I hope he beat that dudes ass off camera.

 

[El_TigroX]

He was too kind to use the forearm on that pushoff... I would have swung first.

 

[Slayven]

Flee the wraith of god or go ham on a dude trying to do his job?

 

[Magilla]

WTF? Why?!

 

[manzoman96]

What is wrong with people, no way he didn't see all the cameras around.

 

[Quinton]

What the fuck was this guy even on about? Typical racism? Some kind of anti-vaccine bullshit? I couldn't really hear him.

 

[mreddie]

I don't wanna assume but I'm guessing the white guy was a racist.

I think he said "accurately"

[platocplx]

What the hell is wrong with white people like this dawg?! Like what was the reason?!

 

[JEH]

So was he just mad that he was black or was it some "fake news" bs as well?

My guess is some Trumpist "NBC fake news enemy of the people" garbage.

 

[LegendofJoe]

A working, educated professional being accosted while black.

He handled that better than I would've.

If I had to guess I'd assume white guy saw he was NBC and being from Mississippi, likely a brainwashed Trump supporter, decided this was the right time to tell a member of the "MSM" what he thinks about them and did it. Of course I cannot discard that race wasn't a factor too but who knows. That sucks.

Probably both.

Yep maybe all of the above

What the what was that about?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Of course there's white people in the comments all "maybe he was asking for help they should have let him speak"

I heard the word accurately being yelled so I assume both.

When it's literally a fucking hurricane outside but you still gotta be racist right now.

There's a famous/infamous one of some dude, like, rocking out with an American flag when a hurricane hit Tampa, FL a few years back.

...my friend watched it play out in real-time from the relative discomfort of his living room window.

Push the guy out to sea and say the hurricane got him what a shame. /s

A little from Column A, a little from Column B most likely.

 

[cameron]

Dude repeatedly screaming shit about "accurately", so probably a racist MAGA loon angry at the black reporter and with zero self control.

 

[Sleepyhead86]

Dude in the truck looked exactly how I pictured... Good in the reporter doing a professional job.

 

[Aly]

Not even a Hurricane can cure racism.

 

[StrangeRoboMemory]

Man, he handled that with a lot of grace and calmness, I wouldn't be that cool when some idiot comes barrelling at me looking like Alex Jones hurtling himself towards the MREs and freeze dried spaghetti in his fallout shelter after a bad day in court.

Mississippi and Louisiana were decidedly NOT settled by the best and brightest. They know deep down they're trash, it's a big reason why they love having someone to look down on.

Same thing I was thinking.

"Jesus I gotta drive home and check we have enough suppli-IS THAT A BLACK MAN?! Not on my fucking watch!"

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

This is no different than running up to someone at their cubicle and accosting them. The man was in his workplace. The guy should be arrested.

 

[Tom Nook]

WTF?

Pickup truck, confronts black man for doing his job, Mississippi...yup, the perfect concoction for a racist outburst.

 

[Ghgghggh]

White people can you please work harder to help your community. This has been far beyond embarassing decades ago. FFS.

 

[It’s Reyn Time!]

Watching the first video, I instinctively knew there'd be a pickup truck nearby and as soon as I heard that trademark raspiness in his voice I knew it was a white Trump cultist incapable to speaking in anything less than a yell.

 

[thesoapster]

Dude reminds me of Alex Jones.

 

[jroc74]

Imagine being in the middle of a ...fucking hurricane...and going on one about....fake news....

Wtf is wrong with ppl....

Show this same energy when actual fake news is being pushed out there. Then again, we all know what they consider real and what they consider fake...

Like....is the white guy claiming the hurricane is...fake news...?

 

[Lifendz]

As a black man, I'm not sure I could do a live spot in the south for any news outlet at this point without having something to protect myself…at least mace.
