Our Island Neighbor, Roseanne Barr

[HereOnThePrimalEdge]

Roseanne Barr lives in a sprawling hillside home on the Hamakua Coast. She has made videos of her life as a farmer, a macadamia nut farmer. You’ve probably seen some of her other comments recently - - so bring it on home Roseanne:

“I was afraid to go out, and also because when you’re called a racist and you live on an island full of brown people, it’s kind of terrifying.”

Thank you Roseanne. That certainly clears up any uncertainty about your previous comments.

Perhaps the poor lady accidentally put her foot in her mouth--more than oncer.

I'd guess a lot of that article is written by clueless folks. I like the part where she hid in her mother's basement in Hawaii for two months. We have basements around here?

FWIW, I've met her around town here a couple of times. In person she's a lot quieter and comes across as a normal person, I'm not sure how much of what we see is done for the cameras or what. Hollywood is weird.

I thought she moved to Maui?

Freedom of speech. But, there are consequences to the things we say. Comparing a black woman to an ape is racist.

Nope, not racist at all....
