David Eason Attacks Kailyn Lowry on Instagram, Gets Absolutely Roasted In Response

David Eason is the type of person that we don't see in the public eye very much. He's an emasculated, unemployed bigot with nothing better to do but spend his wife's money and attempt to stir up fights on social media in hopes of distracting himself from his own uselessness. Generally, guys like David can only be found attempting to cadge free drinks at their local dive bars or cutting eyeholes in bedsheets in preparation for a late night “rally.” But David married Jenelle Evans , which means he actually has an audience for his loser-y online ramblings. Unfortunately for David, that audience really just wishes he would stick to flat-ironing his beard hair in his rapidly sinking house. Take a look: 1. Dipsh-t Dave It’s impossible to overstate how bored Eason is. These days, the 30-year-old spends most of his time on social media spewing bigotry and attempting to stir up fights with people who still have jobs. 2. Any Target Will Do Whether he’s spewing bizarre conspiracies about the “true” causes of the Civil War or simply attacking the appearances of his former co-stars, Dave has proven himself to be the ultimate snowflake. 3. Rage-aholic He’s addicted to his own outrage, and he needs conflict to distract him from the sad state of his own life. 4. Small Potatoes David LOVES stirring the pot with fans by making bizarre claims such as the slaves of the antebellum South were not actually from Africa, but he recognizes that fighting with non-celebs will only earn him so much attention. 5. Enter Kail And so, he occasionally focuses his attention on more famous targets, such as his wife’s Teen Mom 2 co-star, David Eason. 6. Why Kail? David might can justify his recent dislike for Lowry in a number of different ways, and if pressed, he would probably claim that it’s all because Lowry has feuded with Jenelle over the years. But is that the real reason? View Slideshow

You Mad, Huh? White Rapper Yelawolf Defends The Confederate Flag In An F-Bomb Laced Facebook Rant

Yelawolf Defends The Confederate Flag After getting relentlessly dragged for rocking Confederate Flag attire over a year ago on Instagram, one would think Alabama native white rapper Yelawolf would know that most people aren’t exactly on-board with the old Southern symbol — even more so now after the Confederate flag backlash that ensued after the Charleston church massacre . Even as such, the rapper went on a curse-laden, misspelled rant on Monday evening, defending the flag and what it represents to southern folks, even saying he won’t let any West Coast “f*ckboys” tear him away from his (racist) roots… Imagine if he could manage to get half this angry about the unnecessary loss of Black lives at the hands of officers of the law or racist mass murderers? But we guess an antiquated symbol of the Antebellum South and the Jim Crow era is far more important. SMH. Facebook

Talkback: Samuel L. Jackson Really Wants This Interviewer To Drop An N-Bomb

You might have heard the shocking news that Django Unchained features copious use of the word ‘nigger’. I know! I can’t understand why a film set in the antebellum South, featuring numerous unrepentant slaveowners, during a time when black people were considered barely human as a matter of course, would have so many n-bombs. Sure, the word is almost exclusively spoken by villains or by black people to refer to themselves, and sure, it is one of the few aspects of the film that is 100% historically accurate, but come on. How rude of Quentin Tarantino to include it and make the harsh depiction of the slavery era even more uncomfortable. I’m kidding, the fake controversy is incredibly stupid 1 , and feels to me like the rush to blame movies and video games for terrible acts of public violence, because that’s easier than actually facing our demons head-on 2 . Maybe that’s why Samuel L. Jackson had a bit of fun during an interview with FOX Houston’s film critic Jake Hamilton over the issue. About 14 minutes into the the video below, Hamilton started to ask Jackson about the controversy, and this happened: I feel for Hamilton of course. His refusal to use the word and stir up a hornet’s nest of both real and fake outrage is understandable, but of course, it’s just a word. I would hope we’re at a place where we can use it in context – like I did here – without anyone mistaking you for a racist. Perhaps Jackson’s position that the taboo just gives the word more power is the correct one. Either way, this was hilarious. What do you think, readers? Sound off in comments. 1. Speaking of stupid, we’re not giving Drudge hits, but surely you read about his recent Django-inspired N-word tirade. Yeah. 2. BTW, Louie C.K. was right ; being white and male is like winning the lottery. [ Source: Gawker ]

Newt Gingrich on Mitt Romney: He Thinks We’re All Stupid!

The Florida Republican primary is less than a week away and the gloves are off. Having been whomped in South Carolina, Mitt Romney came out firing in Monday night’s Florida debate and has kept up the pressure on his GOP rival all week. New pro-Romney ads are calling Gingrich a liar who’s exaggerating loose ties to Ronald Reagan and drops names instead of touting his own policy credentials. Newt lashed out at Mitt today for questioning his conservative values. Watch: Newt Gingrich Defends Conservative Values “This is the man who stood up the other night to question my credentials as a Reaganite? This is the kind of gall they have to think we are so stupid, and we are so timid,” Gingrich said at an outdoor campaign event in Orlando, Florida. Newt has slipped a bit in recent polls since his demonstrative win. Can he shift the momentum back his way when the candidates debate again tonight?

Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott Marries Chris Tyrrell

‘We’re so excited to be starting our life together,’ Scott says in video message posted on band’s website after Saturday wedding. By Jocelyn Vena Chris Tyrrell and Hillary Scott Photo: Getty Images Lady Antebellum ‘s leading lady, Hillary Scott, is now a married woman. The singer announced that she married drummer Chris Tyrrell on Saturday in New York. In a video message posted by the newlyweds on the Lady Antebellum website , they shared the good news. “We got married!” Scott said, with her new husband by her side. “We just wanted you to hear it from us first. We love you. We’re so excited to be starting our life together and we just had to let you in on the exciting news.” The couple exchanged “I do’s” in upstate New York in front of family and friends, People.com reports. Scott’s Lady Antebellum bandmates, Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood, couldn’t attend. But a rep for the band said, “They look forward to celebrating with both Hillary and Chris in the coming weeks.” Scott wore a dress designed by Vera Wang while the groom wore Ermenegildo Zegna. The twosome got engaged in July. “There is so much excitement at the beginning of a new relationship,” Scott once told Billboard magazine about the song “Just a Kiss,” which was inspired by her relationship with Tyrrell. “This song is about one of those times when your brain kicks in and tells your heart, ‘Good things are worth waiting for.’ ” In Redbook magazine, Scott said she fell for Tyrrell when she met him back in college. “We went to different schools in Tennessee and met through mutual friends,” she recalled. “I thought off the bat that he was really attractive, and I could tell that he was kind. Kindness just oozes out of him. I wanted to date him when I met him! And he just wanted to play basketball.” Related Artists Lady Antebellum
