Penn is a , but not for that joke.
@ people getting mad about the Sean Penn joke
Penn has worked with the director before, and both have only positive things to say about the experience.
Plus, isn't he all involved in civil rights himself?

And on the other hand LOL at the manufactured outrage about the manufactured outrage. I've certainly heard more of that reaction today than I have from people actually outraged by the comment. As usual.
I was a little surprised by Penn's joke but the guy it was aimed at played it cool.
I always thought of Sean Penn as the kind of guy that would whine about a joke like that, tbh.
Except we're not writing articles about, got. So the first person to complain is no different than the person who complains because they're annoyed at the first person?
This may come as a surprise to you, but there are conversations about daily events happening outside of this website. So when I say I've heard or read something, there's a very good chance it happened somewhere other than The Club on SpursTalk.
The Oscars? Gonna have to start collecting some man cards around here.
right, other message boards. I'm talking about articles and blogs. You're comment that you've "heard more of that reaction today than I have from people actually outraged by the comment" is complete bull . You're comparing little message boards like this to ing articles in HuffPo, Salon, Jezebel, etc.
Who said anything about other message boards? I don't go to other message boards.
You seem to have a very limited view on where discussion happens. It's surprising, because you seem like a pretty socially-connected person with a lot of hobbies and interaction with people outside of the web.
I have heard more *about* the outrage than I've heard actual outrage about the comments. The sources vary... from articles/comments on social media, to radio coverage, to TV coverage, to actual live conversations with actual humans.
Maybe you haven't experienced the same, though I'm curious as to whether you came across the columns on Salon, Jezebel, etc. because you actually read those sites, or because someone like DarrinS pointed them out to you with a similar "lol, stupid liberals whining about racism again" take on the matter. Probably the latter, right?
Same way you always hear about what Al ing Sharpton is up to, right? Not because you follow Al Sharpton or give a what he says, but because every time he says something there are a 100 thousand conservative blogs who cover it.
CitizenFour (Best Do entary Winner) is playing right now on HBO, and it is boring so far. Snowden comes across as pretentious and seems high on the power from all the information he stole.
your point seems to be that the people like DarrinS, who complain about the whiners, are just as bad. They're not the initial complainers. They, like myself, want people to stop ing and consider context.
My point is they amplify complaints that a very very small amount of the population shares.
I made no comparison on who is as bad as anyone else. I think those articles are stupid.
Lol at the white actors using visine during the Selma song
Yeah, me laughing at them is "outrage".
More Oscar "racism"
"My wearing my hair in locs on an Oscar red carpet was to showcase them in a positive light, to remind people of color that our hair is good enough," she wrote. "To me locs are a symbol of strength and beauty, almost like a lion's mane."
Giuliana Rancic apologizes to Zendaya on-air over hair comment
The line crosser? After noting the heaviness of Zendaya's hairstyle in comparison to her recent pixie cut, she'd continued: "I feel like she smells like patchouli oil or weed. Maybe weed."
pffff. Ok, sweetie. Say that the other 364 days out of the year with your whitened out hair. The could easily play a white character with the right hairdo anyway. She's hardly a "sista representin her people"More Oscar "racism"
