I was saying he was being complimentary, not condescending, I did not misunderstand you. You also said, quote “racist ass”, so I responded to your comments by giving you the origins of racism in the Left.
Yes I do get information from various sources, some of which is Right wing. I consume Msnbc/NBCnews and their websites, Peter Schiff, Bloomberg, CNBC, Rush, Beck/GBTV, NPR, local newspapers, RT, CSPAN. I am an unashamed Free Market Capitalist, and I am for very high levels of Freedom and Liberty. This means I disagree with people like Rush Limbaugh often when he supports things like the Patriot Act, Gay Marriage, and Wilsonian Nation building in the Middle East.
I also get information from history. For example, the comparisons to the Nazi ideology to Leftist ideology, which I have absolutely no problem doing, since Nazism is an ideology of the Left. Not the Right. This is not based on Right wing sources, rather history and ideological analysis. Example “Socialism” is an ideology of the Left, the Nazis were the party of Leftists, the full name of the party is the National Socialist German Workers Party. Besides national socialism i.e. Progressivism, which is also an ideological component of the American Left, a dominant feature of the Nazi ideology is racial primacy. However the Left simply applies racial primacy to blacks and other minorities. Whites are exempt from the norms. The Left’s reaction to ideological deviants is similar against those in 1920-1930 Germany. Those that do not conform are self-haters and race traitors, enemies of Progress. These norms are not just enforced within the minority community itself, but also by whites on the Left. Just look at all the racist attacks by whites against Clarence Thomas and Allen West.
Yall claim to be tolerant, except when someone disagrees with you. Or in Rush’s case, when Rush agrees and compliments Ice T for his statements, thus creating an impossible paradox in the space/time continuum your brainwashed mind can not comprehend. This is the level of intolerance of the Left in a black man holding conservative beliefs, that a major conservative radio talk show host agrees with him. Its impossible in your world view. Could not happen in your reality. So the Lie is easier to swallow.
im just in awe at this observation, its like a giant mental block, a mind fuck, like the planet Earth just fell off its axis: Yall are SO intolerant of a black man holding conservative views, let alone a rapper! And when it happens and a guy like Rush Limbaugh, a supposed “racist” agrees with him? Holy shit, IMPOSSIBLE, IT DOES NOT COMPUTE, your programmed minds can not handle it, I get it now, its okay. I understand. One day you will deprogram yourself from the decade plus of Government schools with their government teachers feeding you government propaganda lol, its tough i know.
Yall are SO intolerant of a black man holding conservative views

WRONG
WE TRYNA HELP U B4 U WAKE UP IN A SITUATION WITH YO ASS OUT
NO HOMO
U SEEM SMART
INFORM YOSELF ABOUT THE GROVER CLEVELAND ADMINISTRATIONS
U WILL C WHAT HE TRIED AND HOW THE GREAT DEPRESSION FOLLOWED BECAUSE OF THOSE SAME “CONSERVATIVE” VIEWS U SPEAK OF
Grover Cleveland was President in the 19th century, decades before the Great Depression, his policies had as much to do with the Great Depression as James K Polk lol. Actually the President and Federal Reserve that caused the initial Depression was the Progressive Keynesian Herbert Hoover. Roosevelt took Hoover’s massive interventionist policies and stepped on the gas and made it a Great Depression.
The ONLY economists that actually predicted the crash in 2008 were of the Austrian School. Probably the most famous subscribers to the Austrian School, at least off the top of my head are Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, Jim Rogers, and Glenn Beck.
If you want to know what caused the Great Depression and the current Bush/Obama Depression that will get FAR worse, check out a couple excellent lectures/videos:
“Peter Schiff Was Right”, as well his appearance on the Daily Show in 2009.
“Why You Never Heard of the Great Depression of 1920” by Dr Thomas E Woods Jr, Fellow at the Mises Institute
“Why The Meltdown Should Have Surprised No One” by Peter Schiff, CEO of EuroPacific Capital
“Walter Williams talks about FDR, Great Depression, Obama”. Walter E Williams, Professor at George Mason University, columnist for the Washington Examiner
^ White Republican
@maddog, lol like I said, ur brainwashed mind cant handle the concept of a black libertarian or black conservative, so like the nazis you resort to racial primacy. I am a deviant, I am not conforming to your Statist ideology, im a race traitor, an uncle tom, yall call people racist all day, yet you just slander me as a “White Republican”. I must be exiled and considered an outsider. You are being a great Leftist robot, very predictable. Well done for proving my point, Leftist are INTOLERANT RACIST LMAO!!
*Link to actual audio clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMbnm3EBN2A
Ice-T is %100 accurate…the only people who defend Rush (agree with him) are most likely his supporters
Rush Limbaugh quotes:
“The NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it.”
He has referred to basketball as “the favorite sport of gangs
