Harassed at Cordova Town Center light rail
Was waiting for the train at Cordova Town Center today. Three punks were harassing a homeless man right there on the road. Then they all came to me. The guy in front of me asked me to fight him, I said I wasn't interested, so he called me a bitch. They started faking punches at me, pulling their arms back like they were about to swing, stopping short, trying to get me to flinch or react, called me racial slurs. Mocked my accent and speech impediment. They were not at all stopping. I felt like running away. I was completely cornered by these 3 idiots. No way out. So I started recording, and they gave the camera the middle finger, kept mocking me.
Even with the recording they weren't stopping so I called the cops while it was happening and they still stood around when I was on the phone with police. Even after I got on the phone with the operator, they kept circling back toward me before finally walking off once they saw I was still on the call. Cops said there's not much that can be done after the fact, but I'm posting this because this kind of thing (going after a homeless man, then harassing a stranger's speech and accent, fake swings) isn't something to just shrug off.
At the end, I kept distance, they were gone. I took my train home safely.
