in Chit-Chat
My sister posted this link this morning on Facebook and I thought I'd share with all the folks here. I'm not sure if any of you heard about the hate filled racist rant of the young blond girl from UCLA regarding Asians using cell phones in the library. Well one young man took it upon himself to respond to her rant in the most amazing way. He wrote a song. It's brilliant and he has an amazing voice.

Check out the article and the videos.
You won't regret it.

    He's actually selling the song on youtube with 100% of the proceeds going to charity.

    I bought it as soon as I finished watching the video.

    He's definitely pretty dreamy.

    Love him. Such a great response to what she did. He skewers her without being an jerk himself. (The people who sent her death threats were so out of line.) I don't get the impression she learned anything from it, but I bet a lot of other people did.
