Shep Rose is getting destroyed for making fun of a homeless lady, but he's not backing down.
The "Southern Charm" party boy posted a video Monday night making fun of a woman sitting on the street next to several trash bags filled with cans. The woman covered her face with her hands, but he recorded her anyway and could be heard saying, “Look at me ... Nice cans! I mean, the cans you have!”
He followed up by writing, “I love double entendres. Yes she was camera shy. But she laughed.”

As expected, Twitter erupted with people upset at the 39-year-old for his actions.
The post has been deleted from Shep's page but one Twitter user screen-recorded the video and posted it to emphasize disappointment in Rose’s behavior, writing: “Is this Southern Charm? … Cheap way to get ‘laughs’ from followers but there is nothing funny about homelessness. I’m DONE w/ him.”
Another person wrote, "was really, REALLY disappointed in that video you posted harassing a homeless woman who clearly did not want to be filmed."

However, Rose is not backing down on the situation and actually responded to the online critics, writing, “Omg. I offended you! Ok. Here’s the plan, sensitivity training 5 times a week. Then intensive therapy (hot yoga?) followed by a public flogging in the town square. Then i move to Siberia and live in an igloo for 4 months. At this point. I think I’ll be cleansed of your disapproval.”
To another commenter he suggested them to, “Unfollow then. No big deal.”

Rose explained, “Doesn’t matter. You follow me. You can easily get out of the situation. It’s not a binding contract. I am not responsible for your happiness. If i miss the mark in your mind just keep scrolling."
Bravo has yet to comment ... but it's not the first time one of their reality stars has stirred up some real-life drama.
