Are anti-Semitic slurs and threatening body gestures considered 'looks' now?
Would your reaction be the same if it was a white male terrorizing an African-American?
Odd and disgusting how the mainstream media doesn't seem all that upset about all these attacks on Jews by African-Americans.
My reaction would be the same. Stand up for yourself instead of pulling out a damn cell phone to record. That's the "in" thing now. He's expecting someone else to "protect" him. Give me a break. If he showed even an ounce of courage, the guy likely would've backed off. Once someone puts a hand on you, you are within your rights to defend yourself, because quite frankly, no one else is going to.

After what just happened in Monsey I'd bet he was more than a little concerned about being stuck with a sharp object. That's probably why he kept his distance.
I've been taunted on the subway before. At the time I was with my 13 year old nephew. We simply just moved to the next car. No need for filming and screaming and running in circles. When crazy people on the subway taunt you, you move away as quickly as possible. That's it.
This is overkill. And I also wouldn't call it an antisemitic incident, unless I'm allowed to call the crazy black woman taunting me (a white woman) a hate crime.
The woman who taunted me was crazy, out of control. We moved away. That's all that's required.

Not everybody is a badass like you.
The guy wasn't touched, so as others said in the video STOP recording and he'd be fine. I don't care what your background is, if you don't stand up for yourself if someone puts their hands on you then YES they will keep targeting you. I have seen grown men followed and harassed and pushed by other guys that tested the boundaries and kept at it because why not? If someone pushes you, are you going to stand there or are you going to defend yourself or at least say something? The guy just tried to act like nothing was happening and walked away with the guy following him. I just looked at him and said how about you grow a pair? This was on a subway platform too in Manhattan.

Sounds like he was moving away and the guy followed him.
The black male was referencing the victim being Jewish, so yeah, it's an anti-Semitic incident.
If the black female was taunting you for being white, it's a racial incident/hate crime.

No one has a pair anymore in NYC... HELP, he's looking at me.
