J.K. Rowling Shuts Down Homophobic Twitter Troll Perfectly

“JK Rowlings thinks shes tough. Stupid dyke,” the Twitter user, who reportedly had no followers, wrote.

The author has come under fire a number of times for expressing her political views on Twitter, but her responses are often priceless. Look at what happened earlier this month when another conservative Twitter user suggested Rowling, who resides in Scotland, relocate from the U.S.
