BRYAN PRESTON: Nia Renee Hill and Bill Burr Show How to Handle Woke-a-Trons.
Bill Burr presented some awards and make some jokes at the Grammys Sunday. I wasn’t watching*, and only heard about it later, being one of the vast majority of Americans who could not find a way to care less about the Grammys or any other shows on which famous people congratulate themselves and give each other trophies for being famous.
Searching for a way to care less…coming up empty.
Burr isn’t politically correct, that’s his thing, and his jokes Sunday night weren’t politically correct.
Some people had a problem with this and called him a racist. Because it’s 2021, that problem had to become the entire world’s problem.
Others pointed out that Burr probably isn’t a racist since there’s no evidence he is and by the way his wife, the multi-talented actress, and producer Nia Renee Hill, is black.
Some people still had a problem with Burr. One of them is a failed candidate for the office by the name of Clayburn Griffin. He’s on Twitter, which apparently exists to elevate stupid opinions.
See for yourself.

Hill was evidently unimpressed by the tweet, hitting back with the abrupt response: “B****, shut the f*** up.”
Fellow Twitter users were quick to dismiss or mock Griffin’s comments, with rapper Zuby replying: “Well done. Worst tweet ever. And the competition is tough.
“You won. You can delete your account now.”
Heh, indeed.
