Interracial couple gets harassed on date night

Disturbing video shows an interracial couple being harassed by a bigot who calls a Caucasian woman “the lowest rung of humanity.”

The video shows a black man and a white woman sharing a meal at an undisclosed restaurant when the man begins the racially motivated rant.

“Look at this fuckery,” the man filming says to himself. He then asks the pair if they are a couple.

After the diner says yes, his harasser continues: “You had to go to the lowest rung of humanity? … If they are even humans. Like are you that weak?”

Video at link. (Yes, he actually filmed it) I couldn't watch it, but the thought makes my stomach turn.

Says why couldn't he find a good black woman had to go down and get the lowest rung of humanity a white woman....


Methinks the OP missed this by not watching the video otherwise probably wouldn't have posted.

If you have something to say, say it. These little obscurantist games some posters play is infuriating.

And he probably watched the video numerous times (with several accoutrements, such as Kleenex, anticipating posting it on DU).

Not exactly news, except Bravo for the couple for not taking the bait and beating the bigot senseless.

Just like the TV news!

Thank you, philosslayer. I'd never see videos like this without you.

We mustn't forget reverse racism exists.
