Racial and Homophobic Slurs Lead to Brawl on Green Line

DCist is reporting that a profanity-laced argument erupted on the green line yesterday and ultimately resulted in violence.

A white man was pushing his way onto a Branch Avenue-bound train much to the chagrin of his fellow riders. After several threats were made the white male called a black lady the n word and she called him a faggot.

A woman with her 15-year-old son recorded the entire incident. Once the man realized this he attempted to smack the phone out of her hand, which led to the melee.

My two cents: These slurs should never be used in public and all involved should be ashamed of themselves. Also, vertical video needs to be banned from YouTube.

What are your thoughts?

After working late a few weeks ago I thought I would shoot some video clips with the 8mm app. It’s a great app that I simply don’t use often enough. I forgot I had the clips on my phone until I recently tried to download more content and found the clips were taking up way to much space.

I put them together in this video and tried to make it look as first person as I could, even down to the two video screens acting as my eyes. Hope you like it. And if not, at least you’ll know what kind of beer I like :)
