Many UFC stars take it upon themselves to use their fame responsibly. They use their social media presence to promote themselves and to commentate on the contemporary happenings in society. One such star who has a notable presence on Twitter is UFC strawweight Angela Hill. The #12 ranked fighter often takes to Twitter to react to trending subjects. Recently, one tweet from American rapper Ice T caught Hill’s eye for the distressing content.

The millionaire star shared a video of a couple being harassed in the name of race. The 65-year-old shared his frustration on the matter in his tweet. He also mentioned how he would have dealt with the racist heckler.

In the clip shared on Twitter, a man behind the camera approached a couple (white girlfriend, black boyfriend) and started lecturing them about mixing races. The video does not show the man’s face as he keeps recording the couple and their friends throughout the length of the clip. He claimed that the woman was setting back 5,000 year worth of evolution by mixing races with the black individual.

Even though the woman, who claimed to be a scientist herself, argued it was false, their harasser did not budge an inch. After a point, the couple’s friend had to intervene. A white man himself, he tried to deal with the heckler but to no avail. Eventually, the group of friends had to walk away writing off the racist individual as a lost cause.
