Pro tip: if you're gonna be a racist moron and douche nozzle, don't do it while seated in your business van that has your company's name and number on the driver's door.
One Jeff Whitman learned that the hard way when he followed Charles Lovett home after a traffic incident to call him a racial slur.
“So thank you for calling me a n----- and showing me how stupid you are,” Lovett says. “Have a good day, sir. Enjoy your life.”
Lovett posted the video on social media, and within hours, the Internet came calling on Whitman. How? He had spoken his mind from behind the wheel of his company van, with the name and phone number of his business right there on the driver’s side door.
The retaliation was immediate. If Whitman felt entitled to follow, confront and demean a stranger from the seat of his marked company van, thousands of strangers felt obliged to punish him for it.
They shared his image online, overloaded his voicemail and flooded consumer websites like Yelp with hundreds of negative reviews, complete with images of the Ku Klux Klan and Hitler.
Now Whitman is whining and making the usual excuses about;
- How he made a mistake.
- That he's not a bigot.
- How his life is ruined.
- How people are being so mean to him.
I fully expect that he'll soon graduate to some horse manure about how his 1st amendment rights are being violated because he got stupid.
