White Supremist Gets Ass Handed to Her for Wearing “Obama is My Slave” T-Shirt

Oh joy. An idiotic graduate student, Nathanaeli Nassimi, got her ass beat by four black chicks when she was caught wearing an “Obama Is My Slave” t-shirt. The girls approached her after noticing her blatantly racist tee and decided to give her a good old beating for being about as bright as a pile of bricks.

Nassimi ran away from them and called the “” store on Orchard Street where she had purchased her t-shirt and complained about the attack to the employee who was working in the shop at that time.  The employee agreed to give Nassimi the owner’s, relentless media whore Doron Braunshtein a.k.a. , cell phone number and the still shocked Nassimi told him about the attack and informed him she was thinking of suing him “for all he’s got”.  Braunshtein in return told her that he was very sorry she had been attacked, but that she could not blame him because as he told her “No one made you buy the t-shirt”.  Nassimi said that she would come the following day and demand a refund for the t-shirt, which cost her $69. Braunshtein told her that he doesn’t give refunds because it is against his store policy.

This made her even more agitated and she started to scream at him saying that he should be “ashamed of himself”.  Braunshtein asked her for her phone number saying that he would speak to his lawyer and call her back. Apparently, Nassimi is now planning on suing Apollo for designing the shirt.

While I can understand Nassimi’s anger at Apollo, I can only say that he’s really done no wrong here. Yes, the shirt is offensive and obviously racist, but it was Nassimi’s stupidity that made her purchase it thinking she wouldn’t get her ass kicked in NYC.  Personally, I’d be more pissed about spending $69 bucks on a t-shirt that cost about $2 bucks and ten minutes to make.

Since we really don’t feel right about letting racist enjoying a day without being called a douchebag here are the numbers of both Nathanaeli and Doron for your ranting pleasure. The PR agent who sent me this wonderfully nauseating story was kind enough to provide them for me. I’d strongly suggest calling both between the hours of  1:00 AM - 6:00 AM.

To speak with Nathanaeli Nassimi about the incident, you can reach her at phone number: 516-220-7024.
To speak with Doron Braunshtein aka , you can reach him at phone number: 212-726-8075.

    Apollo is disgusting,shouldn’t have the right to sell the crappy shit he does…This girl is obviously not the sharpest scissor in fashion closet…I think its offensive that he calls himself a designer,the only thing more disgusting is the peeps who shop there…

    Apollo, doesn’t deserve to be given airtime! He is a bigot and an embarrassment to the arts as well as design! This is a man who thinks he can join the ranks of Andy Warhol? Both Apollo and Nassima are racist! Don’t bother giving him the audience as it’s what he’s craving!

    I actually live around the corner from this asshole’s store and as a black man I occasionally go in and scare the living shit out of him. He’s not really a racist - he just has an extreme fear of black people (LOL). This guy is worthless - absolutely worthless. However, I would suggest that people call him between 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. as it seems the store is only open during the late night. Something tells me that this guy works during the day at Dunkin Donuts to pay the rent on his little shithole of a store.

    Keep selling these shirts! They properly and effectively identify each buyer as a complete and utter asshole who requires immediate and repetitive face-punching.

    Well done!

    links from Technoratifuck is wrong with the hipster asshole who decided to make and sell “Obama Is My Slave” t-shirts? (That’s a rhetorical question.) He apparently believes that Obama is a Muslim, and thus “Obama=Hitler” (another t-shirt he makes and sells). As seen atFashion Indie, Steel Closet, and Jezebel, among other sites.

    She’s not a white supremist. There’s no such thing. It’s possible she’s a white supremacist, but I really wouldn’t know without speaking with her or at least reading her opinions on race. I’m glad we all conclude she’s a brainless whore for spending that much on a patently stupid and offensive shirt.
