USA Today columnist Yolanda Young says that recently-convicted rapper/debutante “Lil’ Kim” (a/k/a Kimberly Jones) is yet another victim of “lying for men.” (Please pardon the Fisking, but it’s just so ripe…)

Two things jump out here - first and foremost, Lil’ Kim is a victim. In other words, this kind of thing could happen to any of us at any time. WE ARE ALL LIL’ KIM!

Second, Young views a thug who engages in a gunfight outside a radio station as merely an irresponsible man. Irresponsible is not paying the utility bill. Irresponsible is losing your keys. Engaging in a gunfight with another bunch of rap thugs is not irresponsible. Lil’ Kim is not the first victim of irresponsible men, however…

God bless President Clifford. He spent 8 years teaching America how to avoid personal responsibility for its own actions. He also taught us that perjury isn’t really punishable by law, so it’s understandable that Lil’ Kim’s followers would be angry and confused by the conviction. But most importantly, when will the epidemic of young black women victimized by irresponsible men ever end???

Maybe it is an epidemic. Just look at the numbers! If the ACLU says it’s so, it must be so.

Let Lil’ Kim’s tragic example of victimhood be a lesson to all of us. WE ARE ALL LIL’ KIM!

1. Unbelievable. I hate people who can’t take responsibility for their own actions. Yolanda must be a liberal.

3. I used to be Lil’ Kim, but then I decided to be Da Brat. But that wasn’t working for me, so I was Missy for a while and now I’m back to Madonna before she married Guy Ritchie.

4. Looks like the Rev. Jesse Jackson mail order course of “Be a Professional Victim, Make Millions” is paying off for Li’l Kim and a few others.

7. Love this story so much that I stripped down in front of the mirror, tucked my penis between my legs, put on my favorite wig and chanted, “I am Li’l Kim, I am Li’l Kim” for like two hours.
