In reply to the discussion: Racially charged confrontation at Reno airport captured on video [View all]BamaRefugee
(3,712 posts)59. the point in continuing to record it is
Hector has NO IDEA what Mike is gonna do next, does he have a gun? Mike has already assaulted Hector several times, beginning with throwing his sandwich at him right at the top of the video, then with crutches, then ramming his wheelchair into Hector...He has every right to keep recording for potential evidence of criminal behavior.

We don't know what started it because Hector chose not to produce that or tape it.

From this video, it looks like the Spanish speaker is the one harassing a guy in a wheelchair
