49ers Long Snapper Gets Hateful Responses to Ricky Pearsall Post Over ‘Liberal’ Views After Shooting
New York Post ^ | Sep. 1, 2024 | Christian Arnold

Posted on 09/01/2024 4:49:00 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Long-snapper Taybor Pepper was shocked and dismayed that he was attacked on social media over the weekend after posting a comment expressing relief that Ricky Pearsall was OK after being shot during an attempted robbery attempt on the 49ers rookie. “Cannot believe I had to mute replies to my last tweet,” Pepper posted to social media following an early message of support for his teammate.

Pearsall was shot when a 17-year-old attempted to rob him of his Rolex using a gun and the rookie fought back, leading to multiple shots going off one of which struck him in the chest. “Why? Never liked the draft pick anyway who cares,” one social media user callously wrote in response. “Are you still [a] liberal piece of -u–t?” another person replied, according to the Daily Mail.

Pepper appears to have changed his settings on the social media platform so that only people mentioned in the post are able to reply. The long-snapper has previously been outspoken about politics on social media, including criticizing the National Association of Black Journalists over hosting a conversation with former president Donald Trump and comments made by popular ESPN host, Pat McAfee.

Once Harris is elected, the hate coming from the left will be scary.

This leftward makes plenty of pinko posts. Probably wouldn’t have gotten any pushback if he wasn’t leftarded to begin with.

Post anything on social media more controversial than a soup recipe, and you’re gonna get trashy comments from mentally unstable people. It just goes with the territory.

And if that soup recipe contains meat, you’ll hear from the PETA folks. And they won’t be polite.

Easy solution.

Stay off social media.

The human race survived just fine for thousands of years without the wonders of electronic tech.

That is, appliances and farm equipment notwithstanding....

No, walking anywhere in SF is an invitation to get robbed.
