A human rights group is upset with Chris Brown after the R&B singer was videotaped making homophobic remarks. Brown, who was trying to avoid a citation after being alerted that his car was about to get a parking ticket, called the paps “Gay” and accused them of calling the authorities so they can take pictures of him.
The “Look At Me Now” hitmaker eventually talked his way out of the ticket called out the snappers, saying, “Y’all n**gas is weak. Did you all call them to try and film me? Y’all n**gas is gay!”
After officials at the Human Rights Campaign learned of the quarrel, a spokesman for the group tells Tmz.com, “Invoking words meant to demean gay Americans is just plain unacceptable. Chris Brown should know better.”
“He irresponsibly neglected to recognize the impact of his words and the unacceptable message that it sends to couple the word gay with negative actions.”
Brown also took to his Twitter page to explain his position, writing, “I have total respect for Gay community and my intention was not to insult anyone in it. #REALS**T.”
*Side note: If this group was really about protecting “Human Rights,” they should’ve also said something about the “N-Word,” which was mentioned twice and is negative towards African Americans.
Was this group picking on Chris Brown or was it warranted?
