Why would a civil rights organization give a man who used the word "faggot" to a gay man an Image Award? That’s what the NAACP just did. I wonder if HRC will complain? Yeah, right. They’ll have to ask Clinton permission first. Of course, Wiki tells me that
in 1994, Tupac Shakur was a nominee for Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture for the film Poetic Justice although he had been charged in December 1993 with sexually abusing a woman. In 2004, R. Kelly’s Chocolate Factory was nominated for Outstanding Album although he was under indictment at the time for charges related to child pornography.
Still, they didn’t actually win, did they? Meanwhile, there’s more evidence of the group’s dysfunction here.
