Watch: ‘This Is America!’ Homophobe Declares After Attacking Man He Called ‘Faggot’ In Airport
A man bothered by “queers” in the Dallas airport assaulted one man he called a “faggot” and announced he did it because “this is America!”
A man in the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport apparently was so upset by a fellow passenger that he chose to verbally attack him — and then kick him in the groin. The unnamed assailant according to some news reports appeared intoxicated.
Travelers were clearly cautious as the bearded, red-haired, heavy-set man wearing just a tee-shirt and jeans was acting strange.
After walking away from the ticket counter line, the man is asked by a bystander why he’s so upset.
“Queers!” the unnamed, soon-to-be assailant, announced. “That’s what I’m upset about. This faggot right here.”
Seconds later, the man kicks another man, who happens to be wearing a pink shirt, in the groin.
That’s when bystanders became active participants, with several of them bringing him down on the ground as police intervene.
Once handcuffed, the man claims he punched his victim in the face, and tells a person off-camera that “this is America, that’s why, the same reason you get to live and walk Black.”
Kudos to the bystanders who weren’t going to allow a fight, to the police for acting quickly and appropriately, and to Andrew Kennedy who shot the video and posted it to YouTube.
