Chris Brown says Ebola is a form of population control
R&B singer Chris Brown has been ridiculed for a bizarre outburst on Twitter in which he claimed the killer Ebola virus is a ‘form of population control.
The outspoken artist tweeted his thoughts on the epidemic that has claimed the lives of over 4000 people mostly from West Africa and continues to spread.
Brown tweeted: “I don’t know … But I think this Ebola epidemic is a form of population control. S*** is getting crazy bruh.”
Since the artist posted the tweet yesterday, it has been retweeted 28, 260.
Possibly realising what he had said, Brown quickly added in another tweet, “Let me shut my black a** up!”
However instead of deleting the tweet, the singer chose to leave it on his timeline.
Brown stands by his statement with the following response posted on Twitter a few hours ago, “I say what I want. If u don’t like it…. “SUCK MY A**” ( little Asian girl voice).”
Comedian Warren Holstein shared his views on Brown’s theory by tweeting, “Chris Brown tweeted that Ebola is ‘a form of population control.’ He should try it.”
Wayne Durham tweeted, “The stupid gene is strong in Chris Brown,” while Kevin Hildebrand noted, “Let’s keep in mind that Chris Brown is a complete idiot, so his theory of Ebola is equal to a rant from a village idiot.”
Last week Browns mother known as Mama Breezy made a call on behalf of Brown to offer help to the family of Liberian, Thomas Duncan, who took the disease to the United States after contracting it in Liberia.
While some view Browns theory as ‘interesting’, others feel that we should consult a more authoritative source for information regarding Ebola.
“If you’re looking for reliable information on the Ebola Virus, try the CDC, not Chris Brown’s conspiracy theory tweets,” said MTV News.
Love him or hate him, Brown’s music is still very popular racking up seven nominations, including best R&B/soul male artist and song of the year for “Loyal” for the Soul Train Awards.
