Now I'm curious about the article on yahoo :(

This is excellent!

For the love of God, when will people understand this?

ahaha she made his day :D

She's the only person to lose her "billionaire" status because sh gave so much to charitable causes etc

i love this! the classiest response she could possibly give. i was never a fan of the harry potter saga but i find myself really liking ms. rowling.

By labeling him a "Lone Wolf", the media's dismissing the crime as something conceived and cultivated in his mind alone, and is not reflective of a broader culture against Muslims, or influenced in any way by violent and/or hateful ideology. By not calling him a terrorist, they're protecting said broader culture from scrutiny and placing it squarely on the individual. If this were done on behalf of other terrorists of other races, Islamophobia wouldn't grow into the monster that it is. So, yes -- it's fair to call him a terrorist, inasmuch as it's fair to call any person who kills innocent people a terrorist, regardless of their motivation for doing so.

His father will hear about this

Never indulge in a "grammar-off" with a world renowned Brit Novelist, ya big lummox!

I may not agree with her political views, but NO ONE will f**k with her or her followers! She gifted me the best teenage years with Harry Potter!!! STFU

this is GENIUS

so true

This. A million times this! Anyone who claims to be a HP fan but then thinks this way clearly missed the entire message. It makes me wonder what the hell they liked about the books then. Was it just all the surface stuff like the magic?

Bravo & Well said Ms Rowling.

She's so sweet with her fans!

She said... "When I WORKED for Amnesty International", and what did he do? She didn't even go for it in her come-back reply. Seems to me she's done more than just "talking politics".

Haha! "No Nothing!" More like "Know Nothing"! hehehehe

She is cool, Johnathan just doesn't want to accept it.

she sounds like professor McGonagall here :D

Well, that's some straight-to-the-point advice. Love it!

"Polishing Corgis" :-D Bwaahaha! Oh this made my day!

*Mic Drop Rowling*

"We"...Yes!

She is just honest, I love her reactions. Sharp as a knife.

Oh no! Not some rando on the internet!

None of us are pure breeds, we all come from somewhere originally. ...Idiot!

Lol!!! She basically said she was 'cold blooded'..

Imagine how over half of Americans feel right now. We're like the mom of the guy who committed mass murder on the 11 o'clock news trying to apologize.

"You will appreciate DJT soon". Oh thy baseless optimism.

Lol! Love it! XD

seems like something Rita skeeter would write..."JK Radcliffe" LOL

I'm from Ireland, and we wouldn't put up with that bigoted s**t.

Voldemort as least was intelligent, an had dignity and a chilling kind of style. But I'm not sure if I'd rather have him as a president - probably not; he would do things too systematically. True evil.

I think when it comes to movies, because they try to be more "realistic", they have this sort of "unwritten rule" of staying closer to the character descriptions, where in stage performances, appearance-related differences are generally not important, unless specific to the social situations around the character (i.e. If the play / musical concerns race relations, you don't want, say, the persecuted black American character played by a Chinese guy or something, lest the audience get very confused.)

This is perfect. Not only is her sheer bluntness genius, but she's standing up for the perfect things

Lol. I love u, JK, but technically... the egg is white... it's the background that's orange. *sheepish grin*

Why doesn't he/she just type "your" and "you". It's already an introduction to a battle that's impossible for Rowling to lose.

Beautiful reply

#SassyArmy level JKR! 💖💖

I would love to see the faces of the people that send those dumb a*s remarks in,as they read her comeback!!! Priceless!!

People with problems know how is feels, and if they've overcome them, they know how to get rid of them.

Another one of those "you smell" insults.

Lol!!

Another one who spells Slytherin with an 'i'.

Maybe that Rob guy has a nice a*s and tits.

This is so true. For years I kept quiet because I didn't want to involve myself in a ridiculous political argument. I think a good portion of my countrymen felt that way. Now look where we are. It's going to be a long 4 years, and we're going to have to fight every second of it.

And I played Pokemon with my kids. Good for her!

It's funny that she told us to judge america

I'm guessing maxi pads and tampons... like us normal girls...

I can't tell if the person is FOR or AGAINST abortion, but I can tell that they didn't quite understand the point of the film Vera Drake.

I'm kind of confused by the relevance of this quote. I would've quoted the U.S. Constitution, since it was rather explicitly written by guys who mostly didn't care much for the Bible. Amendment 1 of the Constitution says this: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" which seems decidedly more on-point.

I kept thinking "Nerd" was the username of someone who linked to J.K. Rowlings post. Imagine my confusion untill I realized someone had called her a nerd, as if it's a bad thing o.O

God damn, will these people stop with this dichotomous view of Liberals vs. Conservatives?

By Murdoch's loony thinking, all men must therefore be responsible for every rape

If it's 'just words', let's see Trump's reaction if someone came up to his wife and said (using just words) "Melania, I would love to grab your p...y". No, it's not 'just' words.

Good lord (thats all i could come up with.) Seriously stop JRC its not real! Man people have too much time on their hands.

Thought they meant the Leonardo DiCaprio (drooool) movie.
