This just in! Al Sharpton vs. Kanye West

 Is it true? Is the Rev. Al Sharpton boycotting Kanye West?!?!

 Say it aint so.
The Rev. Al Sharpton is apparently threatening to boycott Kanye due to his  "stamping his "Yeezus" tour clothing with confederate flags and wearing them publicly". The Rev. quoted

 "The Confederate flag symbolizes dehumanization, injustice and pain. It is a stark reminder of an era in our history that was defined by the abhorrent practice of slavery,"  "And it is representative of a mentality that looked upon blacks as inferiors who needed to remain in the shackles of subservience."

Kanye's response was that he took the Confederate flag and made it his flag.  He referenced his song "new slaves" and modern-day racism in a contemporary society.  Kanye was quoted

"React how you want"..and... "any energy is good energy".

Hmmmm..... Not so sure if Kanye speaks the truth right there.  However, what are your views on this matter?  Does Kanye have any good rationality behind what he is doing? I mean surely we must know that Kanye is a bit political in alot of his actions.... What are your thoughts?
