‘Yogi’ Russell Simmons gets schooled by YouTube gun enthusiast Colion Noir
http://twitter.com/#!/jrsalzman/status/309873605376888832
As Twitchy reported last week, YouTube sensation Colion Noir joined NRA News as a contributor. The Left’s anti-gun zealots immediately went into meltdown mode over his “Coming Soon to NRA News” video.
Russell Simmons is a little late to the pearl-clutching game.
Dear @nra, we don’t want trust you. Sincerely, Black America… bit.ly/Z3kqGp PLEASE RT
— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 8, 2013
But by Thursday he was sufficiently worked up about “some black guy with a Yankees hat” to publish a Global Grind post titled, “The NRA & Black People: Ain’t Nobody Got Time For That!“
Our community is not interested in a corporate sponsored gun group telling us what to do, when their real mission is to make more money for the corporations that line their dirty pockets with rolls of cash and silver bullets. We’re much smarter than that and certainly can see through their motives. Until they show a real interest in solving the violence problem in our community, they can keep their Yankee hat-wearing spokesman and their African-American “campaigns” for themselves.
Like Touré, Simmons has appointed himself the voice of black America and is out to belittle any black American who won’t toe the lefty line. How progressive! Noir wasn’t about to let that go unchallenged.
“@unclerush: Dear @nra, we don’t want trust you. Sincerely, Black America… bit.ly/Z3kqGp Sounds good but not saying anything

“Shocking.” That’s the same word Simmons used when he discovered that there are terrible, no-good people who teach their daughters to defend themselves with firearms instead of yoga poses. Noir knocked down that argument without breaking a sweat.

Simmons made an effort to respond, but he couldn’t quite keep up with Noir’s pesky logic. Bless his precious heart.
.@mrcolionnoir I have no idea why you would do a video for the @nra that would promote more violence. Shocking.
— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 8, 2013
@unclerush @nra when did promoting self reliance and protection equate to violence?
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@mrcolionnoir to tell our people that they need to protect themselves from the government with guns is irresponsible and dangerous.
— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 8, 2013
And here it comes: Noir is nothing but a tool. Predictable.
.@mrcolionnoir but I don’t want to fight you, because you are just being used by the @nra. I am yogi and have compassion for you.
— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 8, 2013
Disappointed @unclerush Racist to think a black man w/ a differing belief must be being used. Not very yogi like. Meditate. @mrcolionnoir

@mrcolionnoir proud subscriber to your channel.I guess I’m not black anymore because I don’t agree with @unclerush
— Marlon Silvera (@Dejavera) March 8, 2013
Simmons would totally stick around to fight this losing battle (while flanked by his bodyguards, no doubt), but the enlightened “yogi” has meditating to do.
smile and breathe in every pose.
— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 8, 2013
So instead, he went running to his Twitter followers to fight his battle for him.
The @nra is attacking my blog. Go in and leave a comment –> bit.ly/Z3kqGp

Meanwhile, Noir took Simmons and his troll brigade to liberty school.
@kenwf @unclerush @nra yet you acknowledge you should be strapped?
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@jdubrich @unclerush @nra tell that torush and his rush card lol smh
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@kenwf @unclerush @nra say that when someone’s shooting at you, stop confusing self defense with murder
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@kenwf what ego? You addressed me. If you don’t want a gun don’t own one, just don’t tell me Not to.
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@jaymontega28k @unclerush never said that, I said trusting it for your protection is not smart considering our last with the govt
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@lilesbella @stopbeingfamous light satire at best. Doesn’t change the meaning. Now I’mbeing vilified for being kind of funny?
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@360magazine its called an analogy.
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@360magazine I have a 100+ videos about 2min long addressing a Multitude of gun topics.
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@360magazine yes
— Mr. Colion Noir (@MrColionNoir) March 8, 2013
@meaganmarkwardt @nra how about you actually watch my vidoes, I advocate the complete opposite. Stop retweeting blindly.

A note to Russell Simmons, I don’t have fans, I have supporters. This is real life, not music, not movies, real… fb.me/JWpf5SF7

His full Facebook note:
A note to Russell Simmons, I don’t have fans, I have supporters. This is real life, not music, not movies, real life. You kicked the hornets and thought you could walk away, but you were wrong. The NRA came to me after saying what I have been saying for two years. We’re not lil wayne fans, we take this seriously, we believe in our rights and the ability to protect ourselves. Black, White, Hispanic, Asian, we are Americans with the right to live and protect that life. The gun is the equalizer in a world of evil whether you want to believe it or not. Remember this the next time you decide to come down from your ivory tower and attack someones motives who you know nothing about. As pro gunners we protect our own, the same way we would protect you with our guns if someone threatened your life.
And that’s a win.
@mrcolionnoir can’t wait for your next video about @unclerush
