Bill Maher: “The surprise is that someone hasn’t choked this bitch sooner.”

Can we be surprised? Via the Frisky, according to Bill Maher, choking a woman is A-OK if she’s an annoying, promiscuous publicity whore, right?

Said Maher:

New rule: stop acting surprised someone choked Tila Tequila! The surprise is that someone hasn’t choked this bitch sooner.

And I don’t give a rat’s ass what actually happened with San Diego Charger Shawne Merriman that night; where the charges are true or not, it doesn’t make jokes about violence against women acceptable. It’s never acceptable.
