Rapper VonMar Harasses Gas Station Employees, Vandalizes Store: Cruel Prank Went Too Far? [Video]

Warning: Video contains profanity that may be offensive to some viewers.

Pranks are meant to be funny, but there are definitely times when pranks reach a level of cruelty that isn’t a joking matter. Thotboyz rapper VonMar recently sparked a debate with a controversial video he “starred in” that was featured on World Star Hip Hop.

For those who haven’t heard of him, he’s an internet sensation who gained notoriety from videos he’s shared via Vine, YouTube, and World Star Hip Hop. VonMar, also known as Mr. “PutEmInACoffin,” has quite a following, with more than 20,000 YouTube subscribers, and now he’s uploaded yet another video. Apparently, he and a friend thought it would be quite comical to have some fun inside a local 7-11 gas station. But, did they take their antics too far?

The footage begins with the two men entering the convenience store. Throughout the two-minute video, VonMar and his friend can be seen taunting and harassing the gas station employees. He can also be heard chanting his notable hashtag, #PutEmInACoffin which is often the caption for his videos. Then, things go a bit further when he goes behind the counter and starts hitting buttons on the cash register. Of course, the employees are appalled by his bold actions and threaten to call the police.

However, he isn’t bothered by the threat at all. He continues taunting the male and female employees, and even mocks the man when he picks up the phone to make the call. But, things get even worse when he begins vandalizes the store. He leaves from behind the counter and ventures down one of the aisles. VonMar leaps on top of the candy shelf knocking items everywhere, and the employee is obviously furious. Before exiting, they also grab a coffee machine and run out of the store.

Needless to say, the video has created quite an uproar. While a few viewers found VonMar’s actions hilarious, others couldn’t find the humor in the antagonizing video. Others also felt he should face charges for his actions. Several media outlets have even used his actions as a prime example of the “thug culture” that continues to plague society.

Mad World News described “thug culture” as the praise and validation of unacceptable behavior. The rapper’s behavior reportedly depicts why “thug culture” poses a threat to society and the ongoing fight against racial profiling. Many viewers even went a step further, arguing that such behavior contributes to the number of African-American males killed by police officers. Needless to say, a lot of the comments were quite brutal.

Here’s what people had to say.

“The criminal seems to be well identified, so when will the arrest happen or was this staged by the idiot to make himself look important.”

“And people wonder why they gunning n—-s down in the streets now if they killed his simple a– people would go crazy.”

“I don’t support making myself happy if it means the guaranteed unhappiness of others. Attacking and destroying someone else’s property just to make yourself happy is a load of self-righteous bulls—.”

“A disgrace to humankind. There’s nothing funny about their criminal activity. One day they’ll reap the rewards of their criminal behavior whether in the form of a bullet or jail time. This filth should be removed from civilized society since they obviously don’t belong within it. SMDH….”
