Iranian neuroscientist and his girlfriend are abused on New York subway by man who said 'Trump is in the house'
A Neuroscientist from Iran, Masih Rahmati and his girlfriend Mahsa Mehrdad suffered abuse at the hands of a man who racially abused them and yelled death threats saying 'Trump is in the house'. Ms Mehrdad filmed the latter part of the exchange and posted the shocking video on Facebook. During the tirade, the man said:
'Go back to your own country', 'Donald Trump is in the house' and 'I'll kill all three of you at one time'. Ms Mehdrad posted an account of the shocking encounter on Facebook along with the video.
She wrote:
'We noticed him getting on the train at 42nd St because he was looking at us hatefully and grumbling something under his breath.
'When the train got less crowded at 59th St, he started cursing loudly the whole way till 125th St. I only captured the last minute but he said several times that he would kill us right then and there because we were terrorists.
'We tried to stay calm and ignore him. The whole experience was sad and shocking and brought a question to my mind.
'What should we do in a situation like this? Should we remain silent or should we do something? What is a proper action to shut down racist comments while not escalating the situation?'
Local media reports that the couple were going to make a formal report to the police but were advised the man was unlikely to face prosecution because he looked mentally unstable.
Keep the hate coming madam Lynda, but know that Trump beat your racist kilary klinton on the race to the Whitehouse. Iran is 100% a terrorist country so even if he is an astronaut it doesn't change where he comes from.#POTUS TRUMP
Oh please! it's about time they experienced racism first hand. Their fellow Arabs treat Africans like subhumans, we've all seen the video of the dark Ethiopian woman that was screaming for help while her employer was recording her hanging from a seven storey building and watched her fall. There's the video of the one who was burnt by her employer, and these are the ones that made the social airwaves. Imagine what happens behind closed door; then they'd start crying racism and want to benefit from the racial awareness created by black people who have endured it for decades. Rubbish.
not fair!
