Live and Let Live – what a simple concept.

The victim of this hatred, 22 yr. old Chrissy Lee Polls

What provokes someone to lash out in violent hatred at another person just because they are different?

An incident in a Maryland McDonald’s reminds us of the simmering nastiness that lurks in people’s hearts.

As reported in the Huntington Post:

A transgender woman whose brutal attack at a McDonald’s restaurant in Maryland was captured on video that later went viral said Saturday she was the victim of a hate crime.
Twenty-two-year-old Chrissy Lee Polis told The Baltimore Sun that since the attack last Monday, “I’m just afraid to go outside now because of stuff like this.”
The video posted online shows a woman being attacked and apparently having a seizure. Baltimore County police say a 14-year-old girl has been charged as a juvenile and an 18-year-old woman faces an assault charge in the case.
Polis told the newspaper that after she used the restroom, “They said, ‘That’s a dude, that’s a dude and she’s in the female bathroom.'”
“They just seemed like they wanted to pick a fight that night,” Polis said.

It was caught on video by an onlooker – itself an act of cowardly by-standing, which has fortunately turned into a helpful instructive tool through the power of the internet.

Please do go to youtube and read the comments on this video.  They are more disturbing that the video itself.  For the lazy among you, I reproduce several below:

I am sad to say that the retorts to these people aren’t much more evolved:

• Black people the most racist people on earth….if these were white females beating a black female, all hell would broken loose. The fact that no one stopped it because all were apes. Male apes were happy that female apes are beating a helpless person. Black woman sorry, you are ugly, have horrid hair and no one wants you, doesn’t mean you got to beat up people. Same goes for black men, if you act normal like everyone else, you won’t be treated differently. You act like monkeys so people treat uMrChutzpah2002 1 hour agoReply

If not, I’ll never buy from them again.I’m atheist and I have completely superior morality to any of the fucks standing around there. I would have knifed both of those cunts, and the law would be on my side.Sincerely, a straight dude.JMYock 6 days ago
