Former UFC and Bellator star Tito Ortiz is once again at the center of controversy with his role in the Huntington Beach City Council ? this and much more on Wednesday's social media roundup.
Tito Ortiz reacts to being thrown out of Huntington Beach City Council meeting
Former MMA star now turned politician, Tito Ortiz has not come into his role in the Huntington Beach City Council quietly. Since Ortiz became a member of his home town council he has received lots of negative press and has been involved in multiple altercations with residents. Recently, Ortiz was involved in a very heated altercation with a Huntington Beach resident. In the video of the altercation, Ortiz can be seen getting in the face of the man who is behind the camera and getting very aggressive. This is not the only controversy Ortiz has been in as now he has been thrown out of a Huntington Beach City Council meeting for the very first time for refusing to wear a mask... again. Ortiz reacted to being thrown out.
It has been made very clear to members of the Huntington Beach City Council that people who do not wish to wear masks may join the meetings via Zoom. It seems Ortiz completely ignored these instructions and did things his own way as per usual. In a previous interview with a local media outlet, Ortiz was asked why he does not choose to wear masks. When asked the question, Ortiz replied by saying, "It's against my constitutional rights." Will Ortiz ever stop being at the center of controversy?
