A viral video recorded by a train passenger shows the moment a train conductor booted a woman off the train after she hurled racist insults at fellow passengers.
According to the woman who uploaded the video to TikTok, she and her mother were traveling to Hartford, Connecticut, when the racist woman got on the train and verbally attacked them. “We were sitting next to each other, minding our business, when this lady got on the train and sat next to us,” wrote TikTok user @mrwa043, who identified as a Muslim. “As she took her seat, she looked at us and started shouting how Obama’s to blame for letting foreign exchange students into this country.” She explains that they initially attempted to ignore the woman, but the situation quickly escalated. “…she became increasingly more belligerent as she talked about white supremacy, [female genital mutilation], and the sexualization of children.
I made the decision to record her as we feared for our safety. Several passengers defended us and told her to stop. Some passengers got off the train and informed train workers.” Eventually, a train worker intervened, telling the woman to her face, “Do not talk to them like that!” “Look at me,” the worker told the woman, looking directly in her face. “You will never ride my train again.
I will look at you and tell you, you can’t ride. Do you understand that?” Watch the exchange below: You can read the victim’s full explanation below: This lady verbally attacked my mother and I on the train to Hartford yesterday evening.
