And here we are, more than a year after the quoted tweet, a few years after this whole thing began, all because that idiot Sam Crossed had to start shit-talking my kid (who was 4 at the time).

A few have asked, so allow me to just explain here. https://twitter.com/PatrickMConnor/status/1146474923382038528

Few years ago I was detained at the US-Mexico border two days in a row without committing a crime, no explanation given. Second day I was handcuffed and led away from my daughter, which traumatized the shit out of her. When I tweet about it, Sam tagged a few people and laughed

Fair enough. He'd already called me a "liberal f**got" and a few other things before blocking me & running away when I correctly called him on racist tweets so him talking shit wasn't unexpected. But for some reason he posted a photo of my daughter soon after, again talking shit

Honestly, I don't usually care much about what people say about me. I've literally heard it all. But no kids. I wouldn't ever enter kids into the equation. But yeah, he totally tweeted photos of my 4-year-old daughter, then my wife, saying some fairly vile things about both

The funny thing was he was doing it from an account he kept intermittently locked. So a little while back when I blocked a WHOLE lot of people and explicitly said, "This mf is a racist," a gaggle of his internet friends teamed up and said, "HE'S NOT RACIST, OMG."

But:

Then again a lot of people like costumes. Sure. "It's just a joke that goes back to 18th and 19th century minstrel shows, have a sense of humor, you cuck!" I know.

But not a whole lot of people who aren't racist shitpost about killing natives on the 4th of July

So who gives a shit about one of the thousands of semi-anonymous impotent white idiots reveling in the fact that they definitely peaked in high school?

Good question. Let's go to the next tweet to find out.

Welp, @dcsportsbog wrote a nice article about Sam Crossed for @washingtonpost. I wonder if he asked whether Sam had social media. Because Sam certainly did, the account was unlocked, he posted racist shit from it back then and people knew his real name https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2017/07/14/slingin-drinks-and-throwin-punches-a-30-year-old-bartender-gets-in-the-ring/

I don't want to put any of this on @dcsportsbog, to be clear. It's not every day you're assigned or ask to write about an athlete who keeps back-pocket Twitter accounts to say racist shit from. But being fair, a quick Google or Twitter search would have been revealing.

And quite fittingly verified @ESPN writer Steve Kim really took to Sam Crossed and his racist shitposting. Back before Steve was hired by ESPN and purged a whole lot of his tweets (or tried to unsuccessfully, in a number of cases), you could see him RT a few of those racist memes

Considering Sam is at best a journeyman in prospect's clothing and literally across the continent from Steve, it's really strange how many pro-"Vanilla Gorilla" RTs and tweet showed up on Steve's timeline.

Then you see shit like this. They're kindred spirits.

So imagine my surprise when, a few years ago, literally a few minutes after someone told me he'd just mentioned me (again), he tweeted this photo. Later that night a link to the tweet and photo was DM'd to me with laughing emojis from a brand new account

So it's again weird (or maybe not, at this rate) to have someone tweet me his vague threats again out of the blue. And not even do it himself, from his 19th locked account after the last one was suspended for being racist, but through some skinny bodyguard.

I don't even care what anyone does about the Steve Kim thing. I'm sure he'll get what he knows is coming. Fuck him. But when Sam tweeted a photo of my family, I'm sure he didn't realize I could see, but a number of familiar people liked the tweet. Very familiar people. Surprising

So yeah. That's why a while back I axed probably 2-300 people off my Twitter and a bunch off other social media. A whole bunch of people saw it, some liked it, a few even joked about it and tweeted to me about unrelated shit the same day.

You want to be friends with someone taking shots on the internet at someone else's small kids? Go for it. Reason behind wanting some imaginary friendship doesn't matter. But now if you've read this and know and still want to be friends with him, go fuck yourself too.

You should actually see some of the people who follow him now at his new account where he hides behind the lock some more. It's intriguing stuff, considering the vile memes he posts. Unless you mf's got him on perma-mute (then why even follow?), you see them.

So in conclusion, I'll end this thread with Sam Crossed, the pathetic racist guttersnipe, getting knocked to the canvas by a black dude with a Star of David tattoo on his shoulder. [Thanks, Twon Smith.]

P.S.- Someone go ahead and tag that little eroc guy so he can hand-deliver it to his daddy sam
