Did Anthony explain how exactly the man with a stack of PBA cards and a cop personal assistant couldn't report an assault?

Because a white man can't get anywhere in OBAMA's AMERICA! She'll probably just scream rape when a cop comes. Savages.

Because he was taking creeper photos and there's only so much having a cop as a PA can do for a racist pedophile.

He didn't bother because the police and justice system favor black people over whitey. This literally was his explanation.

And she threatened to accuse him of sexual harassment which totally didn't happen you guys!

And one of the photos he posted to prove he wasn't being a creeper was literally him taking a photo of another girls rear end.

I really do wonder why he didn't call the cops. I mean there were all those witnesses both white and black that were watching. Why would they all turn on him?

If his story is true it's a pretty dumb thing to call the cops over, unless he was really messed up (he was not).

He wouldn't call a cop because he was drunk and carrying a handgun. I imagine that would put his carry permit up for review.

Doesn't hurling slurs and gendered insults at someone after they tell you to stop taking pictures of them qualify as sexual harassment? So she wouldn't even be lying.

That does not equal "being dumb to call the police on". If he has no marks on his face then it's a woman in a dress and heels's word versus a creepy looking older Italian man with a concealed handgun and DSLR's word.

Someone had to have called him and said, "Hey, maybe you should stop tweeting for a little bit so we can see how this thing plays out?" Why could he possibly feel the need to single-handedly turn something that nobody would have heard about into something much bigger?

Given that they're off, I imagine everybody was off doing vacation stuff.

Why he did this on Twitter,on the other hand, can only be answered with 'he's got rage issues, and is severely bigoted to the point where he cannot control himself when something like this happens.' Which is pretty scary, really.

It's going to be incredibly interesting if Anthony gets canned. They always seemed so hard on "HEH, loving OTHER LOSER rear end STATIONS GET CONTROLLED, NOT US MAAAAAAAAN" so when Anthony does get dropped are they going to desperatly buckle down and keep low or are they just going to rail on everyone and get themselves poo poo canned too.

All the media outlets they trashed hard for years are going with this. They have shredded the NYDN on the show. And if Harvey Levin puts up one of his question tweets this reaches peak irony.

I have bizarre feelings about this. I am a daily listener of the show, yet, I kinda want Ant to get fired? To me, the best scenario ever would be that this becomes a huge public thing, he DOESN'T get fired, and he gets so scared of losing his job that he never brings any of his stupid racial rants to the show again. That will never happen though.

It's not really bizarre. The show can be really loving funny, then Ant will just sort of drop into these rants and you realize "Oh yeah, this guy's a horrific racist. Well, it was fun while it lasted."

I feel the same way. I don't want Ant to lose his job, but I do want him to be humbled, mostly because his whole bigotry thing is played out to the point where it's becoming annoying. And to hear him playing the victim (and extending this madness) is just the icing on the annoying cake. And you know TMZ is going to ask exactly why he was taking pictures in Times Square around midnight.

At the very least he gets suspended and/or goes to rehab to save his job, anything other than that he's probably canned. There's SO MUCH out there on youtube for gawker, buzzfeed, tmz, whatever etc to pick up on.

Ever since the eugenics talk a year or so ago I knew it was a matter of time before something like this happened. The only thing that can save him is the 4th of July weekend and the fact that hardly anyone gives a poo poo about the show anymore. This isn't 2000-2007 anymore.

If Ant loses his job, how long until he's forced to sell his house? A while back in this thread, someone wrote that he's the only millionaire that lives paycheck to paycheck and that always made me wonder how hosed he would be in a situation like this.

It's been said a bunch of times already, but jesus christ, that eugenics segment is revolting. That's why I don't ever recommend the show to anybody I know, because how do you defend something like that? Large figures in the media have certainly been broiled for being racist before, but Ant is like, politically racist. I remember listening to an old clip where they interview this guy who ran a white power label, and the points the guy made in the interview are almost identical to the points Ant has made in recent years.

I just realized that the really sad thing about all this is:

If it weren't for Twitter, this would just be another funny "Obama president naaah" story, where he'd come in all grumbly, with racist--but hopefully funny--angles, and the boys would laugh at him.

But it's his drive to victimize himself as the poor defenseless (legal?) white guy that drove this into a spiral.

Shame, because as racist as that "Obama president naaah" story is, it's one of my favorite segments. Him being :supaburn: mad in front of the boys in a completely indefensible manner is, to me, one of the high points of the show.

The bit in question:

He doesn't really live paycheck to paycheck, it's an exageration that he blows a lot of money in stupid ways. These guys have been putting away 4 - 5 million every year since the 90's. If they lose their jobs they will still be just fine.

Yeah no doubt, that bit is funny as hell.

It sucks knowing what a hateful oval office Ant is, because when he used to just casually say racist poo poo it would come across like a dumb joke and there are bits (like the one I posted earlier) that are genuinely hilarious. It doesn't seem as funny when you listen to it knowing that he's not even really being ironic.

My favorite part in the eugenics clip is when he mentioned he was listening to something from "a certain site" and the air goes out of the room as everyone else present gives their own version of "oh not this again."
