Leslie Jones Exposes Racist Bullies Who Send Her Vile Messages On Twitter
We had a great time meeting and interviewing Leslie Jones just last week, so we were extremely sad to see that during the time she should be celebrating opening week of her blockbuster debut “Ghostbusters” she’s instead forced to deal with hateful messages from the racist bullies and trolls who have nothing better to do than tweet evil her way.
Last night she opened up about the experience in a series of shocking tweets:
She was immediately comforted by Loni Love and Sherri Shepherd, who have had similar experiences:
Sounds pretty crazy right? Well it gets even deeper. Hit the flip for the rest of Leslie’s comments and to see some of the craziness sent her way.
It's so sad,most of these comments sound like they are from ignorant children. "I'm the source of AIDS?!" WTF!! These people hate themselves

You have to hate yourself to putout that type of hate. I mean on my worst day I can't think of this type of hate to put out.

I don't know how to feel. I'm numb. Actually numb. I see the words and pics and videos. Videos y'all. Meaning people took time to sprew hate

I use to wonder why some celebs don't have Twitter accts now I know. You can't be nice and communicate with fans cause people crazy.

As much as I love live-tweeting posting the pics of awesome things that happen in this life I've been blessed with. I don't know anymore.

As much as you want to thinks actors ain't human I want to give you something to think about. I work off pure passion for this game.

I've never claim to be better or special. I just try to do my job as best as I can. Isn't that any of us yall. So Yea this hurts me!

It's like when you think "ok I've proven I'm worthy" then you get hit with a shovel of hated. I'm numb. I mean I know there is racism.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
But I'm I that naive to think that some things was changing yes I was. We still live in a world where we have to say "black lives matter"
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
I'm so tired of it. Why is this still a fight? I want to hate so bad but I can't because I know it doesn't fix anything and just make me sad
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
I'm not stupid to not know racism exists. And I know it will probably live on way after me. But we have to make people take responsibility
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
responsibility for the hate they sprew. We have to stand up to it. block mfs but let them know they are racist and sprewing hate.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Stop letting g people get away with being ignorant. You stupid people to shut up. Tell them to shut up real talk. Say something.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
I'm tired of everybody not believing they can change something. We are the people we can change anything if we want. We stop eating spinach
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Cause we thought it was hurting us. You mean to tell me we can't stop hate. I don't believe that. I just am sadden today.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Twitter I understand you got free speech I get it. But there has to be some guidelines when you let spread like that. You can see on the

Profiles that some of these people are crazy sick. It's not enough to freeze Acct. They should be reported.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
And for all the "don't stoop to their level people" it's way past that. So please have a seat. Don't tell me how to react.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Cause I have every right to be offended and pissed. So for right now I have to take a break. All this hatred giving me the blues! Outty 5000
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Things went even further left as Leslie freaked out after someone created fake tweets from her account.
I feel like I'm in a personal hell. I didn't do anything to deserve this. It's just too much. It shouldn't be like this. So hurt right now.
— Leslie Jones (@Lesdoggg) July 19, 2016
Please help me find this fake Acct posting the most awful shit in my name. Help! pic.twitter.com/lp4RzVLb6f

This is just heartbreaking. We hope that Leslie knows the rest of the world doesn’t agree with these evil people. Keep pushing Ms. Jones because you are already creating change with every move you make.
If you feel like getting mad some of Leslie’s hate mail when you continue.
Leslie started retweeting some of the disgusting messages
