1. What is whiteys beef?

I hope we find out.

[Hortensis]

6. The media who lie about them. They're all lying "libs," you know.

And these days fine upstanding patriots like this one are getting dissed 24/7 by traitors.

8. He saw a "looter"... with a microphone, very expensive camera equipment...

and satellite feed. You know, Black guy standing in a storm zone. Gotta be suspicious amirite? Amirite? You know...n....

[Towlie]

9. You hope we find out? That's exactly what HE hopes.

2. Isn't that assault? Menacing? Domestic terrorism?

Look, that was bad, but what if that fucking guy had a gun? or a knife?
That kind of insanely aggressive behavior needs to be put down already.

Glad nothing happened, THIS time...

[BComplex]

3. The network needs to have this guy arrested.

He's definitely crazy, but he's also dangerous.

[rockfordfile]

5. I agree

That white guy should've been tased.

[Catherine Vincent]

4. Right wing nut job

Guarantee!

[Caliman73]

7. You can never tell, but judging from what I saw, a good quick left hook would have ended any threat.

Not advocating violence, but if someone is up in your face and acting a fool, you have a right to defend yourself. Shaq looks like a gentleman who can defend himself and the nut who ran up on him looks like he'd go down like a sack of potatoes.

Now, if there are weapons involved, then that changes everything.

Like Melvin said, LOT OF CRAZY OUT THERE.

17. have a right to defend yourself

(and sometimes that might be the prudent choice)
But, be aware that you could also be facing assault charges - unless you have clear evidence that somebody struck you first - and, even then, chances are that you're only 'cleared' after being arrested and booked.

10. And he's probably not vaxxed either.

Melvin said that Shaq was okay but the other guy was not... I hope that means he somehow found himself horizontal in a flash.

12. Read some about it on Daily Beast

https://www.thedailybeast.com/wacky-guy-angrily-confronts-nbc-news-correspondent-shaquille-brewster-during-live-hurricane-report

'Not alright' meaning whacked out racist nut job full of anger. My interpretation.

[2naSalit]

13. I'm sure you're right about that...

I was just hoping he got clocked at some point by someone, anyone.

[sheshe2]

15. Well ya, that to.

Would be icing on the cake!

[ZonkerHarris]

11. "wacky" no, committing assault, yes.

[2naSalit]

14. +1

[ananda]

16. Looks like a stupid conehead.

Sheesh

[IcyPeas]

18. Shaquille Brewster tweeted "Appreciate the concern guys. The team and I are all good!"

Geez you can't even report on the Weather without these yahoos harassing you... the weather!!

19. That's dude is crazy

I'm glad Shaguille wasn't hurt.

20. MAGAts: People who watch a 150MPH hurricane tear their homes to shreds...

but think the real problem is a black guy in their field of vision.
