Someone Asks for Your CellPhone (Be Careful} A Punch Could be The Thanks




 

A brain lacking ignorant  homophobe borrowed a gay man’s cellphone in a Manhattan subway station — then slapped the kindhearted straphanger after seeing a background picture of the victim with his boyfriend, police said Friday.

The ugly incident happened at 2 a.m. on Nov. 15 on the D train platform of the 57th St.-7th Ave. station. The lesson here is to

The suspect asked the 22-year-old victim if he could use his phone, police said. But the suspect allegedly became enraged after seeing the photo on the phone’s screen. He called the victim a homophobic slur and slapped him, leaving the victim with a fat lip, the NYPD said.

The suspect then slammed the phone to the ground and left the station. 

The NYPD released pictures of the suspect wanted for the alleged hate crime assault.


The victim did not require medical treatment. The lesson here is to be careful when someone asks anything of you. Your cell phone, money, pen. It doesn’t mean you have to be inhuman because emergencies do occur and we have all  been in circumstances in which we were in need of a call or something else and someone helped us.

Opinion

Along with the lies about the vaccines the non vaxxers have been spreading other lies. It seems that one crazy lie goes well with another even if they have nothing to do with each other.
