Gary Dourdan Issues Excuse for Photog Assault

Last night Gary Dourdan repeatedly smashed a photog’s head into the ground for taking pictures of him while he was on a public street. That person could have been you or me just trying to get a shot of our favorite star. The photog has the legal right to take pictures of anyone in a public area. Dourdan broke the law by physically assaulting the photog. When stars break the law, and then act like they did nothing wrong, it’s up to us to knock them off their above-the-law perch, and let them know their crap stinks just like ours does. There’s nothing worse than a perpetrator (Dourdan) blaming the victim (the photog). Here’s more:

Gary Dourdan’s reps released (to another media outlet) their official for Dourdan’s vicious attack on a TMZ cameraman last night.

Despite video evidence of Dourdan beating and then chasing our photographer, the coward’s people blamed TMZ, saying, "Gary has always been respectful of the media and the paparazzi but also values his privacy. It’s our belief that this is a minor incident exaggerated by an eager paparazzo in order to create a story."

After assaulting the photog, Dourdan sped off on his Ducati, but then later came back with his entourage and started chasing the photographer around Hollywood in a Town Car. It was scary for the photog, and he should sue Dourdan so he learns to respect the law that prohibits violence against others.

To really understand how scary and serious the whole situation was, click below and watch the full 15 minutes of video. The video is just okay, but the audio tells the story.
