The most pleasantly-positive,
G-rated rapper in the game is literally
on the s***list of a right-wing organization
calling themselves Patriotic Americans
Boycotting Anti-American Hollywood,
reports the New York Daily News.
During an interview with a German
newspaper, Smith was asked if the
Sept. 11 attacks had changed him.
His response:
"No, absolutely not. …Whether
you are wounded in an attack by
a racist cop or in a terrorist attack,
I'm sorry, it makes no difference. In
the 60s, blacks were continuously the
victims of terrorist attacks. It was
civil terrorism, but terrorism
nonetheless."
Those words have landed the
36-year-old on the right wing group’s
Anti-American list of “banned” stars,
along with Robert Redford and Renee
Zellweger, among others.
"I've always been a huge fan.
But now I'm not going to put a dime
in Will Smith's pockets." Patriotic
Americans founder Jon Alvarez
told the Daily News.
