So apparently someone played a prank on this DJ Keemstar guy that resulted in his house being raided by a SWAT team:


Now I originally thought this was awful and the poor guy didn't deserve it, but upon locating one of his griefing videos, which is basically him brutally bullying and sexually harassing a girl online for an entire game, I am less inclined to feel any sympathy:


Seems to me he brought it on himself. The guy is a complete jackass and a disgrace to the gaming community. It's morons like this who give Jack Thompson and the anti-gaming media fuel for their fires.

He calls shit like this an 'innocent prank' and 'just fun and games'??? No. In my eyes this is blatant sexual harassment. If someone did this to one of my buddies, male or female, in a bar or somewhere public, he'd go home with a broken nose - if he was lucky.

It's pretty disturbing to see the amount of 'likes' and 'LMFAOs' on the video. What's more the dude is married... I certainly wouldn't be happy to hear my other half doing this to people online.

Maybe I'm just old and behind the times but there is no way in hell speaking to a woman like that would be acceptable in my peer group unless she was in on the joke and not upset by it, which this girl clearly is. It's bullying, it sucks and I don't like it.

What do you guys think?

Did he deserve such an extreme retribution?

And do any of you actually think his 'innocent prank' is funny?

Does he deserve some kind of payback, yes. Does he deserve a SWAT team busting down his door, I think not...

My first impression: Oh god, what's happened now? Poor bastard.

My reaction upon reading: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Shame he didn't try to resist or anything. Anyone know if he got subjected to flashbangs or something? Pepper spray? CS Gas?

Sounds like he definitely deserved what he got. Internet vigilantism and the retaliatory mindset it breeds always leaves a sour taste in my mouth, but this guy absolutely had it coming. No remorse.

Well, it wouldn't have been so bad, but Officer Reynolds dropped the flashbang in the doorway and the SWAT leader, blinded, sprayed fire wildly around the room, injuring several people. So he had to try the whole operation all over again...

Alright, name that reference.

OT: Less than he deserved.

His family certainly didn't deserve that. I bet his missus is pretty pissed with him right now...

Kinda how I feel about it too. If you have a family and kids you have also a responsibility to them not to be a complete jackass to other people.

SWAT4, I just hope no-one got in his way.

Personally I was always a good officer in that game, aside from my love of beating prisoners around the face.

guy deserves to get his ass kicked but not to use the cops in that way, i mean if people know wth he lives just go knock his teeth out or hire someone to do it. :p or sue his ass for harassment i mean based on his prank video alone would be grounds for sexual harassment nm he was streaming to all his buddies to spam the poor girl to the point she had to change her gdamn gamer tag. and the fact there could have been children watching that drivel while he was being an ahole.

Wow, what an asshole. I don't feel much sympathy for him. Actually I feel no sympathy for him. He's a god damn adult and he's acting like a damn child. Screw him.

However, why didn't the girl just mute him?

Dipshits like Keemstar deserve to have his "setup" shut down and this "prank" escalated to Supreme Court. No mercy for Internet predators.

Yeah, now I'm imagining a SWAT officer punching Keemstar in the f$#%ing soul and it amuses me.

You know, the only reason I have to be sorry that a SWAT team busted his house is that the team in question could have been needed elsewhere to deal with something else, instead of wasting time on a little piece of shit like that guy. Otherwise, I'm glad he got 'pranked' so hard, he certainly deserved it. Nobody should be spoken to in the way he was speaking in that video, especially when they're merely trying to have fun playing a game. If I was in that game in the second posted video, I'd have spoken out and basically told the little fucker exactly what I thought of him, in much harsher words than I'm allowed to use on The Escapist. And if I knew him in real life I'd have not only called him out, but proceeded to beat his ass into submission. Severely. And I'm not even much of a fighter, I'm fairly weak (however, I am very fast and agile), though I reckon I could easily take on someone so small that they have to resort to such crude and childish displays for attention...

Hell, if I knew the guy's address and phone number I'd 'leak' it on /b/ along with his videos, and see what they did to him. It'd be no more than the bastard deserves...

Totally had it coming.

A joke is joke, but that guy was just outright harassing some chick despite her asking several times for him to stop.

If the cops had shot his dog or something, then I might say it had gone too far. But as it was, I'd say that was just about perfect.

i'm not familiar with what you can and what you can't do on the box, but...can't you mute people? i would have had him on mute after that first line if that would have been me.

so one could say that somehow she must have wanted it.. ;D (kidding of course)
