I Was Told There’d Be Punches and Spit on The C Train

you know what’s funny?
i asked someone the other day:

“can you bring a gun on the train?”

not that i was,
but i wanted to know how safe were we on the mta.
that’s new yawk’s train system.
well they responded a shocking “yes”.
so those metal things i go through aren’t detecting weapons?
duly noted.
well a f-bi sent me this article today of more homophobic drama in new yawk.
this time,
it’s on the c train in brooklawn via the ny daily news

A hate-filled straphanger spewing anti-gay slurs punched and spat on a stranger on a subway train in Brooklyn, officials said Saturday.

“You’re a f—–g f—-t and are probably f—–g the guy right next to you,” the assailant seethed, before repeatedly punching the 29-year-old victim in the face on a Manhattan-bound C train about 9 a.m. Thursday, police said.

The unprovoked attack erupted as the train was headed toward the Lafayette Ave. station in Fort Greene.

“N—–s like me take care of f—–s like you,” the unhinged assailant said before spitting in the victim’s face and punching him two more times, according to cops.

The attacker dashed from the train at the Hoyt-Schermerhorn station and ran off.

The victim stayed on the train until he reached the 59th St. station in Midtown, where he reported the incident to police. He was not seriously hurt and refused medical attention. The Daily News is withholding the victim’s name because the suspect was still being sought late Saturday.

The victim’s roommate said the battered man left the city to be with family shortly after the attack.

Cops are investigating the assault as a possible hate crime.

The suspect is described as a black man, about 25 years old with long black hair. He was wearing red sweatpants and purple headphones at the time of the attack, officials said.

The attack comes as the NYPD tries to get a handle on a spike in anti-gay bias crimes, as well as hate crimes in general.

Police investigated 17 hate crimes based on one’s sexual orientation through March 26two more than the same time period a year before. That’s a 13% increase.

Overall hate crimes have doubled over the last year, with 131 being logged as of March 26. At the same time last year, only 65 hate crimes had been investigated, officials said.

The rise in hate crimes has been fueled by anti-Semitic crimes, which has nearly tripled in the last year from 28 to 67, officials said.

Anyone with information regarding Thursday’s incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS

  1. According to NYPD statistics Hate crimes across the city shot up 106 percent in March.Hate crimes surged following the election of Trump and continued to climb.All types of hate crimes but the largest number is based on sexual orientation.In March alone there were 60 total hate crimes the same number that took place in Jan and Feb combined.
    Google”Rise in Hate Crimes”
    No they are not all Trump supporters but they feel empowered to act out at “others” just like he does,he sets the climate,IMO.

    1. Margarine just like most of 45’s stupid supporters are allergic to facts, no need to even entertain them.

  2. I feel like Trump has nothing to do with this. You have ppl that are out there that don’t like gay people. I remember that I was on the train listening to music one time and these guys came on and made it loud and obvious to me and everyone else that they had a issue with gays. Three dudes that were my age. It bothers them because that’s what they are foghting against. When they fight or ridicule us, they are fighting the personification of what they see within themselves. Be safe and walk with a heavy boxcutter.

  3. I’m about as liberal as they come, but I do believe in exercising my Second Amendment rights. That’s all I have to say about that.

  4. Uh Newsflash, these types of crimes have skyrocketed since Trump took office, even though this jackass was probably just a homophobic ass and Trump had nothing to do with him attacking this dude, these racist attack are happening all around the country because his rabid ass supporters feel embolden to take their hate out on others.

    On another note, Trump is anti everything except making money, I cant with these Trump defenders, but I aint worried either, because you run up on me, you take the chance of getting another hole put in your ass.

    1. Right. They say he’s not anti-gay, yet, he’s removing the LGBTQ designation from the 2020 census. When you can pretend that we don’t exist, it makes it easier to discriminate against us.

      This is Trump’s America.

    2. Skyrocketed or just now being reported? If there are official statistics, I’ll believe it. And again, if the black assailant did vote, it was likely for Hillary. Just sayin…

      1. In all likelihood this asshole can’t vote because he is on papers. But if he could I would bet money he would support Pence who threatened to have gay couples jailed if they attempted to get a marriage license.I bet he would support conversion therapy.I bet he would support an administration that would consider LGBT people so “insignificant” that they don’t need to be included in the 2020 census.
        Just saying…

  5. I don’t recall Trump being anti-gay. In fact, you could argue that he was s supporter long before it became politically popular. And if one sites the bathroom repeal, recall that many gays feel the same

    1. @Butter

      Agreed. I don’t know why Trump’s name was even mentioned in this thread. He was never a political culture warrior. If anything, the suspect was probably a Black guy who didn’t vote for anyone in the election.

    2. Trump selected Pence so IMO you are the company you keep.You can Google Pence’s anti gay policies when he was governor.Just like Trump selected white nationalist,supremacist Steve Bannon as a trusted advisor.You align yourself with a nationalist because you hold similar views,IMO.Tom Arnold, Don Cheadle and others have heard Trump call black people “Niggers”.

  6. This is terrible. You always have to be aware of your surroundings. Even on the train.
