Default English woman has racist meltdown on tram - another on a tube

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-15923875

Quote:
A woman has been arrested after an online video apparently showed a woman abusing ethnic minority passengers on a packed south London tram.

The clip, viewed more than 10,600 times since being uploaded to YouTube on Sunday, shows a woman sitting with a child, shouting at fellow passengers.
Pretty vile stuff - feel desperately sorry for her child. What hope has he got with a Mom like that?

The clip is NSFW - language and offensive behavior.

Nice comfy pleasant trip home from the market.

If this tram was a private business then I can see them banning her from using their service. But....Exactly, what was she arrested for? Hurt feelings?

No it is ridiculous that she is being arrested for a racist F-bomb rant and people calling it a hate crime.

Leaving aside what we all think of her views, just expressing them in public in the way she did put her child at risk of violence, for that reason alone he should be taken into care.

Oh come on guys, that's a little harsh. HOZ isn't saying that what she said wasn't wrong - he's saying is calling this a hate crime warranted. Believing that it's not a hate crime doesn't make you racist.

I'm pretty sure only racists will be offended by her being charged with a hate crime.

People shouldn't have to be subject to a "racist f-bomb rant" just because of the colour of their skin.

The irony is somebody British being mad at people from other countries coming into her country.

Disturbing the peace, or tumultuous conduct is a criminal offense in most jurisdictions. I suspect it doesn't lead to much more than a fine in most cases

Hilarious youtube comment..

this is what reading the daily mail and watching the x factor does to the human brain. It results in a condition known as slagititis. Where the afflicted is compelled to drink cheap cider, dress in burberry and tracksuits and pine for the days of the british empire when all the darkies worked for them.
