My fellow capitalists: If you laughed at Kelley Lynn’s ‘Occupy Wall Street’ mockery video, then send her money

October 19, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Arnie showed me this hysterical video the other day and I said, “OpieRadio — that has to be Opie & Anthony, and some woman they sent to mock the protesters.”

Sure enough, the woman is a comic named Kelley Lynn, as I found out in this HotAir thread.

The thread led me to her twitter account @LameCelebTweets; she follows celebrities then RT’s their tweets after adding her own mocking commentary.

I was sitting here laughing at these and RT’ing them to my followers…

RT: @iamdiddy dinner w/ loved ones. thank u God/ My family died in a fire. I prayed 2God, but he was 2 busy w/ur stupid dinner. Thx asshole.

When I clicked on her “real” account.

And learned that Kelley’s husband, a veteran and paramedic, died suddenly and unexpectedly only a few months ago, at age 46.

So I went from laughing out loud to bawling.

This is Kelley Lynn’s brutally frank blog about her husband and her grief.

This woman deserves a book contract.

For now, if you enjoyed her video, I’m asking you to consider sending her even $5 or $10 through PayPal.

That’s capitalism, people!
