Hospital worker goes nuts on black family

[snooper2]

Found another Drumpf supporter

1. I wish there were some sort of context here.

She's screaming and being somewhat incoherent, and yet something must have precipitated her behavior. I'm not assuming the man behind the camera is at fault, but with no context, I'm simply puzzled.

[snooper2]

2. maybe she is pissed because he has a white wife/mixed family

Apparently she pushed his son out of the room...I wouldn't have been as nice as he was-

[snooper2]

3. After looking more on the googles found this for more context--

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — A North Carolina hospital has apologized after a volunteer was captured on video screaming at a visitor and his family and telling them to leave. The man says on the video that the woman also used a racial slur.

The Winston-Salem Journal reports the nearly seven-minute video was posted to YouTube by Isaiah Baskins. A telephone number for Baskins couldn’t be found Friday and the newspaper said it was unable to reach him for comment.

4. Winston-Salem? Somehow I'm not shocked...

[SheilaT]

30. In which case the heading calling her a hospital worker

should be changed.

Volunteers are supposed to have adequate training for stuff, but even if they do, they're not subject to the same oversight as an employee.

Not that her being a volunteer makes her behavior okay.

19. I think

the precipatating factor or one of them was he was wearing his pants like a lot of young people are wearing them these days, below their waist. She kept screaming about his grey undderwear, so I'm presuming that along with his interacial relationshipn and bi racial children, she just lost.

5. WTF was that?

Where was this? Tell me that crazy woman is unemployed today.

[SCantiGOP]

21. Post above says she was a volunteer

6. I hope she loses her job over her inability to be tolerant of other people.

Wow...what a freak, I feel sorry for that family. Sue the hospital for discrimination. She was very aggressive and hateful.

[snooper2]

12. found some more on this nasty woman- She has been charged with simple assault-

13. Good!

Her level of outrage over a mixed race couple is disturbing. I am so glad he had a cell phone and recorded the event, you know she would have lied her ass off without evidence.

[heaven05]

18. she must be

a Southern Baptist. They don't like interacial couples and if they have children, the same.

[Rex]

20. I would believe that, I have relatives just like her.

All are so lost in the sea of RWing propaganda, it feeds their hatred against 'others'.

[liberalhistorian]

35. Just to clarify, they weren't an interracial

couple. They hadn't met before but were sitting in the waiting room and talking, with their kids running around. This crazy ignorant bigot assumed that they were an interracial couple, which apparently touched off her meltdown. That's one of the reasons that the AA gentleman and the white lady were so shocked, she just went nuts like that while they were talking.

We have to remember that it's really not that long ago that segregation and discrimination was legal, institutionalized and enforced in that state; hell, likely within the lifetimes of a great many of us posting on this site. This crazy bigot looks like she was probably a teenager or young adult at that time, which means she grew up encased in white privilege and being able to treat minorities any way she wanted and use the language of casual racial bigotry so common then. The advent of Drumpf has allowed her and her ilk to feel as if they can finally get back to their "true" natures and reinstate the "true" order of things. This is the kind of shit we are up against and why we need to be ever-vigilant and aware and push back against it at every opportunity. I'm white and already exhausted by it and dealing with these idiots, I can only imagine how non-whites must feel and endure from these fuckers every single day, with no real break.

26. This was in May. I wonder what the outcome was.

7. Some context.

http://www.journalnow.com/news/local/disturbing-confrontation-with-volunteer-at-wake-forest-baptist-posted-on/article_3d47de0b-6de1-5b5f-be4e-b09547e4b5a4.html

A disturbing encounter between a female volunteer at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and a man and his two children has been posted on YouTube, prompting an apology from the hospital.

The nearly 7-minute video set near the hospital’s family resources center was uploaded Thursday by Isaiah Baskins. It appears to have been shot with a phone or tablet. The video had been viewed more than 20,000 times late Friday.

Baskins could not be reached for comment Friday to provide additional context of the encounter. In the video, he claimed he and his children were victims of racism, including being called the “n-word” before he began recording.

Baskins said in the posting his daughter had an appointment at the hospital.

Early Friday afternoon, Wake Forest Baptist officials posted an apology to Baskins in the comment section of the video post on YouTube.

“We deeply regret and apologize for this behavior demonstrated by our volunteer in this video,” the post read. “We are dedicated to providing an inclusive environment for all, with respect, dignity and compassion. We are taking action, and this individual is no longer a volunteer with our organization.

“If they haven’t already, one of our senior executives should be reaching out to you shortly. Again, we apologize for this appalling incident.”

15. Classy apology by the hospital. Thanks for posting. . . nt

[LuckyLib]

25. The community, black and white, needs to "vote with their feet" -- leaving this

clinic/hospital/whatever with empty waiting rooms, and no one to serve. Take yourselves elsewhere where people are treated with dignity. There is no way that other employees didn't know this woman was bat-shit crazy but she was allowed to "volunteer" anyway. Nope. Medical office needs to feel it where it hurts. The pocketbook.

[BarbaRosa]

8. Boy, I'll bet she is a joy to live with.

(if needed)

[jpak]

9. Yikes!!!!1

That's some fucked up shit...

[trumad]

10. Damn she scared the shit out of me.

[byronius]

23. Truly, that shriek was astonishing.

'Sybil' level crazy.

[eissa]

11. I got stressed just watching that

I can't imagine experiencing that level of intense hatred up close. Wow.

[Warren DeMontague]

14. The dude filming deserves a medal for his patience.

[heaven05]

16. the face of evil

currently depicting the racial climate in america. That woman was disgusting. That family was very tolerant of her.

[kairos12]

17. I thought this was a trailer for some new exorcist movie. I thought her her would spin around.

[byronius]

22. That is one Lost Cause.

Terminal case of Racist Rage.

[Hoppy]

24. Her assault trial was in May. What was the result?

[Red Mountain]

31. Looks like Friday is her day in court

27. "There's something wrong with that woman"

Indeed, captain understatement, indeed.

[JustAnotherGen]

28. She's nucking futs!

[TeeYiYi]

29. I wonder how many years...

...it's going to take for the older generation of ignorant white racists, who don't understand how social media works, to die off?

There will always be younger generations of bigots to take their place, but I imagine the proliferation of cell phone video showing white supremacist seniors spewing racist vomit on youtube will diminish... I hope.

TYY

[Red Mountain]

32. The guy is a saint

I have a lot of respect for how he conducted himself.

[PersonNumber503602]

34. That lady appears to have some serious issues.

I'm not sure they handled her the best way. I've had my share of dealings with highly irrational people, and I found that continue interactions never help the situation.

36. Man that endured racial attack by hospital volunteer details the incident in extensive interview

[smirkymonkey]

37. God, she's evil! She reminds me of Miss Crabtree, the bus driver from South Park
