re: Utah women's basketball team hotel woes

I usually assume these types of stories are fake because many of them are proven so.

But this one sounds plausible. That some idiot can yell that and then drive off is different than a student yelling it at a player on the court and no one around them in that section responds.

So while I think this could have happened, isn’t this the proper response?

Some idiot you have never seen before and will never see again yelled a vulgar word at you and was gone. Can’t we just keep moving forward with our lives?

I was in a Wash, DC subway with a large group of people when a black teenager yelled “cracker” and threw the rest of a soft drink in our direction as we walked down the steps. The drink didn’t hit anyone nor splash drink on anyone. We just kept walking and I have never seen that person again nor will I ever. Do I remember the incident, sure. Am I paralyzed with shock, hardly.
