Woman Hurls Anti-Muslim Slurs At Passenger Wearing Headscarf In Viral Video
A woman was caught on camera slamming a passenger wearing a headscarf with anti-Muslim slurs after an apparent dispute between the two. According to reports, the incident took place on a city bus traveling from Brooklyn to Staten Island.
The video, which went viral, was posted Wednesday on YouTube. In the footage, the aggressive woman is heard mocking the other female passenger that “ICE is here for you.”
“Did you see the sign, you f------ speak English?” the woman, who identifies herself as Ashley, says before looking toward the camera and addressing the individual taking the video. “I’m getting into a fight with some Muslim chick because she has an attitude because she thinks she has rights that she doesn’t have.”
She goes on with her anti-Muslim tirade, claiming that “immigration’s at the door,” adding: “Oh wait is that ICE? They’re here for you.”
Warning: Graphic language
This is not the first time such an incident took place were a passenger passed racist remarks at another. Most recently, another woman from Rockland County, New York, was captured on video slamming her co-passengers on a local bus earlier this month.
The unidentified woman spewed the N-word at Transport of Rockland passengers on Saturday.
“I hope you all got your m----------- papers,” she said in the video. “I’m sick of you m------------! You got papers to be in this country?”
The woman was later arrested after the bus driver alerted the Orangetown Police Department.
In another incident, an Asian man was caught on camera going off on a racist rant on a bus in New York because a woman didn't give up her seat for him. Facebook user Chelsea Soriano shared the video, which was viewed more than 130,000 times.
