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?
