Victimhood Society: Leslie Jones Goes Unhinged On Pierre McGuire

Apparently, Leslie Jones was mad that McGuire brought up Jones losing to Canada at Sochi

(NY Post) Leslie Jones put NBC Sports analyst Pierre McGuire on notice Thursday morning, as the veteran commentator rehashed painful Olympic memories during the USA-Canada women’s hockey gold medal game.

On notice!

Speaking with Team USA’s Gigi Marvin during the second intermission, McGuire pressed the 30-year-old forward about the 2014 Sochi games, in which the US lost to its neighbors to the north 3-2.

“You’re one of the 10 ladies that experienced the disappointment in Sochi. What’s going to be your message coming out here for the last 20 minutes?” the former exec and longtime analyst asked, via Awful Announcing.

With one period standing between Team USA and Olympic gold, which they would ultimately claim, many weren’t pleased with McGuire bringing up the heartbreaking history, “Saturday Night Live” staple Jones in particular.

“Okay, f–k asshole! Why the f–k would you ask her that right now, in the middle of a f–king game that she’s playing right now?” Jones seethed in a video posted on Twitter. “Thank you. Thank you for putting that in her motherf–king head. You know what, get your ass the f–k away from the hockey player! You know what, I swear to God, I swear to God. See, when I go, y’all lose your f–king mind! What the f–k would you ask her that for?”

A couple points. First, sportscasters do that all the time. This is what they do. Second, Jones wasn’t even on the team. She’s a “comic”. This whole thing of getting completely unhinged in the name of other people is ridiculous. Absurd. Silly.

Just the other day, people were being Outraged on behalf of Jennifer Lawrence, who posed in a low cut dress with slits way up the side. We saw all the typical 3rd wave feminism stuff, people accusing others of misogyny. Only one problem

Jennifer Lawrence WANTED to wear the dress. She didn’t WANT to put a coat over it. Surprisingly, some women really like fashion, and want to show it off. Weird, right? Hilariously, people were still Offended and Outraged even after Ms. Lawrence responded to all the Outrage.

A third point, when people are getting this out of control over something so minor as these things, is it any wonder that some people go the next step and commit violence over minor things? Things that have nothing to do with them? If everyone is now a Victim, if everyone wants to be a Victim, if minor things that we used to brush off now make us Victims, then people want retribution.

    She looks like a million bucks in that dress and wanted to show it. But that’s not good enough for the fascists on the left…personal choice must be restrained to do the bidding of the collective.

  2. Jeffery says:

    She should have won Best Actress for “Winter’s Bone”.

    And it is wise to dress appropriately for the weather. But it’s not a requirement.

    twitter hurts, not helps humankind.
