Actress Ellen Barkin Hopes Hurricane Kills Pro-Life Republicans

Actress Ellen Barkin created a stir on Twitter today when she sent out a re-tweet of a message someone sent saying they hoped Hurricane Isaac would hit the Republican convention and “was every pro-life, anti-education, anti-woman, xenophobic, gay-bashing, racist SOB right into the ocean.”

LOL.

Ellen you just don't say some shit outloud.

 

[Broder Salsa]

She sounds anti life.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Disgusting

 

[Escape Goat]

Breaking news.

 

[whitehawk]

Non-news.

Twitter is annoying like this sometimes. I'm sure many people have said similar things, but now that it's on twitter it's newsworthy.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

They do need to be bathed.

 

[Cyan]

No idea who that is. And no regrets.

 

[Stet]

And she was so awesome in Sea of Love.

 

[Weenerz]

The tweet doesn't say she wants them to die, just to go for a swim. They are probably good swimmers.

 

[SnakeswithLasers]

LOL.

Should 'was' be wash?

And I think 'hopes hurricane kills pro-life republicans' is a strange way to phrase, "retweets something about hoping ignorant people get washed into the ocean."

But it's not as fun.

 

[Tamanon]

For some reason I thought she was dead already.

Disgusting human.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Hey Ellen, you aren't helping.

 

[David Incorporated Esq.]

This is different from everyone posting the "bugs bunny saws off Florida" gif how?

(Hint: It's not)

 

[ezekial45]

Damn. Though you can't deny that a number of people were thinking it.

 

[LakeEarth]

You're my new favourite actress.

(goes to IMDB)

... alright, well ... you're still cool in my book.

Spoiler

I don't wish people's deaths, but the whole "racist xenophobic anti-education" part hit a note with me.

 

[Davidion]

Hi internet denizen! It seems like you got your hands on this nice new shiny "Social Media" account. Congratulations! But before you go opening your mouth, a few things...

 

[Stet]

Maybe I want Florida to be an independent floating nation.

 

[Cyan]

The Bugs Bunny gif is funny.

 

[Fusebox]

Guys she just wants them washed.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Barking doesn't care about Republicans.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

This guy gets it.

Now is the time for faux outrage, not level headed thinking.

 

[Takao]

Disgusting human.

Are you some sort of alien or highly advanced cat? It just sounds weird to say that.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

No idea who that is. And no regrets.

If you were awesome, you would know her as the love interest in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. However, you probably know her as the hot older chick in Ocean's 13.

 

[Loofy]

Well thats not normal.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

This is different from everyone posting the "bugs bunny saws off Florida" gif how?

(Hint: It's not)

Because Bugs Bunny is literally murdering millions of Floridians by sawing it off into the Gulf of Mexico

 

[SnakeswithLasers]

Now is the time for faux outrage, not level headed thinking.

HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM THE LIBERALS GETTING ALL FAUX OUTRAGED ABOUT AKIN'S COMMENTS!?!?

 

[Devolution]

HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM THE LIBERALS GETTING ALL FAUX OUTRAGED ABOUT AKIN'S COMMENTS!?!?

Yes. Yes. <3.

 

[Stet]

Pretty sure you mean Lieberals.

"hot"?

 

[Rookje]

Who?

Oh.

Learn to swim

She wasn't even hot in her prime.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

She's like Cameron Diaz's older sister or mom, right?

 

[ClassyPenguin]

well I just hope they refuse federal aid and rebuild by bootstraps.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I wouldnt wish death on anyone.

 

[Byakuya769]

I bet she really hopes they all die. I can tell cause she retweeted it.
Classless, but definitely shrug inducing.

 

[eznark]

Wow, Ellen Barken is still alive.

 

[Stet]

She wasn't even hot in her prime.

Whaaaat?

 

[Agnostic]

I loved her in Bad Company.

 

[googleplex]

I hope that the entire Republican leadership is washed out to sea by a hurricane.

And I have no qualms about saying it.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Republican or Democrat, no one deserves to die.

What an idiotic comment by her.

 

[ChoklitReign]

This woman is older than my mother and I would still smang her. This just makes it extra awkward.

 

[ReBurn]

Money can't buy class.

 

[jerry1594]

I hope everyone gets to live long, happy lives.

 

[jediyoshi]

Sick of the hollywood b list elite.

 

[ggnoobIGN]

I hope that the entire Republican leadership is washed out to sea by a hurricane.

And I have no qualms about saying it.

I was going to say I was surprised no one from GAF jumped on the bandwagon, but we have our idiot ladies and gentlemen.

 

[Shalashaska161]

Where the hell did we get news before Twitter?

 

[Reiko]

It's still real to her DAMMIT.
