Amy Schumer just moves from one garbage fire to another. First, she took offense at a joke (told by a 17-year-old kid) that was clearly meant to be a take-off on her own brand of humor. Then she bizarrely called out Taylor Swift for having a “thigh gap.” And if that wasn’t shady enough, she’s also been accused of stealing jokes from a very revered and also very dead comedian, Patrice O’Neal. Oh, I left out the part about her crying due to being labeled plus-sized by Glamour magazine. The point is, as of late there’s a lot of bullshit to go around when it comes to Schumer.
Still, I had thought she had enough good sense not to attack common members of her audience, but I guess not. Yesterday, she put out an Instagram post which sought to shame a young black man for daring to take a photo while she paraded around in downtown Greenville, South Carolina. By the way, having lived in and around Sparatanburg for many years, I can tell you that downtown Greenville is very nice. If you ever in the area I would highly suggest that you check it out. So, I guess I can at least give her some small credit in that regard.
Anyway, here’s her original post…

Predictably, left-wing tabloids and other media orgs ran wild with this story. LOOK HOW EMPOWERED SHE IS YOU GUYS! WHAT A WOMAN!
From the Huffington Post…
OK, so the media spin was goofy, but if that guy did everything he was accused of by Schumer, I can certainly understand being somewhat taken aback by his behavior. The only problem is, he didn’t. Luckily, he has video of the incident and posted it to his own Instagram. Unluckily, he doesn’t have 4 millions followers on the service and an army of media flacks to help push his version of events.
I guess TheRalphRetort.com will have to do our part to help this dude out…
(archive of the Instagram post)
More, from the man and his wife…
As you can see by the video, Schumer isn’t scared at all, which the man’s wife notes in the screecap above. Amy, being the low class piece of trash she is, even had to bring the couple’s little daughter into the mix. Libeling this man wasn’t enough. Schumer wanted to make him feel lower than low and embarrass him om front of his family. What a dirtbag she is.
Mr. Brewer, the man who Schumer tried to lie about (apparently because he wouldn’t delete the video and whatever other photos he might have taken), talked to Fox Carolina 21 in Greenville…
Leslie Brewer reached out to FOX Carolina saying he is the man in the photo and said Schumer’s post is not an accurate account of what happened.
Brewer said he was walking down the street when several other pedestrians started shouting that they spotted the celebrity at a stoplight. He said he pulled out his camera to Instagram it, but stopped recording when she asked.
Brewer said he was upset when Schumer brought his daughter into the conversation and the two had a disagreement about him recording the video. He said Schumer began walking away but then turned around and came back, telling him she was going to take his picture and share it with her four million followers.
“She was just so rude,” he said.”She cussed me out in front of my family.”
What a fat, entitled piece of garbage. Hopefully she ends up paying for this in a big way, but I won’t hold my breath.

It keeps showing that video as “Content Unavailable”. You sure she hasn’t successfully taken it down or is it just a technical issue?
Same here. Gimme dem bideos
I fixed it, it’s on the site now and should be working. The guy made his Instagram private, although it could still pull that one post up for some reason.
i guess even if its private you can share it as long as you have the link
Eh, the whole thing seems stupid, but you know what’s really stupid? Taking photos with celebrities or asking them for their autographs. It elevates them, and they’re just people — in many (if not most) cases, horrible people.
If people had enough respect for themselves, they’d have no desire to take photos of themselves with celebrities.
Eh, it depends. I can understand the fad, but I’d only even think about trying if it was someone I truly loved and respected.
Ralph, I’m sure that Schumer will end up paying for this incident, previous ones that you highlighted, as well as future incidents that are sure to follow this trend. Maybe not in the form of a lawsuit and a direct settlement, but at the very least if she keeps this shit up her career is going to join her in the garbage fire.
Good point.
hopefully soon.
So basically, this white woman lied and used the “scary black man” stereotype to slander him? Oh Amy, you human Cabbage Patch Kid, you keep being a dumpster fire on two legs.
‘White’ ? She’s not White she’s a Jewess, Jews aren’t White and don’t consider themselves to be White.
Jews aren’t a fucking race, it’s a religion! So yeah, she’s white as she can be.
It is both a religion and a race. People in Israel use genetic testing to determine whether or not people wanting to immigrate are in fact Jewish by ethnicity.
I use “Jewish” to refer to the religion, and “Hebrew” for the nationality. Less confusing that way (at least to me).
Not a bad idea…certainly not the standard, but it could be a useful distinction if adopted more broadly http://forward.com/culture/155742/jews-are-a-race-genes-reveal/
you fucking, dumb, moron… “Hebrew” is a language…go to school
Jesus H Christ……Todays lesson for the dumb, undereducated and ignorant is:
“Hebrew” is a language “Israeli” is a nationality
so did the Nazi’s , schmuck
it is NOT a race , ya moron, its a religion! She’s a fat , unfunny white girl…nothing more. Don’t make it a religious Jew hating thing
You sure have a lot of confidence for someone who doesn’t know what the hell they are talking about! This is from a Jewish publication http://forward.com/culture/155742/jews-are-a-race-genes-reveal/
Im a Jew, asshole….
Then I am confused as to how this is not something you are already aware of
so, you read is so it makes it true. I read that certain races are lazy and do nothing but have babies and live on welfare…so that makes it true?
I really hare dumbass, Jew hating racists like you. You “read it” One fucking article and thats your proof.?Guess what? This female Jew is of Russian and German ancestry so that makes me of eastern european decent not “jew”.
I wont tell you who you are so don’t tell us who we are.
If Amy Schumer is an asshole its because she’s an asshole NOT because ,as you so wish, she’s a Jew…that’s her religion and do we know if she even practicing?
So, go fuck yourself you racist hater and stop blaming the Jews for everything that ails you, you douchebag!
My ‘proof’ was not that one article. In fact, I hadn’t even read that article. I was aware of Judaism being an ethnicity for a variety reasons, and googled to find an article with evidence to help prove it to you. If that article was not sufficient I, happy to give you more evidence. For someone who is Jewish , it is confusing to me that this is not something you are already aware of.
As for blaming Jews..:.what exactly do you think I am blaming Jews for? What gave you that impression? You said you won’t tell ,who I am and then proceeded to tell me who I am…so I guess that is your way of giving me permission to tell me who I am?
My race is white , my religion is Jewish..still confused, you Nazi, bigot, racist jerk? You need to worry about your own race whatever that may be and stop worrying about the Jews
In what way am I ‘worrying about the Jews’ ?
you didnt even “read the article” what a fucking douchebag” you are…SMH
I’m saying it wasn’t that article that taught me Judaism is both a religion and a race, rather, it was something I had known already from a variety of other sources. This was in response to you claiming that article was the sole basis of this knowledge and I was saying that is not correct.
I did skim the article though! To see if it contained the information I was trying to convey, which it did. It was my hope that since it was from a Jewish publication you might be more trusting of it, and not see it as based on some sort of bias. Since you apparently perceive bias in strange things, like a person referencing biological truths that Jews themselves acknowledge, such as that Judaism is also a race with a genetic basis.
How this could possibly be construed as bigotry, racism or nazism is something I find hard to understand, although I, open to your explaining it to me (though I suspect you will just call me more names) somehow negative about Jews? Do you believe that Jewish publication I posted is secretly nazi propaganda?
I will now await your response of calling me names.
15 million Jews, 1.5 billion Muslims, 2.4 billion Christians, and Jews are a race? Israel uses their protected status to kill Muslims they don’t like, and Christians keep defending them.
You’ve convinced me to convert to the Jewish race, but I’m not sure I’d test positive by the genocidal Israelis.
dont fuck with us Jews…we arent going to go blindly into any ovens anymore
LOL, the ovens didn’t exist. The lie is nothing but a Jewish political tool. Jews are vicious lying little rats.
go and say that to an Israel soldier you brave soul LOL
It’s not a religion, just because they CLAIM it is one doesn’t mean it is. It would be akin to testing people for brown hair and SAYING “OH WELCOME FELLOW MEMBER OF MY RACE”!
It’s not accepted by the scientific community at large and therefore it is meaningless. (Funny that a religious group is attempting to delve into science at all honestly).
You are way way wrong about it not being accepted by the scientific community at large. And it is not merely a claim, but something based on genetic research.
And no, it is in no way comparable to saying brown haired people are a race. If brown haired people were a distinct population that had primarily only interbred with each other for many thousands of years, then perhaps that might be a decent parallel, but since that is not the case, neither is your analogy.
Here is a scientific publication http://www.nature.com/news/2010/100603/full/news.2010.277.html
Nature.com’s argument would apply to any large religion over hundreds of years; I can’t choose to be black and I can’t be born with Jewish beliefs. This much is obvious.
From a Jewish publication http://forward.com/culture/155742/jews-are-a-race-genes-reveal/
Jews are a race, goggle ‘Jewish atheists’. Also potential immigrants to Israel are subjected to DNA testing to confirm Jewishness ,so unless a DNA test can determine religion your position is pretty stupid.
According to Jews if your mother isn’t Jewish then you aren’t a “real” Jew. So which is it?
Jews aren’t a race? Wow. Pretty “Anti Semitic” thing to say according to the Jewish woman who writes this article -> https://archive.is/0MgL2
They think they’re a race. Here’s an example.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyrqOCLEdJg
you people are ALWAYS turning things into a race issue, arent you…smh…..
You people? White guys with an interest in science and accuracy? (Which I am)
yes, YOU people…it always gets ya, doesn’t it…..cants say that but YOU people can always go after the Jews, cant you?
Haha those autistic fuckers are the worst.
Lol!
What do you mean by ‘you people’ ?
what ever you want it to mean you racist asshole
Look at her. She’s a narwhal sans horn. That pasty whale is white as a sheet.
I agree she is ugly, she is also a Jewess and Jews don’t consider themselves White.
And trans people ignore their sex.
Doesn’t change the fact that she is white.
Judaism is a religion, not a race. You can convert to Judaism regardless of your parentage if you want. That Jewish law says you are only born a Jew with no need to convert if your mother is a Jew has resulted in a lot of generational passage of the faith through birth, but so have many other forms of religious brainwashing. Most believers believe what their parents indoctrinated them to believe. The Middle East is chocked full of people whose parents indoctrinated them in Muslim nonsense. North America is chocked full of people who believe Christian nonsense that their parents indoctrinated them into believing when they were young and defenseless, just as the Indian subcontinent has a ton of people whose innocent heads were filled with Hindu fairy tales as children by their parents.
None of these belief systems is a race, but most have a great deal of their population with common genetic stock inside each of their populations. That Jews don’t go out recruiting other Jews as Christians have through violent crusade or peaceful mission has kept the Jewish gene pool somewhat less diverse. Still, every time somebody coverts or a kid of Jewish heritage such as myself grows up to marry a nonjew and have kids, the pool becomes more diverse.
No, “Judaism” is not a race. But the term “Jew” originally describes to a group of peoples from the Palestinian region. Hence, a race. They’re two different but entwined terms. Essentially, I could say, “Jews were very different from Christians” or “Jews and Pakistani people were similar”, and Jew has two different meanings here.
They are NOT a race.
You are NOT intelligent.
Ah I see you’re struggling with the typical religious argument:
Believing it without any evidence doesn’t make it true, it just makes you a cult.
You’ve got to be kidding. Jews are referred to as a race/religion by different parties across many many different textbooks, literatures, etc. Also, I apologize for my head being in my ass, I was trying to see things from your perspective. Yes, believing without evidence doesn’t make it true. The difference here, is there’s vast amounts of evidence supporting my claim unlike religion..So what’s your point? You’re writing with the tone of someone who thinks they’re right even though all evidence points to them being wrong…almost like you’re religious yourself.
“Jews are referred to as a race/religion by different parties across many many different textbooks, literatures, etc.”
OH look at all your citations! Oh wait there are none, because you’re full of shit.
“Yes, believing without evidence doesn’t make it true. The difference here, is there’s vast amounts of evidence supporting my claim unlike religion.”
I don’t – SEE – any evidence. Weird. It’s almost like you didn’t give any, go figure.
“So what’s your point? You’re writing with the tone of someone who thinks they’re right even though all evidence points to them being wrong…almost like you’re religious yourself.”
You’re writing with the tone of someone so incredibly retarded that they think declaring it true makes it so.
If you’re going to say there’s evidence – PROVIDE IT. Much like I have no reason to believe in a god without evidence so do I have no reason to believe you without evidence. You have given ZERO citations, merely claimed that they supposedly exist.
Maybe look into the difference between Ethnic Groups and Racial Groups.
Many people deem Jews an Ethnic group (as they share culture, beliefs, etc.) I have no links (other than from Jewish groups or those affiliated with Jewish groups) that claim Jews are a race.
It’s just a religious group trying to make itself distinct but the fact of the matter remains – the only people who have EVER classified Jew as a race, are in fact Jewish people.
The bias is obvious and I have no reason to believe a “scientific study” performed by a religious organization which has massive amounts of ingroup bias.
Check in next week when America conducts a study that it’s the “Only good country on earth”.
Get your head out of your ass – really.
‘The only people who have ever classified Jew as a race are in fact Jewish people” is a demonstrably false statement. Above I’ve posted a link from a scientific publication which uses scientific evidence to demonstrate that Jew is a race, you are welcome to read it.
If you disagree with it’s factual claims, feel free to express what they got wrong.
You do realize the history of Jews right? A people from the Middle East that then were spread across Europe and Russia for a couple thousand years. Many of these Jews have been atheist or even converted to Christianity ‘conversos’. If Jewishness is nothing more than a religion, how could this be?
“is a demonstrably false statement. ”
No it is not. Claiming so does not make it so.
“Above I’ve posted a link from a scientific publication”
You listed ONE JOURNAL ARTICLE (Not a research paper) from a second rate “scientific journal”. Please direct me to where the UN classifies Jews as a race, or where any major country on this planet does so?
In regards to the ONLY reference the journal article has, it was (as admitted in the acknowledgements) funded by Israeli and Jewish groups so – yet again – it is just a religious group trying to fund it’s way to uniqueness.
The study was done by selecting incredibly incredibly small amounts of DNA in order to try and bind people together i.e. “That’s why they call it a thread” but the fact of the matter is they’re simply ignoring the overwhelming majority of DNA.
The real question is are the “Genetic Racial differences” in any way noticeable, and are they in any way comparable to the magnitude of genetic differences between say Africans and Russians. I imagine not.
All you can do is prove HERITAGE, not “Race”. You can prove many of those people had ancestors in that region. It would be akin to deeming “Genghis Khan” a race, when it is in fact an ancestry shared by millions.
As I’ve said before, it is a religious group DESPERATELY trying to claim uniqueness when the fact of the matter is – the European DNA far outweighs that of their so called racial markers.
If they want to try and focus on a single grain of sand in order to legitimize themselves then they need to make a strong case for why the overwhelming majority of sand on the beach does not matter.
So Much Shocking Antisemitism! “Jews do not exist”
See you at the next Klan meeting.
Given that there’s an entire Wikipedia article dedicated to ‘Jewish Atheists’ and given that potential immigrants to Israel are subjected to DNA testing to confirm Jewishness, your position that Jew is a religious belief is SILLY.
Kick ass! I didn’t realize that Sammy Davis junior switched races from black to Jewish when he converted. NEAT!
From a scientific publication:
http://www.nature.com/news/2010/100603/full/news.2010.277.html
From a Jewish publication, about how genetic testing has confirmed that there is in fact a Jewish race http://forward.com/culture/155742/jews-are-a-race-genes-reveal/
It is a race and a religion. What is a Jewish atheists?
You may consider this paper on the topic: http://www.jstor.org/stable/4496797?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents
It talks about how their focus on useless “Junk DNA” flies in the face of how race has always been determined.
Awesome, so black people can get rid of racism by converting to Caucasian just like people convert to Judaism, right?
Jews are a race, according to this lovely Jewish woman who writes for The Times of Israel. Whether those Jews are in The US, Germany or Israel. To say otherwise would be deemed “Anti Semitic” https://archive.is/0MgL2
So much ignorance in your post. AND IN 2016!
Sure, I mean you can convert to Judaism just like you can convert to Caucasian, right?
Eh theres a scale, like with greeks turks and spaniards some are whiter than others. I draw the line somewhere before Jeff Goldblum. Or the sopranos: tony pauly and mikey are white Chris, the E Street guy and the Billy Batts guy aren’t. Also, I think my favorite about the rise of the alt right online is people throwing around “Jewess” it always makes me laugh kinda like Chinaman
They are white until they get caught then the victim Jew card comes out. It’s how they manage to call for white genocide at schools and nobody bats an eye because they think it’s a self hating white.
I was in fear for his life. He barely survived his encounter with a dangerous SJW.
this is bollocks this dudes probably only showing the picture before things got out of hand and asked him in depth to stop it ,don’t take pictures if people that dont want them its there face not yours respect humans and there personal boundaries famous or not its not right.little respect for others goes along way
“a little respect”
Like not lying about someone to 4 million people.
Exaggerating an unintentionally awkward run-in with a fan, exaggerating about it and shaming him in front of millions of people is “respect.” Because feels.
I mean this in the nicest way possible, but I don’t think people like you are fit for civilized society. It’s like you need the most basic and obvious things explained to you. I think it’s terrifying that somebody like you is deemed competent to vote.
What a shame it is that people like you exist. Have a wonderful day.

Amy was made famous by certain people for certain reasons, and they’re not going to let their investment go to waste.
Maybe, if she spent less time fabricating social issues, she’d have more time to create comedy instead of stealing it from others.
she’s a sjw media “comedian” she already knows she’s not really that funny, there’s no way she’s going to risk it all with originality.
Yea well, I have a feeling her career was mostly jump started by her former bf anthony jeselnik writing her stuff for her. Since they’ve broken up she’s coasted until she ran out of ideas, and devolved into social justice instead since that is the result of brain death.
Jeselnik was wise to dump this trash fire before she became a liability.
maybe when they broke up he had figured that out and was using her to make connections before jumping the sinking ship schumer
The video the guy put up is pretty edited so I don’t see how it supports or discredits her account. Bad reporting by the Huff post. I don’t personally care either way (not really concerned if she was wrong, he was wrong, or whatever as I just don’t care enough about stories like this). But I am failing to see how his video proves anything.
Who is Amy Schumer? Seriously! I’m going to have to Google her because I literally have NO IDEA!!! Heard the name, but it means absolutely nothing to me.
An unfunny comedian turned “Social Justice Activist”Feminist which apparently includes making up stories and harassing people.
The video he posted is edited garbage and his “Sorry” was so sarcastic! This guy is a creep! I’ve met her and she’s a very nice person!
Wow, great proof there! By the time he took his pic, she wasn’t mad. He and his wife dispute what she said, wow, what a surprise, I would 100% expect them to admit it if they were rude and refused to stop taking her pic, obviously she must have lied, not. I have to doubt the author as well since they claim to know the area but terribly misspelled the town of Spartenburg. I read this was in NC and I read SC, which is it?
Schumer may be a shameful ideologue who plagiarizes other people’s material and gets away with it because she’s a feminist, but I wouldn’t take this guy’s word based on that video. It’s too short to convey his side of the story and discount Schumer’s.
While I wouldn’t put it past her that she’d lie about something like this as an excuse to tell her fans to fuck off so she doesn’t have to deal with them anymore because being a celebrity is too difficult, but it doesn’t bode well for this guy that his proof is five seconds of obviously edited footage.
Just shows that SJWs at all levels are every bit as horrible. She projects her own malice onto others to justify her own malicious acts.
The man is clearly a regular guy, seems well spoken and stopped filming as soon as she asked, despite there being no law against filming in public that I know of… ><
racist white woman
Where’s the video? Are you referring to the :05 edited clip? That’s not exactly “video of the incident”.
I don’t understand why she still has fans. She treats them with such disdain (the male ones anyway). This is the second incident in which she pulled some bullshit on a male fan she’s met.
I’m not trying to take anyone’s side here, but can someone explain to me what this proves? I mean, the video is literally five seconds of edited footage. If Schumer didn’t want her picture taken, it makes sense that she would have asked him to delete the video. He still could have been persistent and rude afterward. Again, I’m not taking her side here but I don’t understand why this little video constitutes proof of anything…

No more fat comments about Amy. /s
Amy says she is a size 6 -8 (I think that correlates to baby elephant size in months) as no way that is a human size 6-8.
I hope she loses a ton of endorsements
The tide is turn, the cunts will start getting what’s coming to them
We interviewed Schumer shortly before this confrontation. She was difficult and awkward. We talked about it on our show and it is on our Hawk and Tom Facebook Fan page – you can hear the entire discussion which brings up many of the same “victimizations” you refer to as well, and more. She seems to thrive on being the victim in as many situations as possible, at the expense of unsuspecting “average people” that she tries to destroy along the way. She is the worst kind of celebrity, I think she is unaware of the power her celebrity possesses and doesn’t realize that unleashing her fans on someone based on her one-sided view of things can have serious effects on the people she attacks.
A truly classy person would have smiled for the pic, and gone on their way. Amy is not a classy person.
Does all this crap really fucking matter? we are ALL Human Beings that are on the brink of war with over various items…the Silliest of which is Religion……ALL religions are exactly the same when you remove the CULTURAL differences in each and every one of them……there IS ONLY ONE GOD….no matter what name you decide too Call such a being that our little human minds can not grasp the entire concept of.
It does gotta suck to be lumped in with a bunch of bitches who are significantly fatter than you and be expected to act all positive about it, and be used as a prop in people’s selfies. If Amy was some kinda stand up comic she would have had a mechanism to make self deprecating jokes about it. Where have you gone lisa lampenelli a nation turns its lonely eyes to you
She’s a kike. Fuck her and every mall Santa that looks like her.
Dear Ralph Retort,
1) Black guys are the worst when it comes to being hostile to women walking down the street who don’t want to give away their phone number, and I’m a black woman. Someone please acknowledge this.
2) He seemed completely cocky in that video, and not very nice at all. In all likelihood, he started filming AFTER he told her he owned her because America paid for her. Why haven’t you thought of this?
3) I couldn’t even tell he was black. I seriously thought he was just a tan white guy when I first saw his picture, or some latino dude.
She is so LOW LIFE and will vote for Hillary that wants to KILL BABIES even up to 9 month old
Is she STILL here? I thought she vowed to move to Canada if Donald Trump won the election… actually she was one of a long list of celebrities that vowed they would move to another country if Trump became president, I am trying to remember how many actually delivered on thier promises, oh yeah, ZERO, not a single one of them moved across the street let alone to another country.
That’s because they are all full of shit,
