Terry Crews is firing back at comedian D.L. Hughley for questioning Crews’ alleged sexual assault.
In August, DL was asked his opinion on Terry’s #MeToo experience and DL ridiculed Terry for not using his muscles to prevent being assaulted.
“I think it’s hard for me to think that a dude with all those muscles can’t tell an agent to not touch his ass,” Hughley explained during an interview with Vlad TV.
“I don’t understand. I think that now everybody’s so into this notion that, ‘It happened to me to me too.’ Hey, motherf——, God gave you muscles so you could say no and mean it,” Hughley added.
Terry saw the clip and called DL out on Twitter — and ultimately threatened to slap him.
You told the world “God Gave Me Muscles So I Could Say No…”
Are you implying I “wanted” to be sexually assaulted?
I’m listening, sir…https://t.co/v6Q4xrvfJQ

Sir you said I should have pushed him back, or restrained him and I DID ALL THOSE THINGS… but you act like I didn’t.
Were you there?

I have looked up to you my whole career as one of the funniest most talented people I’ve ever seen.
I remember when I saw you warming up the crowd at FRESH PRINCE OF BEL AIR and I thought “this man is a genius.”

But now you are an example of when comedy turns to sarcasm and cynicism. And you find it extremely easy to get jokes at someone else expense. You mock my success, but all I ever did was support you.

You @50cent @unclerush and @tariqnasheed have decided my sexual assault was hilarious, whereas there are a whole generation of black women and men who don’t think it’s funny.
ABUSERS PROTECT ABUSERS but they MOCK SURVIVORS as well.
When you see me, keep it moving.

So sir…
If you truly feel that is a correct way to deal with toxic behavior…
Should I slap the shit out of you? https://t.co/GmePqluEIX

DL has yet to respond.
