'Unhinged Racist' Berates Passengers Riding On Bus

A New York woman was captured on video screaming and yelling at a bus driver and passengers, using racial slurs including the n-word, on a local bus in Rockland County. The shocking incident was recorded by multiple passengers.
In one video, uploaded to Facebook by Zoe Mac, the woman was seen rhetorically asking minority passengers if they "got papers to be in this country?" When one passenger tries to intervene she tells him to shut up before continuing her expletive-filled rant.
When she realizes that Mac is filming she walks over and slaps his camera away.
Someone else on the bus then asks an unidentified person to “grab your mother, that is your mother, please grab her.” The man then takes the woman and pulls her back to her seat in an attempt to calm her down.
Eventually, police arrived and took the woman off the bus in handcuffs. Orangetown Supervisor Chris Day said that the woman was charged with violations for her actions, but because her crimes were only violations and not misdemeanors, her identity would not be revealed. Even though her name will not be released, Day pointed out that "her behavior is forever enshrined on the internet among the great idiots of our time."
Yesterday some unhinged racist went on a mini-rampage of sorts on a Transport of Rockland bus as it was passing through Orangetown, creating a disturbance by physically and verbally attacking passengers and the bus driver. I want to commend our Orangetown Police Department, who were called to the bus and arrested the woman in question, and the other passengers on the bus for how they handled the situation.
Though her name is not being released due to her being charged with violations, as opposed to misdemeanors or above, her behavior is forever enshrined on the internet among the great idiots of our time, and I hope she learns a lesson in appropriate behavior and tolerance from the experience as she is recognized on the street as "crazy racist lady from the bus" for the next several years of her life.
According to the Mount Pleasant Daily Voice, police were also called to deal with a similar incident involving the same woman earlier in the day.
