Preach it, Gutfeld!
As Twitchy reported, “poet” Amanda Palmer wrote a poem urging empathy for Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. No, for reals.
Unbelievable. Yet, sadly, totally believable.
Twitter took Ms. Palmer and her depravity to task, and rightly so. Greg Gutfeld destroyed her, as only he can, and he needed only a few tweets to do so.
I'm anxiously awaiting an @amandapalmer haiku on Hitler

Hey @amandapalmer – Any sestinas on Stalin? A ballad for Bundy? Come on: I sense a whole new career for you.

Ms. Palmer has been shrouding herself in a veil of victim-hood, natch.
ahhh, it's been a long time on since internet trolls yelled at me that i was a slut, a talentless whore and a hippy!!! welcome, friends!!

@amandapalmer The antagonizing by the closeminded never fails to bring the kindhearted&loving closer together. Their hate fuels our progress

Of course. The victims of the Boston bombing? Whatever! Ms. Palmer is the real victim here. For being so “enlightened” and such. Plus, ka-ching!

@greggutfeld @amandapalmer You just don't get it / He never wanted all that / No one bought his art

If we really want to punish Dzhokar Tsarnaev, he should spend the rest of his natural life listening to @amandapalmer's poetry.

Keep them coming, Twitter. In case you need even more of a reason to push back hard, just dwell on this for a bit.

Oh, the humanity. And some exit questions for Ms. Palmer:
If @amandapalmer was in a Boston hospital, looking at bloody stumps where her legs used to be, she'd have penned the same poem, right?
— CatsPolitics (@CatsPolitics) April 22, 2013
Huh. The Daily Caller’s “Jim Treacher” has another one:
I wonder if Palmer would’ve written a poem for this kid-killer if he’d been a boring ol’ Christian teabagger? Would that be alluringly exotic enough for her?
