I am usually against internet crusades like these, and am pissed off that mob justice can get people canned. That woman who was flying to Africa and got canned before she landed was the worst one.
But:
A.) Dude was threatening to call ICE. That's deportation, tearing people lives apart, etc. He's got it coming. I wouldn't ask for him to be fired but if his life becomes a bit more difficult for a little while, then good.
B.) Mariachi bands own.

We must police ourselves. I hope he gets fired but I won't be calling his office or anything. It's absurd that this wasn't the first video of him either. And in New York City you're gonna go after supposed illegal immigrants? Yea you're gonna have a bad time.
I'm sure he can move to Oklahoma or somewhere just as red and get a job though. Which is sad but also brilliant. Because who the fuck actually wants to live in Oklahoma?

It's not even like the guy bumbled his way into this situation by telling a bad joke or expressing a semi-reasonable political point of view. Dude was straight up looking for a fight. His one and only reason for going on that rant because he heard someone at a store in New York City daring to speak a foreign language in his presence as if having multilingual staffs at stores is some sort of crime. How this man lives in New York City of all places without being in a constant state for triggeredness is a mystery to me.

Instead of protesting outside the apartment of some racist nobody, imagine if each of those people bought and donated three cans of food to a homeless shelter. Or went through their drawers to find clothes they could donate. Priorities, people! If they did that they would contribute a drop into the bucket of the homeless issue in America while doing absolutely nothing to address the underlying problems. Making people think twice before they spew hate speech on the other hand might (and I do mean "might") go some small way towards protecting vulnerable people in a more long-lasting way. I would agree if it didn't seem like we did this almost every day. We're constantly taking someone to task for something, I don't really see what the difference is here. If people want to boycott his business and leave bad yelp reviews, hey go right ahead. I think it gets to another level though when people take the time out of their day to go protest outside of his apartment. I'm not steadfastly against it, it just seems like there are a thousand other things that would be more productive.

There are "more productive" things to do than pretty much any activity under the sun. Americans have spent a collective 156 million hours watching Avengers: Infinity War. Is that a "productive" use of anyone's time? By many standards it would not be but that doesn't mean it's not worth doing.

My brother got an extra role on Mr. Mercedes! It's a series based on the Stephen King book, and is filming in Charleston, SC.
He said it was a lot of waiting around, but interesting to see the process.

The average human body has about 125,822 calories... ...just in case anyone was feeling hungry.

Everyone should agree on a specific time to set off fireworks. Listening to fireworks for 3 straight hours is very unappealing.

My parents forgot my wife's birthday. Didn't even acknowledge it. We've only been married for 13 years.

I went to the SHH forums the first time in forever today. How many sub forums does a website need? Why create new threads every 4 pages? Would an "Important Movies" part 67 make any sense?
