US Postal worker films woman on racist rant

    Follow link for video

    Things got ugly when a black mail carrier refused to take back a letter he'd delivered to a lady in Hingham, Mass. She went on a racist rant and slapped him. He secretly taped it all on his cell phone.

    The argument in the video is sparked by a certified letter that the mail carrier delivers. The woman has signed for it, but decides she doesn't want it because it's addressed to her husband, not her. But the mail guy won't take it back. Things go sour when she calls him a "****ing n*gger thief." She quickly qualifies: "I'm not prejudiced but right now I'm getting real pissed off." Then everything she says afterward is so racist it would make George Wallace blush. Finally she slaps him. Just your normal day on the mail route. Except really, really racist


    This woman has to be one of the more ignorant people ive seen in my life. That guy had some restraint, not sure I would have done the same.

    Since when did Helen Mirren have an American accent?

    Hahaha...I couldn't watch it all....too cringeworthy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    That woman seems mentally unbalanced.

    Why the hell does she not want the letter?

    Her behaviour is disgraceful but it looks to me like the postie knew she was a crazy b!tch & set this up to happen.
    Why was he filming?
    Why did he hang around after she verbally & physically abused him?
    Why didn't he roll up the window & drive off?

    Hmmmm..... I didn't get that from the video at all. :)



    Seriously though - it's for her husband. Can't she just give it to her when she sees him.

    Jeez lady, no need to go into a big racist conspiracy rant you mentalist.

    Why do people continue to get their knickers in a twist when they see things like this when they know it happens everyday?

    Doesn't make it right but it's by no means a one off.

    Way to miss the point! Wouldn't you think that the guy might have had good reason to document any interaction he had with the woman?
    The video was uploaded in two parts on October 11th by youtube user hugsonamic, who purports to be the mail guy and claims he was fired over the incident:

    This woman is outrageous — I am still waiting for US Postal Inspection Service to investigate this matter. it has been a year since postmaster fired me for this racist lady, and Hingham court let her go free, no trial.

    He promises "More videos are yet to come." But these two might be enough. It's already been picked up by a handful of blogs, and dozens of Youtube comments are calling for blood, including one that reads, ominously: "4CHAN FIND HER!!"

    My guess: This story won't get half the media attention that the woman putting a cat in a bin got.

    OK so:

    1) It says he got fired over this ? wtf ?!?!?!?
    2) the court let her go free no trial ?!!?!?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46,938 ✭✭✭✭Nodin


    "I'm not prejudiced..." sez she

    "but why are you calling me names ma'am" sez he

    "because you're acting like a nigger" sez she

    (from about 55 seconds in)

    NOVEMBER 12--The Massachusetts woman seen delivering a racist rant on a viral YouTube video once threatened a cop that she would “chop off” his genitals after he arrested her for trespassing at a community theater rehearsal where she warned cast members they would “get it with a machine gun.”

    Maybe when she stormed out to his van, he knew he was going to get abuse?

    He's probably doing the job long enough to recognise the signs.

    Edit: BTW what an ignorant cùnt she is.

    He might have stuck around because this has happened him before , maybe was sick of being abused by this woman but had no proof, he was dead right imo to video tape it. I wonder what punishment she got?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,007 ✭✭✭sollar


    Seems like a set up he knew what she was like and set her up. He's a prick and she's a crazy racist.

    1) It's not necessarily true that he "set her up".

    2) Even if he did, fair play to him for exposing this psycho b!tch. Best case she will get help, worst case we will know to cross to the oither side of the street if we ever see her.

    And that folks is why blackmail is a criminal offence.

    He should have shoved the letter up her ass.

    most likely yes and I know two wrongs don't make a right but for this to be a set up it must have happened before, so i feel he's justified in doing so. Is that worse than suffering severe racial abuse through no fault of your own


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 734 ✭✭✭battries not included


    She is not Racist...


    Some of her best friends are postal workers

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,183 ✭✭✭dvpower


    Why didn't he just take the letter back?
    ******* Public Servants - I just do deliveries, not pickups

    Why does it make him a prick that he protected himself?

    When if she claimed he kicked the crap out of her?

    She already signed for it, probably electonicly and their probably isn't a system in place to undo that so the gig didn't know how to deal with it.

    F*****G delivery men, not moving my items to my garage 20ft away. :mad:

    If the right people don't get their knickers in a twist whey they see things like this then it will continue to happen everyday. :(

    It does go black before the slap.

    What must he have said to her there?! I didn't see no slap (though she does admit to it). Hmmm... This is either a poorly edited video and he gave her a load of abuse, ir they're the best of friends winding people on the internet up together.

    It's more to do with being reliant on technology and then nit knowing what to do when the system can't deal with a situation.
