Every day all day in every major city. For being fat, for being white, for being black, for speaking another language. Most aren't recorded.

I saw this the other day. There was also a video of a woman in Walmart calling a Latino woman and black woman nasty names. I'm happy these people get their mugs flashed across the internet. Its shameful to treat others in such a hateful and callous way. I also think it helps legitimize what minorities have been putting up with for years. Unfortunately, many people don't believe what minorities go through every day. I think videos like this are eye opening.

And undoubtedly, he's a Trump supporter - a deplorable Trump supporter.
And Proud of it like the rest of the Deplorables.

Obviously, you aren't sticking to the narrative here.

Bad reporting by CNN. There is way more to this story we are not seeing.
Spanish is a very loud language. Torres may have been disturbing everyone around him.

The story was not about anger over the guy speaking Spanish.

Only to those who are willing to see. Sadly, many are not.
