So my colleague and I were catching up after not seeing each other for a while.

She’s just accepted a new position as an administrator at the community college up the street from where I work. I wanted to welcome her to the neighborhood and her new job.

We arranged to meet at a Starbucks in between our two institutions on Capitol Hill in Seattle. We talked for maybe 30 or 40 minutes. It’s the kind of innocuous catch-up talk that two college administrators do when we’re trying to figure out what we’ve been up to since we last talked.

My awareness of the incident, as I later explained it to the police officer who took my statement, started with me realizing that my right hand was wet.

We were in a Starbucks and there was lots of liquid around. My cortical brain told me that most likely someone spilled something. But then, I heard someone behind me say something that sounded like, “f*****g n****r b***h.”

My brain needed a new explanation. I turned and realized that a young, white man in his early 20s behind me, neatly dressed with short-cropped hair with a dark-colored backpack, was directing this statement at my colleague.

As I turned to face him, he said, “That’s right, f*****g n*****r b***h” again. He walked to the door and walked out. The incident didn’t really register with me, even as he walked out.

I would only believe this if the offending statement was in writing on a cake, on a receipt or spray painted on his door. Then of course, I would not doubt it.

He went outside and stood at the window yelling more comments that we could not hear. .... He was also visibly angry. He did not present as mentally disturbed

Assuming this story isn't completely fabricated, we're to believe that the perp in question was spitting and screaming both inside and outside the establishment but that he WASN'T mentally disturbed? ...that it was simply hatred of black people who drove him to act like that? Yeah, sure.

My guess is that next time, this young man will be more violent. Unstopped, antisocial behavior like this escalates.

No doubt. See the thugs in the #BLM movement for countless examples.

People of my generatiom were taught this early. That’s why we’re so puzzled by those who claim irreparable damage and lifelong problems because of speech. These fragile pansies wouldn’t have even survived for long in our day.

It was wrong but it’s also wrong to expect a crowd of people to jump up and confront a deranged man in a starbucks. That’s not how it works anymore and it has nothing to do with race. Most of the patrons were probably planning their escape route for when the shooting started.

I call BS on this story.

Hope someone got his picture on their cell phone...

Then when the police catch him and it turns out he's a member of the College Young Democrats - we can put another 'hoax' (hate crime against the right) to rest.

Name calling is rather common. I think there are slightly more important issues facing the country.

Yep, his view seems to be to judge not on the color of one’s skin, but on the perception of one’s social status.

“But the young man didn’t see educated college administrators sitting at the table.”

I suspect that he was mad as hell about the tuition they charge.

If this story is accurate the individual that hurled racial epithets is obviously mentally deranged.

Based on past incidents of fake racial hatred, I suspect this is fake. I would like to see the police report if there is one. I suspect there is not one.

Could be false flag, but liberals are pretty racist when the “others” start moving into their enclaves.

A man shouts racial slurs in a Seattle Starbucks. The silence is deafening

Gee, I wonder if everyone was thinking this is bizarre enough to be a setup hoax for a hidden camera recording, or a Leftist Media setup hoax public incident?

I know my first reaction would be: staged!

The whole thing is a lie. Just like every other fabrication by fags, blacks, etc, who want some attention.

I, too call BS on this. If it did happen, I think the young dude was mentally disturbed.

What’s beyond pathetic is someone called the police because someone said nasty words.

“911. What’s your emergency?”

“You’ve got to come quick. There’s this man, and he said a bad word. Come quick!”

“We’ll be right there. You poor thing.”
