NBA star J.R. Smith beat the living daylights out of a man who allegedly smashed his car window during the wild protests in L.A.

Good to see one of these vandals getting what he deserves - in this case at the hands of former Cleveland Cavs player JR Smith.

[Nifster]

I say good

[BigEdLB]

Car not a FedEx Truck. More direct intervention is neccessary

[Eagles6]

Gee, imagine a White guy had done this to a black vandal./sarc

[bort]

Sure, some black NBA player can kick a guy three times as hard as he can and punch him, and everybody’s like: “That white boy deserved it.” But a cop is trying to pin down a guy on drugs and the animals scream excessive force! Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t convict JR Smith of anything. Good for him, but I just laugh at the double-standard.

“One of these motherfu**king white boys didn’t know where he was going and broke my f**king window in my truck.”

That’s racist! Oh he’s black. Never mind.

Blue on Blue

I love the Jacaranda trees in LA when they’re in bloom.

So J.R. Smith is against property damage when it’s his own? Seems like this would have been a good time for him to speak out against damaging other’s property.

We need to turn away from professional sports.

Can’t blame JR Smith for reacting like he did. Hopefully that schmuck got an attitude adjustment to course correct.

[GLDNGUN]

I’ve watched JR play a lot of basketball, but that is the first I’ve ever seen him defending anything. LOL

Black Walls Matter.

We need to turn away from professional sports.

We need to RUN away. And RUN from all these moron celebrities who are paying bail for the criminal rioters. I wish I could get a busload of the rioters and drop them in the celebrity conclaves and say, "Have fun!"

[Phil DiBasquette]

They lucked out, sometimes he runs into other cars or people

[Mastador1]

I agree the Antifa clown deserved what he got, but Smith makes it sound like he would have been alright with it had it been a White persons vehicle...............just my read on his words.

[a fool in paradise]

Shouldn’t TMZ’s headline say “allegedly beats”?

[absalom01]

If people could step back for a second, and watch the behavior of the looters and rioters, they might understand a teeny bit of what the cops deal with on a daily basis.

[cherry]

I ask if this would have happend if the perp was black....and would we even hear about it then....

[blueplum]

excessive use of force. He should have politely asked the guy to stop what he was doing and offer him some tea, just like he expects the PD to do with someone doing something they shouldn’t be doing
