Yea I wonder what Jim Norton is gonna say.

i think i've become so numb to ****** stormfront logic and verbiage being spewed that i'm actually more outraged by his attempt to act like the victim in the situation.

like how can anyone who isn't delusional not realize that getting righteously slapped in the face if you get caught is a risk you are signing up for when you creep around taking pictures of women's butts?

I wouldn't be so quick to assign rationality to a streetwalker - especially one that is, uh, clearly outside of Anthony's demographic and age range.

I believe that their interaction was incidental but I agree him playing the victim was an 'ol pissy eyes move. It's pathetic. The bones of it read like a Tumblr entry.

Lol, did you not read the tweets linked earlier in the gawker article?

Because if you did and still wrote this post, I got some bad news son, you are a racist.

It's kind a pathetic that the focus on the story isn't about the person that actually committed a crime but instead it's focused on a person that said a few bad things that aren't against the law.

You might not agree with what he said(I don't) but he did nothing wrong other than posting his comments for everyone to see.

It's pretty sad when words affect people more than actually hitting someone. Sticks and stones......

You are basically saying "Except for all the racist things he said, what did he say that was racist?"

You can say what you want about the media, but this is not a media creation. This is an Anthony creation. Any normal citizen would either defend himself if being attacked or go to police. But no, this guy uses a platform like Twitter to go on a racist rant (for hours) thinking everyone would come to his defense and take his side.

It's an argument that can't be won. It's way to easy to label someone a racist and walk away. I read the arrive and saw the tweets. Like I said you could say those things about anyone. He said she was black he said he was attacked because he was white. Was he stupid for being in the city and taking random pics of people..absolutely! He had no right to be assaulted or then ganged up on by 6 people total. He should have called the cops and let the chips fall where they may.

I'm gonna say I'm not a racist and you say I am, that's unfair, you don't know me. You don't know me, or all the men I call my brothers and will go into war with and shed blood with. When you play semi pro and flag football for 20 years you develop a United Nations of friends and brothers and I love them all, and they love me back.

He admitted on twitter that he never felt his life was in danger. A man Getting punched in the face by a woman usually gives no one a reasonable expectation of their life being on danger. Therefore, he had no reason or justification to pull his piece.

That women should be in jail (given what he said is true....his nonsensical post ranting doesn't make him the most rational/trustworthy witness) and he should prob be fired for somehow thinking that this women's behavior has anything to do with black people as a whole.

EDIT: The clincher is

RT @monobrowj: its women not black ppl -No, it's not. I've never been hit repeatedly by a strange white woman on the street. Don't lie.

I'm looking forward to this girl being identified. I just don't know if I'd rather she has a solid rap sheet or she's like a nurse who volunteers her time teaching autistics how to paint and reading to the blind.

I mean, if it makes you feel better, there is a decent likelihood you are just a massive idiot. If you read someone writing about how the blacks are violent animals and you think he isnt racist then you are one or the other.

Phill;

If posting in politics should have taught you anything by now it's that the real victims are those that are called racists.

is pretending that you're some combination of illiterate, virulently racist, and a complete moron something that kids enjoy doing to troll people on the internet now?

or do these types of people actually all have computers/smartphones now?

He had the opportunity, a very easy one to put into play, to make it about the person who committed the crime. Simple solution - walk away as soon as it's over, call the police or go to the nearest station (there was probably one within 1/4 mile given where this occurred), and file a report. Stay off Twitter and don't go on a berserk rant, and presto - he still has a job, no negative fallout, and material to work with on his show to last through the summer.

Instead, he made the idiotic choice to rant and rave in what was an obviously racist and offensive fashion. He now has to live with the consequences of that decision.

By the way, give me a break with your biased hyperbole. "Committed a crime". It's a woman who slapped him a couple of times. Boils down to misdemeanor simple assault. He's a grown man, I think he'll manage to survive the brutal injuries he suffered during this vicious attack which ranks up there with how bad I cut myself shaving this AM.

This same line of warped logic gets used by people like you every single time someone uses these types of insults. Fascinatingly enough, when "savage" or "animal" get used during a rant, they're exclusively by whites and about blacks. If you don't understand the obvious racial context that accompanies these words, I feel bad for you.

I guess you also think it's OK to drive drunk as long as you make it home without killing anyone or crashing your car.

It doesn't matter if she hit him 1 time and didn't leave a mark or hit him multiple times and bruised his face. A crime is a crime and she should have been arrested.

What he did on twitter was stupid but what she did was even worse, imo.

seriously tho, how horrible is your life that this is what you are reduced to doing in order to pass the time?

Says the person that made this post....

So this guy got slapped around by a chick because he was being an *******, and then he whines about it for hours on twitter?

That's hilarious.

Your opening sentence is possibly the worst analogy I've ever read.

The following paragraph is a complete strawman. You're arguing that I said she shouldn't have been arrested, which is the opposite of what I said. Also, it's factually incorrect. There is no such concept as "a crime is a crime". There are varying degrees of crime based on severity of incident. This would be considered an extremely minor one, ergo the resulting penalties would have been minor. Try like, watching a Law and Order ep or something.

Your closing sentence isn't relevant. We are not discussing which party performed the worse action. This is an Anthony Cumia thread about a show he's on, and his resulting dismissal from it. His actions are what we're analyzing here. What she did is for her employer and the police to deal with (as noted previously, Cumia stupidly ignored going this route when it'd have been correct to do so, instead electing to handle his problems via Tweeting lunacy).

Great post, though.

I don't understand this. He didn't make that post. I did. Typo?

Yea. It was a mistake. I got your names mixed up. Sorry about that.

The all powerful guy got slapped around by the weak, submissive chick, and he didn't even take it like his all powerful self was supposed to take it!

Hard for me to respect a man who doesn't stand by what he says or believes. Deleting his tweets isn't a good look. If you wanna say something be man enough to stand behind it, whether it's right or wrong. The deletion of the tweets makes me think he is coming back to Sirius.

Given the evidence we have it is reasonable to conclude her story of why the black woman hit the racist douche taking photos of her will be a lot more reasonable than what he is saying.
