Bristol Palin Apologizes for Antigay Slurs


BRISTOL PALIN X390

Bristol Palin took to Facebook to apologize, or not, for antigay slurs she and her sister wielded in response to a young man who criticized their mother Sarah Palin’s television show on the social networking site.

"Willow and I shouldn't have reacted to negative comments about our family. We apologize,” wrote Bristol on behalf of her younger sister, who has since deleted her Facebook account, according to TMZ. She continued, “On a nicer note, thank you for supporting the great competition in Dancing with the Stars!"

The younger sister had used the antigay slurs against a Facebook friend who dared to suggest that the show Sarah Palin’s Alaska appeared to be a failure. Then Bristol, a reality TV personality in her own right from Dancing With the Stars, jumped to her sister’s defense.

However, hours after posting the apology on Wednesday, Bristol seemed to begrudge the need to say she was sorry.

"Thank you supporters who continue to support,” she wrote. “The haters are already pulling out all the stops this week to destroy."

    We can't blame Bristol nor Willow because they're still young. But I DO blame their parents for installing bigotry in them. The Palin's wouldn't know truth if it slapped them upside the head. I say let the youngin's spew their true feelings. Maybe Momma should stay home with the girls and teach them not to go bed hopping before marriage.

    Give me a break, First the obvious worst dancer on this season of Dancing With The Stars could not get votes based on talent, abvious LACK of, and she is having shellshock of being in a REAL city, not the back woods somewhere near the North Pole. Guess she can not deal with the real world, has to rely on the Mother's " Celebrity" appearances to validate herself. What a shame. Who died and left her in charge, or the sister to make comments about something they are abvious ignorant about and not genuinely sorry about showing that ignorance either?

    It's ok bristol. You're young. You have lots of time to learn whats appropriate and whats not. And with your mom, I'm personally giving you extra time to decide what kind of a world you want to envision. One where you take every piece of bait out there untill no one likes you and just applies your mom's personality to you like a blueprint. Or one where you are pragmatic and everyone thinks that you have restraint and class and will slowly give you your own reputation.

    John Stewart made fun of the people attacking Willow Palin. She's 16 and it's her Facebook account, leave the girl alone. The media is just going after her because she's Sarah Palin's daughter. And this headline is misleading. It was Willow who made the comments, not Bristol. She was appologizing for Willow.

    Pistol. Oh excuse me, I mean, Bristol, just because someone criticizes your family's show, does nto mean mean you assume the sexual orientation of the person. Even then, it does not warrant you calling him a gay slur. I guess the sister said the gay slurs right - these slurs coming from a person named after a tree? How this for an insult? Why does Sarah Palin say the media insults her constantly when the same media made her both a celebrity and a millionaire? Nice display of gratitude, Sarah.

    You people are freaking morons. There's two sides to EVERY story. Just because you don't like who her mother is doesn't mean you can just get irrational and condemn her to death. Idiots...

    The whole family is 'sorry'. I'm hoping they are on minute 14, because honestly, America deserves better crap than the Palin's. They make the Kardashian's look like rocket scientists.

    I'm confused as to why they are apologizing when I HIGHLY doubt they are truly sorry. In fact I'm so sure that they are not sorry and that they freely use that sort of language that I bet anyone a million dollars that they're not sorry. Bigots the lot of them. Sarah probably gave them a big hug and congratulated them on the remark.
