I'm a little confused about Ant's firing

0  2014-07-06 by [deleted]

So, why was he fired exactly? I read his tweets and there was nothing in there that he hasn't already said on air 100 times already. The only difference I can see is that this time, his rant was preceded by him getting assaulted by someone. So he's being fired for being assaulted? I'm confused.

because of phony liberal outrage and douchy web rags that pander to mentally ill social justice warriors.

ah.

Good work, I think you managed to force all the buzzwords into that one!

When he says it on the show, it's clear he's talking about the criminal element within the black community. If he ever goes over the top, he says it in a comical shouting voice, and Opie/Jimmy laugh and say something to deflect/clarify. When he went on Twitter, it just looked to outsiders like he was talking about all black people when he said things like "they aren't people". If I'd never heard of him, I'd certainly read the tweets and find it strange that such an outspoken racist has a high profile radio job.

Because it all finally caught up with him.

Yep. Sad but true.

But I don't want to.

You can get a shotgun at Walmart pretty cheap.

HOLY FUCK ENOUGH WITH THE CONSTANT SHOTGUN JOKES. WE GET IT, YOU LIKE JIMMY. FUCK.

A guy named "LizardKingRumsfeld" wants to shit on people over show references.

Watch the CAPS. You noticed the shotgun reference, didn't ya?

Do you hold down the Shift key as you are typing or do you press down the Caps Lock before you type in anger?

I forget who posted this theory but it's a good one - at some point in his rant he called her a prostitute, which might be considered libelous, and she might be suing over it. Media companies take libel really seriously, so maybe they got scared from that. That might also explain why he deleted so many tweets from this year.

I posted that theory.

ah.
