While there continues to be speculation about what actually happened the night that Megan Thee Stallion was shot in the foot, fans who believe that fellow rapper Tory Lanez shot her have started a petition demanding his deportation back to Canada.

“Deport Tory Lanez (Daystar Peterson) back to Canada and ban him from coming to America FOREVER,” reads the scathing description of the Change.org petition.

“This little 5’3 man with a big ego has contributed nothing to the American Economy, and promotes violence and violence against women,” it continues. “Furthermore, he should be banned from the United States FOREVER for intentionally trying to harm Megan the Stallion. SEND HIM BACK TO CANADA ASAP!”

While some may find this stance nonsensical, the petition has already received 15,000 signatures.

As we previously reported, Monday, Megan took to Instagram Live to discuss the recent shooting incident and address those who have attempted to make light of what she says was a painful lesson.

“I didn’t deserve to get shot,” the Houston rapper says, fighting back tears on the live broadcast. She reveals to viewers that she was shot in both feet, resulting in surgery to remove the bullets.

“I was shot in both of my feet and I had to get surgery to get the sh– – , to get the bullets taken out, and it was super scary,” she says, detailing how the bullets missed bones and tendons.

The “Big Ol’ Freak” rapper expressed her disdain towards jokes regarding the traumatic experience.
