TMZ: Andrew Bynum Getting Sued By ‘Racist’ LA Neighbors For Blasting Music, Producing Weed Clouds, & Brandishing Firearms
TMZ – Bynum — a former member of the L.A. Lakers — claims that ever since he moved into his fancy home in Westchester, CA more than 7 years ago, he’s been constantly harassed by his neighbors, Ramond and Cindy Beckett.
According to his lawsuit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Bynum says … the Becketts have objected to his “profession, his race, his friends, his cars and his taste in music.”
Bynum claims the Becketts have behaved like petulant children — throwing coins at his Ferrari (which chipped the paint), screaming at him about his music, and even banging the side of his house with “a long stick.”
But the Becketts quickly responded to the lawsuit with a countersuiit of their own — TRASHING Bynum as the neighbor from hell who only sued them to preemptively strike against the lawsuit they had been planning.
In their legal docs, the Becketts UNLOAD on the NBA star — claiming he’s guilty of the following misdeeds:
– brandishing FIREARMS in an attempt to intimidate the Becketts
– “apparently” using drugs and allowing weed smoke to drift next door
– blasting loud, profane rap music (including the song “Currency” by Trina)
– blasting his video games at “window-shaking volumes”
– letting his dogs run loose through the neighborhood
– constantly racing his luxury cars at dangerous speeds
Bynum has denied the allegations … and according to docs filed by Andrew, the Becketts have sold their house since the lawsuit was filed … so they’re no longer neighbors.
Listen I don’t wanna go out on a limb and call the Becketts racists outright since I don’t know those people and am not privy to any details outside of what TMZ reported right here, but to me Bynum is right these people come off as 100% racist. They’re complaining about guns, fast cars, and loud music. Just as a quick reminder to everybody — THIS IS AMERICA. This country damn-near changed our flag to hot blonde holding a gun while blasting music from a Mustang during the mid 1980s. That shit is in our blood. And a problem with his weed smoke drifting over next door? You live in LOS ANGELES! Why the hell else does someone live in LA if they aren’t planning on sitting out in the beautiful weather smoking weed? Like I’m legit confused as to what these people have a problem with. You don’t like music, fast cars, weed, video games, or guns? Move to China then, racists.
Cue the music!
woah you’re taking Bynum’s side? didn’t see that coming.
You’re right though, he’s always been such a great guy don’t know why anyone would believe he does all those things.
Clue is someone that annoys you
N_ggers
Can you solve it?
n-word
Mo, this tongue-in-cheek stuff doesn’t work when you’re black.
Sounds like a regular black dude to me. Literally do all of those things, except for driving around in their luxury cars. That pretty much never happens.
Hasn’t stepped on the floor.
that song sucks
You can’t polish a sneaker Mo. Bynum’s still a punk who belongs on the stoop.
JUST ONCE DON”T TAKE THE BLACK GUYS SIDE
What is a word that begins with N that you don’t want to call blacks? Neighbor!
Holy shit mo you are just awful
What a pickup. That trade has been really beneficial to the Sixers.
niggs gonna nig
We wouldn’t have this problem if the South had won.
Ramond Beckett here, I take exception to what you’re accusing me of. Just because I have a problem with that nigger blasting his “Rap” music, smoking cannabis, racing cars, and playing his video game systems, doesn’t mean I hate niggers. In no way am I a “racist” down here we have a system. Be white, or it isn’t right as I like to say. We typically enjoy a nice cup of tea in our early mornings, not a “joint” or whatever you kids call it now-a-days. But like I said, in no way am I a racist just because I take exception to what those monkeys do. Good day.
-Ramond Beckett.
Yeah because black people never blast their rap music out of their cars just to piss everyone off around them. Entitlement is their only way of thinking.
And this boys and girls is why there is such a thing as white flight.
Nothing worse than an illiterate, porch monkey suddenly given millions for playing a play ground game. You can take the yard ape out of the hood but the hood will never be removed from the yard ape.
that was quite eloquently put and poetic @rearender
So unsurprised. I go to college at LMU which is in Westchester and used to see Bynum all the time before the trade. Dude IS kind of a dick. He would park his black Maserati in the handicapped space in front of the local grocery store all the time. Just giving 0 fucks. On second thought I can dig it.
