Living in this city has been exhausting lately. The fatigue is real.

Not sure if there’s anything can do. The pictured individual had a meltdown at Popeyes on Centre St and started calling my friend and I the f slur and yelling at the employees saying they need to give him his food because he can’t be in the room with f-slurs. How this started was that I glanced over to look at the TV to see where my name was and he slammed his hand on the table and screamed saying I’m staring at him and that “having a boyfriend as a f-slur n-word is disgusting” (I’m white BTW) and that “he gets mad bitches.” I tried to explain that his place in line is on the TV and that was what I was looking at but he then threatened me saying he “fucking hates f slurs” and would “kick the shit out of me.”

As a gay man who was out with a platonic friend this was a first for me in the area and I’m definitely worried going out at night around here in the future.

Is this something the police can do anything about or should I just let it go? And to be clear the Popeyes employees handled this perfectly. They just told him to take any bag on the shelf and leave.
