Yup.
TMZ is owned and run by a Trumper who wanted nothing more than to sway Trumps first election. He wanted to have a close relationship to that President. The comments section on TMZ promotes some of the most asinine racism you can find.
Employees have left due to the ever increasing conservative political agenda. A well liked black reporter there previously layed hands on and threatened a smarmy Trumper after an on air segment. In other words, shit is getting real. Words hurt. That same reporter had the intelligence to respond to bat shit crazy Kanye West's (live on TMZ comments) about slavery being a choice in a calm, thoughtful, educated yet direct way.
Ask yourself how Trump buddy Levin just happened to get Kanye on his show to say that?
A family member's good friend has a child who was an on camera reporter there in the beginning. They now work for a huge, family owned sports entertainment company that would be considered conservative and pandering to 'Murica. It's a step up.
What I saw in that video was a multimillionaire with an entourage of sycophants admit that he chased the "white boy" down to beat him up over a broken window he can easily replace a million times during a protest over brutality towards people of color with less resources than himself. Anyone who lived through the LA riots and has watched this past weeks video footage of black students being tayzed and dragged out of their car in Atlanta or looks at the pictures of the black grandmother shot point blank between the eyes with a rubber bullet, lying on the ground with it embedded into her head in La Mesa, CA (a college town) knows nothing has changed. The Los Angeles Police Chief said yesterday that the George Floyd protesters were equally responsible for his death. The white police chief of the city whose cops brutalized Rodney King and started the LA riots can't even hide his racism on camera. Why would he when we have a President tweeting out hatred incessantly?
That player has lost his way and his community is going to let him know. Had he been in the truck, it'd be self defense. Had his family been near, one might understand. But he doesn't say that. He was safe with his bros and chased after that young man.
The buddy trying to block the video saying "protect his privacy" is a fucking idiot. Los Angeles has more fucking idiots than any other place I have ever been. The celebrity and wealth culture there is a sickness.
That player is deep in the sickness. Get a new window and move the fuck out of the way would've been the sane reaction.
Look up Chino Hills protest on twitter to see a white, racist bastard holding a "Fuck Black Lives Matter" sign attack young, black men at a Black Lives Matter protest and get the ass whipping he was literally begging for to see some actual street justice.
Scum of the Earth.
