If you are having a great day, then you probably should not watch the below discussion MSNBC's Morning Joe had earlier today, March 11, because it is just depressing. The roundtable discussion found a way to blame hip-hop and alcohol, notably Waka Flocka Flame, after video of students in OU's SAE fraternity surfaced, yelling racist chants on a school bus.

If that sounds absurd, their reasoning makes it even worse. The all-white panel derided hip-hop for using the n-word and that its influence on impressionable young 19-year-olds that when you mix in alcohol, it is no wonder they all of sudden become super racist.

They singled out Waka Flocka Flame because he took a stand on the issue and canceled his show at the University of Oklahoma the day after the video surfaced. He also went on CNN to discuss the video and express his outrage on national television. On the panel, Mika Brzezinski was especially critical of Waka Flocka, taking offence to his lyrics as any out-of-touch person would.

"Every single song, I guess you call it 'garbage,' filled with the n-word and f-bombs," she said, before dropping her own idiot bomb.

"He shouldn't be disgusted with them," Brzezinski said. "He should be disgusted with himself."

Her co-host Bill Kristol went one step further, remaining silent the majority of the segment except for this one sound bite: "Popular culture becomes a cesspool, a lot of corporations profit off of it and then people are surprised that some drunk 19-year-old kids repeat what they've been hearing."

We have to check again, but those racist chants are not going to be found in your Billboard Top 100 or even in any lyric database. Being a blatant racist and hip-hop lyrics are two mutually exclusive things that are not in the same conversation.

Brzezinski went on MSNBC's The Cycle this afternoon, March 11, to defend her comments, and while she did not excuse the comments of the OU kids, she did defend her own parallel.

"There may be a good conversation to have out there on rap music, hip-hop lyrics and use of the n-word ... but there is no moral equivalency between any lyrics and what happened on that bus," she said via Vanity Fair. "Lyrics have nothing to do with the actions that happened on the bus."
