THE LOOP — A Chicago man who had coffee spilled on him at a Loop Starbucks is facing misdemeanor charges after allegedly spitting on people, punching a man and hurling racial slurs in a videotaped tirade.

An ABC7 photojournalist witnessed the tirade and recorded it.

Police said the man throwing the punches and calling people "disposable vermin" and "slave" is William Boucher, 23. He was charged with three misdemeanor counts of battery, accused of physically and verbally abusing three people Tuesday.

Boucher declined to comment in a phone call with DNAinfo Friday, citing legal reasons related to his impending court date.

The incident occurred at 2:30 p.m. near State and Lake streets. It started after a black man spilled coffee on Boucher’s suit, according to ABC7.

“Shut up slave! Do not talk to me!” he said to the African-American man in the video. He also referred to the man who spilled coffee on him as livestock.

Boucher also was seen spitting on a 30-year-old man and 34-year-old woman, according to police.

He is just facing a misdemeanor or two, but future job searchers might prove to be a bit problematic for Mr. William Boucher.

The little wuss is lucky he didn’t get curb-stomped after all of that.

And apparently he was a big time Democrat. No wonder this wont be getting any press time.

“In one post, he comes to the defense of a Muslim woman wearing a hijab who was kicked out of a Donald Trump rally in January of 2016.

“This is total bullying!” he wrote. “Are any of you really voting for this kid? And I’d love to tell that woman in person how well she took that! I’d give her a high five!””

That would be quite a high price two pay for a staged event he was arrested no one will want to hire him in the future.

However, his job interviews will be interesting,

“Please tell me about that time yow were arrested?”

“Ah, I was at Starbucks and some person of color accidentally spilled coffee on me and from there I began dropping N Bombs on them, spit on every person of color I could see, told them they are slaves and then randomly punched some person of color that was walking down the street.”

The guy was a perfect caricature of a leftwing stereotype of a white racist.

Could you point me to you source please? Articles I have seen so far don't tell of his background.

He punched a woman and knocked her down. This jerk is lucky that the guys who tackled him didn’t give him a thrashing.

lol, never mind, I got to the bottom of the current article.

Ok, the statement about the woman with a hijab makes it likely he was anti-Trump in January of 2016. But that does not necessarily mean he was a Democrat nor leftists. There were many conservatives who thought Trump was a bully at the time. Still his actions at the Starbucks were not what I would expect from any conservative, nor even a modern racist of any kind. They were surreal.

How does using a Facebook post to defend a woman in a hijab make one a big time Democrat?

Yep, false flag. He tried to sound like a Trump supporter but his liberalism is shining through.
