in December has taken the first step toward filing a lawsuit alleging defamation of character and emotional distress.
A video of the haircut went viral and drew widespread condemnation, including from New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, Olympic wrestler Jordan Burroughs andIt showed Johnson looking dejected as a trainer from his school, Buena Regional High, sheared his dreadlocks.
and the state interscholastic athletic association barred him from officiating at meets pending the outcome of the two investigations.
Poor little Maloney; thoughts and prayers. 🙄
His prejudice ass was dead wrong. Who cares about his feelings. Did he consider that poor kids feelings when he made him cut his hair before his match?
Jealousy from being bald.
'Wait, I'm a white man possibly facing consequences for my actions?! I thought voting Trump meant that was over!'
Boo hoo!
It's illegal to be white
Good. The only thing racist about this is all the people calling him racist. I'd make all NFL players cut that shit off or risk getting dragged down by it without it being a penalty
He is a complete ass. If the family of that boy doesn't sue him I would be surprised. Not only would I sue him I would shave the rest oh his hair off.
Is it fair for the ref to press charges? Is this event an example of subtle racism and double standards? 10230778
Im white and I know that this is bs. This high school student didnt have to cut his hair. The ref is racist plain and simple
We're all his feels hurt? Awe, poor doughy white guy baby.
Omg. What a disgusting thing to do.
That’s the rules in wrestling... it wasn’t racist. I have had to get my hair cut like a goofy, LEGO headed dork by my coach when I was in wrestling because it was to long. Either that or he should have wore a hair cover like the women do when they compete in high school.
SableoftheSouth As should the young wrestler.
He's gonna HATE discovery.
Who is getting sued by him? He only has a shot if he gets Manafort’s model citizen judge. And If he did all the right things he should have nothing to worry about. A varsity wrestler and his coach know the rules.
This referee did his job correctly. The wrestler's hair was not pinned down correctly. If he lost it the week before, too bad. Buy new equipment or don't wrestle. If this kid wrestled and got seriously hurt, that ref could be sued for allowing him to wrestle.
VulgarEconomics Unreal. What about the student’s distress?
Only in the USA.
Oh please. I read two lines of this story, said my peace and moved on. Maybe you just don’t have any character.
How do you defame a character that you don't have? And his emotional distress was brought on by his own actions. Good luck with that lawsuit. Is he related to Devin Nunes?
So then the wrestler should sue him for the same thing!
Oh, boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-f*cking-hoo. Snowflake racists love to dish out the hate, but sure as fuck can't take it when they're called out for it. These ppl make me want to vomit. I'm so fed up.
He caused his own distress by being a 💩
alexia - show me white privedge...
F his distress, the wrestler was forced to cut his hair or be disqualified. The nerve of this ref is beyond belief.
It’s actually, definition of character
Is he suing himself then?
I read the headline, re-read it, and then again, and I was still wondering why anyone would order a child to cut their hair, I'd never allow a child to cut my hair let alone order them to. Then I read the story, thanks headline writer, I feel a right idiot
Emotional distress 😂 😂
Maybe he should just stop being awful?
Boo-freakin-hoo!
What character? In a just America, any judge who catches this case dismisses it as frivolous IMMEDIATELY. Alas...
So he’s suing all of Society for having an opinion?
Trump’s America
Oh, now he's distressed!😂
So Is he suing everyone who called him a racist Because he is. So, where’s the defamation?
Maybe he and DevinNunes can cut a deal to share lawyers who rep butt-hurt babies
Is he using Devin Nunes' lawyer?
I’m sure the one who suffered emotional distress was the kid who had to cut his hair by force.
What’s the word Trumpers like to use for hurt feelings? Snowflake.
He has been horrible since the 90s..... know all about this guy
Is this a joke? We now have racists filing lawsuits for people not enabling them to be racists. This is the vileness that realDonaldTrump has brought to the surface and the GOP has supported.
❄️
Boo. Effing. Hoo.
donohue_rebekah This looks like a job for AryaResists and RatioRoundup.
Let me guess, he is a cousin of DevinNunes or he at least shares the same lawyer.
So the ref is taking the first step in filing a lawsuit for 'emotional distress and defamation of character'? Look here,Alan Baloney,YOU were the one who forced that young man to cut his hair..sounds like you're jealous that he has more hair than you do! Suck it up,crybaby!
❄️ ❄️ ❄️ ❄️
SERIOUSLY?!
senraba Maybe he should look at his feelings about young black boys with dreadlocks. Maybe bald referees need to wear a scarf cuz bald referees suck!
Is this another lawsuit bankrolled by the Federalist society? Paging Clarence Thomas.....
It ain’t defamation if you can back it up, ref.
Anybody can sue. Winning is much harder as Trumpsters have learned.
donohue_rebekah Whatever happened to decency?
It's always the bully that claims to be the victim.
It seems I'm going to be saying bullshit a lot today...
His character deserves defaming. What he did to that young wrestler is totally wrong. I hope no judge seriously considers this complaint.
Hair grows back. Unless you're the ref. 😁
He was wrong, and now he wants to sue for defamation because the public calls him 'out' on it. Please!!, he did this to himself.
HE HAS A TOUGH CASE PROVING DEFAMATION, AS IT IS ON CAMERA
clear case of follicle envy on the ref's part
What character?
gardengirlove What about the youth, I am tired of these poor me adult males. This is trickle down affect from our pres.
Trending: suing the public for what they think of you based on your actions.
Being around the sport my whole life I’ve never seen a matside haircut. Ever. That inspection occurs during weigh ins. Any defense he brings forward citing hair length and natural state is irrelevant as process and procedure were not followed. In summary, he was wrong.
Wrestling season begins in December- this kid wrestled for over 3 months with no issues. Now this guy wants to cry and sue? He could have handled situation completely different. GTFOH alwaysthevictim
I'm surprisingly siding w/ the ref. Just b/c other refs let him wrestle b4 w/o head covering or regulation length hair, does not mean they should have. It's like me being late to work & after a week my boss yells at me & I file a complaint that she yelled me b/c I'm fat.
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
I wonder if making someone cut off all their hair because of some fake (and racist) 'rule' could cause 'emotional distress'?
Someone’s feelings got hurt? Aww.
Snowflake
Maybe he should just borrow dotards wig?
He received what he deserved nothing.
It won't take long to dig up some dirt on this racist bastard. That shit just stews right beneath the surface, then it comes out in sick ways! And may I ask why no adults came to the young man's defense? Everybody just sat there and watched?
What a sad sad angry man. Winning
there’s that white privilege again.
He force everything on himself.
Somebody call the wahmbulance 🚑🚑🚑🚑🚑
I don’t care, do you?
We all saw it. So.
I want to get on that jury.
Oh please
Lmaooooo
Are you kidding me
Baldy please
Bless. His. Heart.
🙄
He brought it on to himself, nobody but him has a problem with the Wrestlers hair.
LMAOOOOO
Ugh !
me looking for fuck to give about his feelings
Pretty sure your character didn’t need to be defames, it was shit before we knew you.
In my son's wrestling there was a strict rule about the length of the hair and no beard
It happens so infrequently so white men don’t know how to endure consequences for their behavior.
So, he's suing...himself? AsshatsGonnaAsshat
whiteness at work. also - we can see why he doesn’t like an abundance of hair.
Someone please tell me this is the ONION we are reading! 😳
🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿
Well he must not know a lot about what's going to happen if this goes to court because they're going to dig awfully deep into his life when they start to depose him and I have a feeling this kind of guy doesn't want that at all
OMG! I just realized that the ref is bald!!
Why do I feel like theres another side to this story that isn't being told
He’s emotionally distressed? Really? OMG
Screw that 🐖
frivolouslawsuithypocrite
You can’t defame what he doesn’t have.
Wait a minute, this is the guy who traumatized a young athlete in front of his peers...who has emotional distress?!
Boofuckinghoo 😐
Get that man some dreads
Please, that asshole was wrong, the wrestler had the required head gear to compete and he should be fired!
Nah. Fu*k that guy.
Please tell me he had more hair than this before, because that would be just fabulous.
So perpetrators now double down on bad behavior and claim they're the victims. This is a familiar pattern now.
I volunteer to conduct the cross-examination of this guy!!
Oh, boo hoo. He acted in a racist, culturally insensitive way. He needs to accept the consequences.
Poor thing.
🤔Wait, was this the same guy that reports confirmed had biases against certain individuals or groups. Now saying he's stress
Denied next case
pinata1138 Caused by himself! Go for it “time to make the donuts” guy!
this guy is totally Nunesing himself. should have disappeared into the short memory of the outrage machine, dude.
Are they going to use the same PR & law firms as covingtonlawsuit CovingtonBoys covingtoncatholic? 🤔 The ❄ racist referee was 100% wrong & is 'defamed' by his own actions. Wish his distress was from a conscience & not from feeling entitled to treat others as 'less than'
Thoughts and prayers...yeah right. Too damn bad loser.
IridescentAshes That wrestler should sue that ref.
Seriously? Disgusting display of the same character we saw at the match.
MelaniePutz Thought he was so macho and now he is showing what a wuss he really is. No sympathy.
Fu*k him.
Earning the title of racist through deliberate actions causes anxiety🤔. Appropriate 🤷🏾♀️
He sure felt like a big man making rules up on his whims. F**k this guy.
Huh. This douchebag’s own hair was so embarrassed, by his racist and privileged behavior with that young athlete, that half of it has abandoned him completely.😈
Bastard 😬😦😤
How about the judge just spits in his face and dismisses the case, making him pay for everything.
He’s the DevinNunes of high school wrestling.
Man talk about PEAK fragility.
Maybe he should smile more. That would make him feel better.
He wouldn't have asked a white wrestler to cut his hair! RacistRef
😂😂😂
There was no defamation. He did it and he was the one with the power. So it’s not a winner.
Defamation of character Wtf is wrong with him You made a young man cut his damn hair and you have a history of this. Mercy!
🙄🙄
Continuing to be a jackass... Have a heart to heart with the man in the mirror, dude.
Oh boohoo... 😭
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Purrfect
He's bald Jerry bald!!
Against who? The story was true. How was he defamed by being reported on? Don’t like the attention? Be better. Be best. Go to therapy instead of blaming everyone else.
I know a girl who wrestled, and a ref made her cut her hair or forfeit. People suck
Good grief! 🤦🏼♀️
Don’t ya need character in the first place before it can be defamed?
It was only a matter of time....
He will lose.
Too damn bad, racist.
People are suing People for anything these days. This world doesn’t surprise me !
NotoriusNormani Good luck with that🤓
Is he a Covington high Alumni?
Emotional distress against who? That kid should be filing emotional distress against him. What a complete idiot.
lionqueen1952 Oh good God, does the fragility never stop? Why can’t people accept the consequences of their actions and choices?
Grow up dude. You've already embarrassed yourself enough.
Does he have a cow 🐄
Scumbag was probably just jealous that that kid had hair
No.
The nerve
Dreadlocks stink
Let him eat cake in a workhouse.
Why don’t we forcehim to cut if his sideburns - ooops! I meant what little hair he has left 😂
I’m sorry who is suing who?
Please. 🙄
The bald referee, overcome with his own racism, unable to force a match forfeiture due to a wrestlers ethnicity, settles for ordering a wrestler to cut his dreadlocks. The referee files a lawsuit due to his experiencing hurt feelings.
WTAF
Snowflake
So what does he think his actions did to that boy? He needs to pull up his big boy pants and act like a man.
Oh good grief.
Eff him!
Was he forced to go bald?
If any1 the kid that had their hair cut should be suing for defamation of character & emotional stress...
Yes, because when you do something wrong and get in trouble for it, everyone else is at fault and someone must pay you for being a d***
Hair envy.
Why would anyone listen to a high school referee?
Imagine the distress the kid felt just before his match. Be a man and take the hit. You asked for it.
Is the Cows brother
Has he googled Devin Nunes in the last 24 hours? Please file that suit. I look forward to watching the internet savage the fuck out of this guy
EvaChanda Racists cry for being called out for their racism
Wait...WHAT
WTF did that young man's hair have to do with his 'emotional distress!!?'
Lol. Good.
And I am suing the referee because his portrayal of 'Mean Gene' Okerlund is a slap to all WWF fans EVERYWHERE!!!! 😑
The referee is delusional.
People who lack intelligence and grasp power from any place they can to use for the shortcomings in their own life. How many matches did the young man have prior to this one? Adults show our youth how to solve and not create. Clearly an abuse of power on adolescent athletes
The face only a mother could smack! Disgusting person! karmaisabitch
🖕
I didn’t even know what the dumbass looked like before. But now that he’s filing suit, he’s giving himself way more negative exposure.
Ya know i don't agree with what happened but i hope he wins just too annoy the hell out of all you snowflakes.
He’s still reffing?!
Oh please
He has something against hair 😒
I've heard of 'hirsute', but 'hair suit?' 🤔😁
oh sweet mary jo jones
Wow. How about that poor kid who was totally demeaned & humiliated?
MyraDSirois1 THE TRUMP TREASURY DEPT JUST MADE IT EASIER FOR EMPLOYERS TO CANCEL WORKERS PENSION BENEFITS!! HOW LONG?
If he's enforcing the rules which is his job then if people claim he's racist that is a bit harsh. You can't call people racist everytime they say something to a black person.
Third time I’ve found it necessary to post this gif today. Here’s his attorney.
He needs his behind kicked
Ummm didn’t he use the N word and it wasn’t the first time he had done that
Lmao..
Demagogues easily have their feelings hurt. They also don’t believe in the first amendment.
Rules are rules y’all are nuts
The f*cking nerve! I hope when he loses he is made to pay everyone’s legal fees!
Awww...thoughts and prayers, to him.
Is this how a snowflake acts?
Poor, sad clown
He must be some kin to DevinNunes and realDonaldTrump .
He has no character to be defamed. Totally inappropriate behavior.
Thoughts and prayers.
Suck it up, buttercup.
Poor baby racist
Shameful
For the bald ❄️ 🤣
I sometimes wonder, if when people did stuff like this, if they just said they were wrong and apologized, that would be better for everyone. But, he can't just say 'sorry I was wrong', nope.
Narrator: Guy who was jealous of a kid with hair is upset people called him out on his shit
❄️
What a bold racist piece of s*it.
A frivolous lawsuit is directly from donnie’s playbook!
He’s lowest of the lows.
I think he should have to prove his suffering was greater than the child whose hair he cut...
Another snowflake😂😂
This is so upside down
The wrestler should be thinking about filing a lawsuit against the referee.
Wah wah wah.
😂😭🤣🤦♀️🙄🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️There's Zero mercy for this wicked.
Poor baby! The angry white men are winning in every area - they own corporations, local, state & national governments, the courts... They’re the Golden State Warriors, but they’re never satisfied. He can miss me with his bullshit!
Emotional distress? Weren’t we aiming for professional distress, embarrassment, and resignation? Sorry if we were a bit off target.
He hasn't seen emotional distress yet. And the fact that he's pursuing this lawsuit is proof he's seeking emotional distress. And that, I believe, undercuts the entire premise of his suit.
🙄
Racists such snowflakes these days.
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
Emotional distress?! Next time, LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE!
Just throwing this out there, but try not being a garbage human.
Popehat is it a good idea to name the state attorney general as a defendant in your civil suit? Seems like no, right?
When trumpies get accused of doing what everybody saw them do they get all fragile
hes just jealous of his hair
Is he suing America?
He shouldn’t have a job and the child and his family should be suing him! Shame on him.
The snowflakes are piling up.
Wait. Don't you have to have character in order for it to be defamed?
throw it out, frivolous lawsuit time. he CAUSED emotional distress
Mr. Whipple has sure changed alot...
Men triggered by hair is story that never ends. Peter the Great chopped hair & beards off courtiers. Nazis did same to Jews. In the 70s, my uncle & his two sons fought a bitter, sometimes physical, war over long hair. The distress this ref inflicted has rightly come full circle.
Screw him.
WWM
Where’d he learn that victim thing?
Boo Hoo Hoo.
Should be a wrap. He has no character and he’s tacky enough to be defamed.
Why are all these guys ginormous wussies?
Speechless
He was just jealous of the kids hair.
take a hike joe
Just imagine how the wrestler felt. No pity for the referee.
Oh poooe baby, maybe he should be put in that poor wrestlers shoes for a few days and really see what it feels like
No one forced this MAN to do anything. He is being a whiny bith
Good luck with that. smh
The douchery is high in this one.
This is an ancient shaming ritual practiced on enemies, traitors, witches, male and female. That the violator is suing over public humiliation is irony on acid.
He’s despicable. I’m actually thrilled he’d suffering consequences. What he did to that boy was totally uncalled for and humiliating.
pgmckim We can see from that picture WHY he wanted a wrestler to cut his hair.
You bald rascal!!!!!
This guy deserves nothing. Im sick of people suing aimlessly like Trump does. What a horrible disgusting sad role model.
When you CAUSE emotional distress, you don’t get to then CLAIM it.
This is clearly a case of hair envy...
Emotional distress?
Does he believe this will make him appear any better?
White privilege is a hellova drug
White supremacist suing because they're not being allowed to be white supremacist LMAO!
Has the petition been filed yet? If so I want to see his claims
Technically, the dreadlocks would be a disadvantage in wrestling for whoever is sporting the dreadlocks. I don't think a ref should force a competitor to not incur a self-imposed strategic disadvantage on themselves If a ref makes up their own rules on the fly, he doin it wrong
Empnew He needs to get with DevinNunesCow . It's ridiculous. He should feel lucky that I was not that child's mother. No one is going to entertain that.
Sigh 😒
aw, was it upsetting to you? poor baby 😪
How are frivolous claims like this even allowed to happen? He’s the one who caused emotional distress in that little kid whose hair he cut.
Snowflake. What about the poor kid who was forced to cut his hair before YOU allowed him to play. Grow up
Another fragile white man. Seriously, how did he get this far in life?
He didn't force the kid to cut his hair. He gave him a choice. He followed the rules. Don't like the rules then change them.
That's rich. Smh
I was wondering what happened to Mr Whipple
He was just jealous of his locks. 😀
Empnew I hope the young athlete's parents sue this guy!
Spare me
How do you think the poor wrestler feels?
He ain't seen nothing, yet. Is he on twitter?
Send that nazi to prison for child abuse instead.
Another of the dozens of whites to get caught being racists then sued
Screw him.
Oh boo hoo! Maloney was in the wrong from the start! He knows it!
I have emotional distress from being locked up in the County Jail on some BULLSHIT. FILING A FALSE POLICE REPORT IS A CRIME. JUST ASK JUSSIE FROM EMPIRE. DOUBLE STANDARD FOR COPS
I
NO
Looks like Spacely Sprockets.
Cut his dreads dat kid knew d rules
Who is he gonna sue? Every single person in the USA who thinks he was a shithead for doing what he did?
Good luck with that...
Just another racist ...
Good for him. Hope he wins. FormerWrestler
He can go to hell.
Notice how bullies become victims when called to the mat.
Deutsche Bag....
Look at his bald head.. Most probably he was jealous of the young mans beautiful hair..
Shouldn’t it be the other way around? The father of the child should counter sue.
What about the wrestler’s distress? He could have lost the match because of the coach’s demand. Did the coach have a sideline bet that he needed to ensure the wrestler lost? That which is done in the dark will come to light and truth crushed to the earth shall rise again✝️✝️✝️
What happens when a dick decides, 'gee, how can I get dickier?'
If you do something horrible that is recorded and seen by many who agree it was horrible, how is that grounds for a lawsuit?
Saintsfan5348 He has emotional distress over this? Please, thekid he did this toois the one who was distressed. This man just didn’t realize there would be consequences, do now he’s being a big baby.
Shouldn’t the lawsuit be filed against him?
😩😩😩😩
It’s not defamation if you actually are the arsehole everyone says you are.
The parents should sue the ref.
He’s filing a lawsuit? Oh..this is gonna be good
These people have a message for you, Ref...
BooThePhuckHoo! He’s just another opportunist who lacks self-awareness. When the abuser becomes the victim...
A lawsuit should have been filed against him
Snowflake
From the look of his head, he may have just been jealous.
What the actual fuck
Boo. Effing. Hoo.
Once again the perpetrator is a victim. Give me a break. 🙄
Oh please! Emotional distress? What about poor kid?
🖕🏽🖕🏽
Ftg
He should’ve thought about the consequences of making him unjustly cut his dreads. No one feels sorry this guy
He got all his hair. The nerve.
Lmmfao white people, bruh
Is he filing it against EVERYONE that gave him shit😂😂
Uh, he is the one who defamed his own character. AND if you are going to stand on your beliefs, please be sure that you have the internal fortitude to stand up and defend them. If not you need to rethink what you believe in. You want to be a badass and a bully, then back it up.
Hhahahahaha!
this poor oppressed gentleman
You have GOT to be kidding me! He was the d**k that caused the problem. And, it wasn't his first time at the racist rodeo. He should be on the receiving end of a lawsuit from the student's family.
It's 2019, can we please use the term LOCS as a descriptor. Dreadlocks is both offensive and outdated. Just an FYI... locs notdreadlocks
Isn't this the same referee that was calling another coach the n-word
fuck that knockoff mario brother
White fragility and privilege 😡
Old man thinks he belongs to a superior race but doesn't understand how the world works
You can’t be the victim and the bully! Nobody’s buying it.
Oh please. He assaults someone and is upset about the backlash? He needs to seek professional help to come to terms with what he did.
No one settle.
Thats a total joke
So this ref not onky made the kid cut his hair off for no reason now gwts to force the family into debt to hire a lawyer to defend themselves cause HE was injured? Where is the GoFundMe for the wrestler's legal fund?
BMLewis2 Of course the white male ref is suing someone for HIS OWN bad behavior. It’s hard for the entitled white male to be accountable for his actions. He’s got the best role models telling him to deny wrongdoing in order to hold onto power. Kavanaugh realDonaldTrump DevinNunes
If you think this guy is wrong u know nothing about the written rules of wrestling.
Bullshit lawsuit! This is how a racist deflects blame.
Inspired by Devin Nunes’s lawsuit
Who exactly is he suing, the whole world? SMH
It can't be defamation of character if the shit people say is true. He's an actual shit person.
He should be the one sued. There's tape, ya know.
Please stop acting like the r-word is the same as the n-word. Calling a racially motivated act racist is not defamation of character; it is an accurate description of the facts.
He’s a worthless individual
Aww poor bigots
I'm amazed he's not using twitter, since this was a hotbed of his 'defamation.'
Snowflake was more projection?
Really? He didn't like 'himself' doing things and being shown doing such things. It's a big HUH? He's so special. Maybe, it wasn't him?
Nope !!!!
Thoughts and prayers
Why didn’t a single adult step in on defense of this kid. He had zero right to demand anyone cut their hair. I hope this kid sues the shit out of this ref.
FFS! Now HE’S the victim?
The criminal has become the Victims
His defense: Hair Envy
That kid should sue him, the school & the entire school system.
Litigious turd.
Forever the victim.
Wasn't there just a case like this in high school with a female ref?
HE needs to be sued!
What an sorry excuse of a human.
Safe space
Oh good grief. Obvious conclusion: wimps should not be referees. Be an adult and take responsibility for your mistakes.
Racist says what?
wth?! unfreaking believable 🤬
Oh please, oh please let me on that jury. Hey, racist ref's lawyers, middle age white guy over here, I would NEVER find against your client and further find he should be fed to rabid wolverines.
Of course. It’s Trumps America, why not?
Begin with an apology to the young man
What a way to add insult to injury. I hope he gets exactly what he’s asking for. ☝🏽 His judgment day is coming.. just wait for it.
How'd that song go?
Maybe he should've shaved his dome.
Is he using DevinNunes attorney?
Someone please tell me this is a joke. 🤔
This sounds like a Devin Nunes-type suit that wastes the courts’ time and money.
Emotional stress? Like having to cut your hair. Karmic equity achieved.
Good.
Good.he did nothing wrong but follow the rule
Sounds about white.
Boy bye 👋!
The kid handled it better than the adult. What shysters take these goddamn cases?
I wonder how that wrestler felt...
Good luck with that!
Countersue that shit! He’s the one causing emotional distress to a KID!
Ah, yes, now this story makes sense. An old white guy is *actually* the victim.
He deserve a defamation of character!
Hair envy. Now it makes a little more sense.
Alan Maloney. remember the racist's name. he's the loser who doesn't like POC or their hairstyles. give him hell Rydell
Snowflake much?
mbalter Gawd. I’m guessing $250 million. That seems to be what the racist snowflakes seem to think public humiliation because they’re racist is worth.
Cry me a fucking table.
HE HAS EMOTIONAL DISTRESS?!
TFOH
Fragile syndrome.
Ha, that backwards. The athlete gets to claim emotional distress. The ref needs to own up to his actions and stop being a baby. Everyone has the right to be fired for making stupid decisions, otherwise too many feel entitled to make bad decisions with no consequences.
Thoughts and prayers
Snowflake.
What embarrassment did he give the wrestler? Referee was wrong
Ridiculous— the wrestler was wronged in this incident.
..... 🤦♂️
White supremacists have no shame. The young wrestler whom he traumatized should be suing HIM.
DevinNunes is a high school wrestling referee?
WTH?
That takes balls..
Andrew Johnson's family filed a lawsuit as well. It should be for emotional distress & human rights violation. If the referee allowed him to wear a hair net/scarf/covering, this would not be an issue. Now Andrew's dreadlocks are short but he's still getting harassed at matches!
this is how clueless people can be. he hasn't thought of the distress the poor kid felt.
Who exactly is he claiming defamed him?
Are you effing kidding me?
How much emotional stress do he think he put on that young man..Shame , shame on him. He created his own stress doing something like that. He has some nerve.
For being a racist? Only in the country of Trumpism.
He defamed his own character. Don't want to be called out for bad behavior, don't do it. This is something my ten year old understands. Why is it so hard for this guy?
Frivolous. Must have same attorney as Devin Nunes.
Oh poor baby. Maybe he should have followed guidelines and addressed the hair during weigh-ins like he should have. ZERO sympathy for his self own.
On what grounds? The student should be sueing him.
Whatever.
TFB
Boohoo
🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻
He was wrong- typical move.
Hahahahahahaha
As in life buddy, you have to live with your decisions. Good or bad. You might want to pick another line of work. You obviously don't have the skin for this.
Wow the nerve of this guy SMH!
In order to claim defamation you have to prove the accusations are made up. The whole ordeal is ON TAPE.
What a joke
Bull...he was wrong to do what he did
He defamed his own character and created his own emotional distress by doing what he did. Poor call from a bad ref. That's all it was. And he had minutes to make the call not split seconds.
emotional distress jfc the nerve
And our generation is “soft” and made up of “snowflakes”. Ok.
Racists are so fragile, aren't they ...
Another *poor victim*. Is he asking for 250 million ? Disgusting !
What an arse?
It’s hard out here for a bigot!
He was mad he never had those long locks of hair.....he was subconsciously resentful and acted out by making a genetically stronger male cut his locks.....classic subconscious racial resentment with an excuse to act on it
He had no issue stressing the kid. Why should anyone be concerned regarding his “emotional” distress.
Oh brother. Frivolous lawsuits all around. Lord please exfoliate these people..🙄
These guys, Trump and others like him, ALWAYS play the victim. Act tough all you want, deep down we see you being a snowflake.
Good
Boo freaking hoooooooooooooooo!!!!
Why is he distressed?
The kid should be suing him!
Maybe Devin Nunes can help him through this difficult time.
See the thing is nobody knew who he was. But now we do. So...
🤮🤮🤮🤮
He brought it on himself 🤷🏽♀️
What a joke.....
Judging strictly from the photo, jealous
Honestly, F*c% him....
Frivolous at best, certainly as obscene as him making the young man cut his hair in public, to compete.
Just another grifter. Sad.
What the..................
I hope he’s saving to pay the defendant’s legal bills.
Republican behavior.
boo hoo
WHAT a jerk.
'emotional distress?' I hope the entire ordeal puts him through the wringer and leaves him penniless.
Meow meow meow
$100,000 ? Part time officiating pay has sure gone up
As a parent, I would destroy this man professionally.
He can use his lawsuit windfall to get a hairpiece!
Why is race mentioned in this story?
He defamed himself.
Racism is a heavy burden. It will crush your soul.
I'm excited for this. Just the initial information about him makes it clear he's a racist. Can't wait to see a really focused lawyer dig into his life.
Thoughts and Prayers.
Get this clown outta here!!!!
Remember when Judge Robert Bork railed against frivolous lawsuits and then sued a university because he tripped? First MAGA boy, then Nunes, now this guy. Conservatives are thin-skinned, litigious snowflakes.
Vonnie932 he has no ideal what stress is like
I smell a huge counter suit!!! GO LAWERS GO!!!
How dare he! he needs to look in mirror and see how racist he is!!!
Oh I am sorry n who cares about u? Look what did to that young man! SHAMEFUL!! He should b suing u!!
Future Featured Republican 2020 Convention Speaker Do What?
I don't understand why his hairstyle has to do with Wrestling. Unless the rival has advantage to pull out his dreadlocks
It's difficult not to sympathize with anyone who has the Twitter hate mob unleashed on them.
He certainly didn’t think about the stress he caused that kid when he made him cut his hair.
Oh now you playing the victim sorry coward
Just as the thetangibleC4 Covington Catholic students filed a lawsuit seeking $250 million in damages against the washingtonpost ? Quintessential realDonaldTrump & RoyCohn style doubling-down when guilty.
He's emotionally distressed? What about the kid?
I’m SOOOOOO sick of news. How’s that
Let's see if I can find any fucks to give...nope
Is he Deven Nunes’ brother? DevinCow come get this man
Just taking his cue from Trump. Trump's entire legacy as a private citizen is made up of frivolous lawsuits and now as president. Covington Catholic boy, Devin Nunes, why shouldn't this referee sue, everyone else is doing it.
Discovery 's gonna be a treat lol
Hope he loses in court
I hereby volunteer to serve on the jury in the trial of this ass clown’s lawsuit.
Another histrionic whiny man. It’s endemic.
Now there is a man who needs an egg to the head !
Good.
Did the emotional distress cause him to lose his hair too?!?!? 🤪
One needs to have character before it can be defamed.
Hair envy?
You don’t have character when you’re a racist.
The balls.....
Of course!! You do wrong and think you should paid for that!! Hope the Judge throws it out!! And he should apologize to the young man he scarred for life!!
of course, he cannot just go away-has to re abuse this wrestler all over again
Lemme guess, “Racism doesn’t represent your core values”...
He has character?😳
Clearly he was jealous of the boy’s handsome head of hair, what a jackass. And is he taking a page from DevinNunes with this frivolous lawsuit? I’d recommend otherwise but who am I? Just a mom of a boy with long hair who’d be furious if anyone tried that on her son.
NO......
So should every African American sue. Those fasley accusing lol....Arrogance is bliss
That’s rich
Emotional distress? From a grown man who had a kid's haircut because....it bothered him I guess? This dude is PATHETIC!
Emotional distress 😭 .People have no shame!
Snowflake
IF THE JUDGES DO NOT THROW THIS OUT!!!
FloWrestling
Seriously
“Emotional Distress” is what the student who had his dreads cut is going through. Just unbelievable, but in the era of trump, the low go lower😫
Can’t a guy be racist without tarnishing his character and causing emotional distress?!
OMG!!! Now I’ve seen Everything!!!
chanjae1 Oh FFS
Is this what they refer to now as 'The Nunes Effect'? DevinNunes
Can dish it but big baby can’t handle it
Snowflake ❄️
He should have been fired.
We all know that he will end up with an older white male judge that will be sympathetic and will be awarded millions of dollars. White privilege.
Considering he was categorized as a racist for following an actual written rule.....right on. Get it!
Good! Let the idiot spend his money on lawyers. He’s going to lose.
He created this problem to begin with and now he's suing. Don't get it!!
Snowflake.
Using Devin Nunes’ lawyer?
Nafarat100100 The kid needs to sue the referee for emotional distress. The gall. He’s only salty because his income was probably understandably affected given the Bru haha
nah bro. don't.
But what if you have shitty character and as a result deserve emotional distress?
The Ref called it. What case does he have? The wrestler who was told get rid of his dreadlocks has better case in court than this noodlehead!
The kid should sue you. You think you’re distressed, do the right thing, apologize
What about the emotional distress of that young man? Nuisance suit, should be fined!
Oh yeah must have been emotional when he was cutting that kids hair off, so distressing.
Caused by his actions. Tell this crybaby to pound sand.
No sympathy here.
Now we see him and know why he did it.
Lol his discriminatory action earned him the reputation. He did it by himself.
Oh fuck off
🤡
What character?
Now what does he think he did to that young man?
Is he also going to sue DevinNunesCow
I don’t really care do you?
Did someone make him cut his hair.... oh!
The referee’s lawyer should be immediately disbarred. Punish the enablers of frivolous lawsuits.
I love to know what’s this guy heritage it will tell me exactly who he is and what he is
He is going to the MAT
2019: the year of the white man crying salty tears of lost privilege.
I think he is trying to one-up Devin Nunes for 'Most Frivolous Lawsuit This Week'. There are similarities; neither is good at their job, neither knows the rules, both ignore the rules when they are called out. And now they both claim 'People are making fun of me'.
Terrible man continues to be terrible. News at 11.
Mister. You're an adult! That's the kid's line.
That’s funny that is the very thing that actually happened to the young man and anyone with a moral compass who had to witness such an abomination
He has a good character? 😂
Did someone cut his hair? 🤷♀️
Hey Ref...call this a life lesson...if you make a decision be prepared for the consequences of said decision. You made a bad decision, forcing a kid to cut his his instead of letting him cover it. Now you are whining because people called you out on your bad decision. Grow up.
Who’s he gonna sue—The Internet?
Stop
The referee needs to move to a red state where he can be more comfortable among fellow snowflakes.
Fuck this guy.
If I can't have it neither can you!
Can somebody tell that Mr. Melania to go sit down somewhere else.
🤣 emotional distress🤔 the reason he is stressed cuz it wasn't the first time doing this act, the student body finally questioned it and won, simple as that- move on ref.
What he needs is major psychological counseling sessions.
Baldheaded Jealous Fqa😡
Chrome domed follicle challenged pos inflicted himself on a child and humiliated that child. He should rot in jail. Says the old guy who was kicked out of HS band because he had for then long hair.
Wow, he got some nerve!
Crybaby referee!
He defamed himself. Boo hoo.
Sounds about white.
Snowflake.
What “defamation”? We ALL saw the video plain as day. He. Made. A. Child. Cut. Off. His. Hair. There was no doubt. Instead of letting this boy put on a cap like anyone else with long hair, he forced a black child to cut off his dreads. His “character” is crystal clear.
magat
Stupid ref.
He will lose.
Sad, that if this was a rule that his coach didn't enforce this rule before he ever hit the mat to wrestle. Was this something that was let go by others as so often rules don't seem to apply and then you have one ......one referee that said, this is not allowed and took action.
Yeah..... nope
This guy and DevinNunes must be friends.
Alpha males lol
Always amazed when someone claims defamation of character resulting from activities where they show that exact character.
the bald white guy is the real victim your honor.
This dude’s a straight up tool. I have more, but I’ll keep it clean for now. 🤬
To the White House I go
Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Your job sir was to referee the match, bottom line nothing else!!
Can we update the defendants in his pleading to make him sue himself?
Sounds about white.
I don’t know the rules for wrestling, but do the girls have the same or different rules than guys as far as hair goes?
Devin Nunes’ Wrestling Ref
Another spurious lawsuit like the kid from KY in D.C.
People suck
So he feels he is being judged? Poor guy
🤢🤢🤢🤢
What a looser
There are rules for a reason.
Good for him! He has my blessings
For being bald?
was it a danger to the other guy..or did it look better for some odd reason
What an ass.
He should be sued for the same!
Share a lawyer with Nunes🤣
And how much 'emotional distress' did his insensitive and bigoted public humiliation cause that young wrestler? What a nerve!?
Wow... this is how privilege works... the oppressor is the victim!
Brought on by his own ignorance
What an idiot. It was his stupid decision that put him where he is... now he’s suing. Suing because you’re emotionally weak and fragile seems to be a new trend...right Devin Nunes?
As the wise JudgeJudy says 'the only emotional distress here is mine, having to listen to this stupidity'.
You should have to cut his hair to walk into the courtroom
Idiot
🤮
The Devin Nunes Referee joining the Devin Nunes Maga Hat Teenager joining Devin Nunes ...
I don’t agree with what he did. He should’ve let kid tie them up. Bullying by mass is horrific also. Good luck Sir.
Suing because people talk about what you do in public is now a thing.
If our elected officials can keep the courts busy with frivolous lawsuits, this guy got the idea honestly.
How do you write an article about the referee's claim that he was just performing his duty without also reporting the rule regarding hair length & approved hair coverings that he alleges he was enforcing? Oh, bc it hurts the desired narrative. FakeNews
The Devin Nunes Referee ...
And he's bald! Was it jealousy?
Of course he is 🤦🏻♂️
Good for him. The mob will try to destroy you.
Oh my! A sue happy country we are.....
Smart move. When the story was in the news I never saw a picture of the ref or gave any notice to his name..........but now I have.
Dumb
Ok Mr Monopoly Jr, they better throw this crap out....
Really the teenager should counter sue
Emotional distress? How about the young man who was totally degraded and humiliated in public whose hair was cut due to your made up rules.
Can u claim emotional distress from yourself?
White fragility does not equal white innocence as esglaude said recently
Especially since he DIDN'T FORCE the WHITE KID to do anything. It was the KID'S choice. FAKE HEADLINE TITLE EQUALS FAKE NEWS.
Definitely a trump supporter! Consequences of your actions!
The family and school should count as soon as his suit is filed. He was wrong and now he’s being a bitch about it
Hair envy..... obviously
This character was not defamed! His character was exposed for what he is. Any idiot with a lawyer can file a suit. The damaged and aggrieved parties are the school, the league and the student. Not necessarily in that order.
Oh yeah his emotional distress.
Thoughts and prayers.
DevinNunes called to cheer him on. “Have you heard about the cow I’m suing?” DevinNunesCow
Everyone in New Jersey is racist.
REALLLLLYYYYY ?!? He SHOWED us his character - POS - maybe he was just jealous of the kid’s hair? 🤷🏻♀️ Just a theory.
Racists are the victims in Trumpland.
Typical... making himself into the victim. 🙄
FtG
TrumpVoter
Didn't Trump campaign against frivolous lawsuits? Nunes and now this person? Gawd awful
Shocker...🙄
Awwww. Feeling got hurt. He should BeButter.
Dang dude, don’t pull your hair out.
FFS
And he should win, wrestling has been that way since I wrestled in school. Cut it or don’t wrestle. Weak minded parents are making weak minded children, that is the problem, grow up people.
This guy is not the victim.
Buy the shine on the dome, jealous is who jealous are. Maybe he shouldn’t be allowed to ref until he get rid of the cookie duster.
Just jealous. Look at his head. 😡
Wait. The ref is suing? Wtf is this?
What a lack of metacognition.
Awe :(
How emotionally distressed do you think this boy was? Throw out the lawsuit and let's never have to look at this poor excuse for a red again
Are you Kidding!! This boy needs to be Fired NEVER Allowed to work with Children Again And NEVER to be heard from again NewJerseyHS
Lol should have left them on, nothing like giving your opponent something to grab.
The rules are the rules if you want to wrestle cut your hair.
Referee from hell...
I hope the wrestler has hired an attorney to sue the referee, the school, and the organization associated with the high school’s wrestling program.
Snowflake
Mario time
I guess when the media decides that a something in a high school gym somewhere fits its narrative and destroys everyone’s life some are unhappy with it
OMG. The wrestler should be suing her for emotional distress!
So over at NBC 'news' they write an article & never tell us what the rule is? U also include the line 'who is white'. Why do you try to sow division & hatred? I would bet my life it is against the rules, I would also bet a kid of any race would have had to cut their hair too. FU.
I think it’s fairly obvious why he doesn’t like people with lots of hair.
This guy is clearly an asshole and pt this student in a horrible, humiliating, inexcusable position. That said, why does every article I read more mention the race of everyone it speaks about? This is becoming dangerous.
He should have been fired. Did the kids parents file charges?
For a second I thought those were the terms of the wrestlers lawsuit
Pathetic. Now...the kid, he might have a legit case against the ref for distress.
no. he deserved the criticism.
LMAOOOOO
🙄
He had emotional distress? GTFOH
?
What a despicable human being
Womp womp
A grown man bullying and humiliating children has no character.
I hope he gets 100 million dollars. I wrestled in school and the rules on hair length were very specific and strictly enforced. Everybody knew exactly how long your hair could be and if it was to long you either cut it or forfeited the match.
🖕this guy
Devin nunes
You cannot be defamed for being an ignorant racists! It truly emphasized his true character! He lived up to and was called out! POS...!
How do you think the kid felt? Geesh.
He was just jealous of the kids hair. Look at the shiny bowling ball he's got.
Coalminetweety Womp womp, I don’t care do you?
I hope he Screws the CorruptMSM..
if that had been my kid he would still be sucking his dinner through a straw
It seems like he was 'triggered' when people called him on his bigoted bullshit.
Emotional distress? Now maybe he feels what the wrestler felt.
Wouldn't it be cheaper and take a lot less effort for the ref to just stop being racist?
Wow. What about the student and his rights? His hairstyle had to be changed in order to compete for that match. Was it in the school league document that no one could have dreadlocks or long hair?
Hair envy.
I was emotionally distressed when I was watching what this bigot made that young man do. I have lawsuit to file too.
Nunes, Covington Catholic, this guy.... there's a huge shadowy right-wing movement of ridiculous lawsuits intended to chill the free press. Why is NBC news amplifying this effort?
F him.
Did other adults step in at the time? Just wondering why other adults didn’t step in.
Are you kidding me ? He created the stress on the boy having to decide whether to cut his dreadlocks or forfeit the match. Fire this ref.
God don’t like ugly, he will get what he deserves.
Bald, bitter men shouldn’t dictate another man’s hairstyle. 😑
loser
....of course he is.
I’m sure it had to be pretty nasty
Oh gee yet another white guy whose feelings are hurt. Yet he had no problem humiliating the wrestler.
oh ffs 😩
boo fucking hoo
Bwahahahahaha!!!
Give me a break!
FIGHT with ya self ya EVIL RACIST BAGGA
Andrew Johnson, the high school wrestler who was forced by high school referee Alan Maloney, to cut his dreadlocks or forfeit a match has taken the first step toward filing a lawsuit alleging defamation of character and emotional distress.
This guy can dish it, but he can't take it. Sit down somewhere. Smh.
This guy! Good luck with...
Oh boy.
The referee suffered emotional distress? The referee?
Shame on this man.
So what did the rules actually say? We have avoided that entire part..
Hopefully he goes after and CNN next.
He was doing his job though...
Cry me a river. The ahole was in the wrong, now he's suing. Gimme a break.
Soooo, he does 'racist things' gets called out/shamed for it. Now he feels discriminated and wants compensation? GTFOH
Let me guess... He's been losing his hair over this whole thing.
Against himself?
Maga bigot
Judge rules that referee must grow dreadlocks to give to wrestler as a wig, or else he is sentenced to being crushed to death in the gym’s retractable bleachers
Shh…mustaches are [redacted].
Good for him. He was doing his job.
Doesn’t he mean definition of character?
In related news: Bald man hates man with hair.
F this guy...
Racist Mad About Being Called Racist
obviously jealous of the wrestler's plentiful hair
Yikes
Nah. Fuck that dude.
That fool looks like Mr Spacely from thejetsons mrspacely jetsons cartoonshows bringbackthrlejetsons illplayjudyjetsoninliveaction
Don’t do the crime is you can’t do the time
And yet He inflicted emotional distress and defamation of character on the student by forcing him to cut his hair.
Did he sue DevinCow as well?
Of course.
every wrestler, no matter the hair style, knows that there are limitations this is for eye safety foolish people screaming about dregs are causing eye damage
He better not referee volleyball they might swing at his head.
Shame on that bigot ref! SHAME!!
First Nunes Sue's a cow..now this.. what's up with the conservative snowflakes 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😳😳😳
He terrorized a child. There's no way to get around it.
I say the child &family should press charges against the referee for having to cut his hair off which was unnecessary.
This seems backwards.
He better not win a fuckin dime!

The real tragedy is the Coach and his teammates did nothing. Didn’t forfeit in solidarity, didn’t even raise their voice in his defense. They chose winning over sportsmanship and more importantly over a team mate. So, The Ref, The Coach, That Whole team can suck a fat sausage
Please! What a snowflake.
No...
That’s the exact type guy I thought he was
You've got to be kidding
Classic projection.
HS State Tournament Official and School Administrator checking in on this: under NO circumstances should an athlete be told to cut their hair during competition. Your lawsuit has as much clout as a fart in a windstorm. Good luck.
Oh he's the victim. Got it. 🙄
Nope
Holy shit.
Imagine how the wrestler feels. 🙄
