Folks, you’re all missing the bigger picture here. At the end of the day, we might all make fun of Vince's antics, but, really, take a moment to consider that Vince didn't just bitch-slap Derek, he single handedly placed his entire family at shame by making Derek’s parents see/realize what their son has become.
One thing is if Derek decides to do the G4p thing on the side to make ends meet, but for Vince to then drag his mother and father, by his testicles might I add, into this by having them lose sleep and crying tears of pain onto nude and vulgar pictures of their son servicing older, white men that seem afflicted by the AIDS virus is just downright wrong and the biggest form of revenge that a man can bestow on another.
Vince wasn't trying to slap, punch or spit at Derek, oh no, he went further than that. Vince was trying to destroy any sense of dignity that Derek had left by taking it home and taking away any sense of family that the Anthony family once had. Both Derek's father and mother felt betrayed by their son’s actions.
Rumor has it that at family events, Derek is purposely kept away from his younger by cousins and is asked to not be left alone in a bedroom with any of the children. His father purposely wears a shirt and even pants when diving into the pool due to fear that Derek might be getting bad ideas while watching him take a dip. Hell, I even heard that Derek isn't even allowed to eat at the dining room table, while his father is present, he instead has to go and eat his dinner in his room. Supposedly, his mother doesn't even leave her toothbrush in the bathroom medicine cabinet for fear that Derek might use it one day and cross-contaminate her toothbrush with AIDS. Furthermore, on a day-to-day basis, neighbors yell out profanities as Derek drives by in his fancy car, profanities the likes of, “Queer, Pillow-bitter, FAGG0T-Fuck & AIDS-boy”.
So you see gentlemen, as much as we peg Vince as a coward for not murdering Derek on site after being spat on, we have to realize that Vince’s actions will forever bring turmoil to the Anthony house..
