Warning: Racist spouts the n-word/f-word

We did it. We've reached peak nonsense. And once again, the black person has to have the patience of Jesus Christ

Be racist against gay people if old.

Instinct Magazine reported that Robert Ortiz and some friends were picked up by Shaun Pepas Lettman after leaving a gay bar in New York. Ortiz asked Lettman if he could play some music over the car's stereo system and when the driver said no, the passenger began an argument with him.

Lettman began recording after pulling over due to the argument with Ortiz — and captured the passenger not only calling the police on him, but also calling him a racial slur.

After posting the video of the lengthy altercation to YouTube, Lettman revealed in a GoFundMe page that Lyft suspended his driver account for two days to investigate the incident — causing him to lose two days' worth of wages.

"After the end of the video, I had to also call the police for myself expressing my concerns and fear of what will happen if I was not assisted," the driver wrote. "Luckily there was no physical confrontation but the company I drive with felt it necessary to cancel my account pending investigation. Unfortunately, expenses weren't suspended and I am left to dig myself out of an awfully stressful predicament."

The "Insulted but Not Broken" fundraiser earned Lettman over $21,000 at press time, and Instinct revealed that Ortiz had been fired from his job at a CityMD urgent care center.

I do thing I've heard this before. But knowing this crazy world, it's probably a completely different incident.

Stopped watching after two minutes. There's nothing to say, but man the passengers are so fucking stupid.

They're fearful, but won't leave his car. Ok.

That dude probably didn't vote at all and was trying to egg the driver on to get pissed off and fuck up.

Give 'em enough rope, and they'll hang themselves.

Just let the dumbass keep talking and watch the results.

Gay people have come a long way and now have the same level of douchelords as straight people. You've arrived!


The satisfying news about this is that the guy's life is currently being absolutely dismantled - announcing his phone number and name was peak stupid - and that his nominal advocates are mostly homophobic so they'll let him hang out to dry.


BTW, if you're wondering why the driver refused to let them play music from their phone over his stereo - it's a nightmare to sort and unpair multiple phones (as anyone who's rented a car with Bluetooth has probably realized) and further, can be a giant two way security liability as the car tries to eat all your contacts, or send them to some random bastard's phone. AND they were coming out of a club so they were probably about to blast some garbage.

I could probably handle everything up until he put the phone in his face like. If someone did that to me, I'd probably instinctively just slap the phone out of my face and it would probably escalate from there.

What an absurd piece of shit. Even his friends realised after a few minutes that they fucked up.

The driver showed a lot of restraint here. Not even a nasty facial expression. I would have loved to see what the police said when they did arrive and I'm happy the passenger lost his job over this.
