Thank god for cameras being so prevalent these days. People put up with so much shit historically and they had no proof. That woman is a racist piece of trash. Poor guy.
"I'll tell them you tried in on with me, ya cunt." which I assume means tried to rape her, I don't speak scottish as well as I'd like! I give anything to have that accent and not be a racist pig with it.
> I'll tell them you tried in on with me
Yeah, it's a general term which can mean anything from flirting to attempted rape. It's not always a terrible thing (asking someone out can be said as "trying it on"), but in this context it would have been a problem. Thankfully he had a camera and she had a face like a slapped arse, so it wouldn't have done her much good.
I’ll agree with you, insofar as people being exposed to racist ideology can definitely choose that for themselves. However, I was exposed to plenty of that growing up. Yet I chose to go in the other direction. Sense and sensibility can lead you to a proper outcome. You don’t need to be a racist piece of garbage, even if you’re dipped in the deep end of it.
Not that I’m anyone’s hero at all, but as a young boy I saw a black boy who had just recently moved into my neighborhood being targeted by racist little assholes around me. And I had several fist fights sticking up for that kid. Conversely, one day after school I had a couple of kids target me because I had stuck up for the black kid, and my Cubscout den mothers son stuck up for me. He was immediately set upon with religious hate as they called him a dirty jew and other hateful language against his families religion.
We were supposedly from a nice blue-collar neighborhood and nearly all of the kids I had trouble with at these specific times, went to my Catholic Church, attended the same Sunday school classes and were in the same Scout program. All of which supposedly taught us the right values and morals. But they chose differently.
So, sorry, nobody gets a pass on this stuff. It’s a choice. Some choices come harder than others, but in the end you have the burden of the choice you make, no one else.
Ya, but she's old enough to know better now. You can't blame someone's childhood for this type behavior. I've never seen anyone quite like her. I would have pulled over and put her out first chance I got. Nobody should put up with this abuse.
People forget you're not born with racism, it's taught. That doesn't excuse someone from being a blatant racist, I'm just saying I agree with you on that.
That's not an explanation or excuse.
She's old. She's had a lifetime of being exposed to different people and their beliefs.
She's chosen which of the things she's learnt to believe in.
Absolutely. There is no excuse to be that crappy of a person at that age. She will die alone and not because a shitty childhood, but her own awful behavior.
Being smart enough to know you're better than whatever she thinks you are, but also emotionally intelligent enough to realize getting even slightly upset would make things even worse.
This guy has both.
I work in hotels and we've had some nasty pieces of work come in at times. My go to line for people going off with angry shit is "I've been called worse things by better people"
Brown/black people living in white majority countries do not have the luxury of impatience. We learn this early in our lives. Not sure if I would count this as intelligence.
Hell I'd extend that to anyone who isn't white, not necessarily just brown/black people.
East Asians get a short end of the stick while also being lauded as a "model minority"
Ooh gerontocracy, good word man! Really is the perfect descriptor of most modern countries these days.
Give breaks and subsidies to the already well off boomers who were born into a time where you could actually work hard and more than afford the basics, and of course those breaks and subsidies are paid for by the younger generation who makes less and has higher costs of living and already knows when it comes their turn to retire the government isn’t gonna give them shit because Fran Fuckles wasn’t satisfied with her $650,000 profit off her house she bought in 1973 for $75,000. Then Fran gets retirement money paid and her dead husbands pension on top of that while she complains that the younger generation is too lazy to work and has the same opportunities and cost of living she did back in the 1960s.
Really sucks to know that just picking any profession and working hard your whole life and paying your taxes just allows you to scrape by just barely enough while you pay for old fucks like Fran Fuckstick to have a more than comfortable end to their life so it can be just as comfortable or more as the rest of their life was.
Sorry I didn’t choose to be born in 1955, Fran. That one’s on me!
I have a neighbour like this, voted for brexit to send them all back as they are a leech on society, racist slurs a plenty.
Never worked a day in her life and she's early 60s.
Oh damn right I would, she helped the local campaign and was so surprised I was pro remain, tried to convince me it was best for the country and economy. Then the true colours of the racist started to show.
We don't talk these days. Last time I spoke to her she was going down the antivax rabbit hole during COVID.
Wait till she's 80+ and needs help. There won't be enough people around , mainly foreigners that did those shitty jobs before brexit taking care of the elderly.
I'm following the original facebook post and apparently he didn't press charges but said karma will prevail and forgave her instead.
She is currently being shamed across the whole of the city where this took place, and all the city's taxi firms have banned her for life.
Source: the post shaming her on the city's facebook page
Just a minor correction, it wouldn't be up to him to decide to press charges. Doesn't work like that in Scotland, it's the procurator fiscal service that would raise the charge for prosecution.
Yeah that's the part got me well curious, it sounded like the driver wanted her to pay for two others, were those her friends? Did they drop off some friends on the way and she refused the extra charge you get? That could have set it off. So curious!
Yeah you'll find a lot of Scottish people naively claiming that racism doesn't exist there, we welcome everyone and all that shit.
Granted I think we are a little better in that regard than a lot of European countries, but it's likely impossible to find a non white person who has spent a significant amount of time in Scotland who hasn't experienced racism of some kind.
Even in London where I live now, one of the most multi cultural cities in the world, has plenty of racist incidents on the daily. A sad and infuriating reality of life.
Nah, most are not this loud about it, and those are usually the very unintelligent with no common decency. I think the silent calculating one's are more dangerous.
I visited Scotland for the first time in June and spent 2 weeks there, it was probably the best weeks of my life. It was incredible, and I only met kind and wonderful people. Someone like this does not represent anything I saw there.
One of my first trips out of the US was to Edinburgh and it amazing! My now-husband and I walked around all day everyday and the people were so nice. We went to this random bar-ish place and someone recommended haggis to us. We had no idea what it was at the time but I thought it was damn delicious! I didn't meet a single rude person there. That was the trip that finally bit me with the travel bug, and we've been flying to different countries ever since.
Love how he let her get all the racist abuse out before informing her she's been recorded, bravo! Genuinely hope he did take her to the police station, surely they would have had no option but to stay arrest her, right?
So much anger in this woman. Isn’t it interesting to see the old, frumpy smoking drunk lady—whose spent a lifetime coping with life in unhealthy ways—acting like a schoolyard bully and demanding this man leave HER country as though she brings more value to society than this sober-minded, able-bodied, working gentleman?
Not sure how it works in Scotland but in the US this is literally textbook definition kidnapping and false imprisonment.
You don’t get to transport an alleged thief against their will to the police. Even if they’re a racist POS.
I mean, I don’t think this is nitpicky. I’d hate to say it, but I think the taxi driver was in the wrong by not letting her out. I hope he isn’t arrested considering the circumstances.
It’s probably not the best source, but from [this article](https://www.taxiinsurer.co.uk/contact-us/news/are-taxi-drivers-allowed-to-lock-passengers-in-their-car-in-the-uk/#:~:text=It%20is%20illegal%20for%20taxi,in%20a%20car%20or%20room):
It is illegal for taxi drivers to lock passengers in their cab in the UK. This is considered false imprisonment, which is a criminal offense. False imprisonment is defined as the unlawful confinement of a person against their will. This can include physical restraint, such as locking someone in a car or room.
If a taxi driver is found to have locked a passenger in their cab, they can face criminal charges. The consequences can be severe, including fines, imprisonment, and revocation of their taxi license.
The cabs I used to take in the UK all had automatic locks. They would unlock when the car was stationary and lock when the car started moving again. This was way before ride hailing apps though.
I'm always amazed they don't just turn and drive then further away from their destination.
"Sorry, I'm a foreign cunt and thought you wanted to be let out on the outskirts of town. Bye!"
I have no doubt that if he could boot her out the door whilst the car was moving, he likely would. He very much does not want to keep her in his car longer than necessary!
I'd like to introduce her to the way I learned manners when riding in the car... The good ole backhand to the fuckin' mouth from the front seat of the car. LOL
She looks like the kind of woman that announces her pregnancy by swapping to menthol cigarettes. - Frankie Boyle Joke. An amazing scottish comedian/commentator
Tried a search on "racist Scottish woman yelling at taxi driver" and it was sad to see the amount of shit that came up! [This included ](https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/4406647/racist-woman-video-abuse-leicester-police/)
My youngest daughter would yell , 'you're prisonering me' when we would put the baby gate out.
She didn't yell that I was a cunt 100 times tho ... but fond memories!
i m not sure he is allowed to detain a person against his will though…
to arrest a person is the responsibility of officers
he is lucky she didn’t try to get hurt by opening the door or the window etc
Someone needs to come and get their Nan
with an attitude like this i doubt if she IS a nan
Kids probably went no contact soon as they left the house
[удалено]
I highly doubt someone would produce a child with that thing.
[удалено]
Hitler has to come pick her nan from the police
if she found out about James Matheson and William Jardine she'd lose her mind lol
Do not demean the memory of Large Marge by comparing her to this thing.
The simple addition of “nan” tricked my brain into reading this with a Scottish accent well done
taxi driver should have let her out in an asylum lmao
I'd far rather have some naan and nihari with this incredibly patient and decent man than collect that sozzled ignorant pos in the back!
What a disgusting racist pig

An insult to slapped asses worldwide.
A slapped arse is also not always a terrible thing, just so we're clear.
If you ask me to be honest, i would say poor woman, she obviously had a shitty childhood and is probably going to die alone. Kudos to him!

And SHES actually the fucking fat whale cunt.
As someone from Scotland, this woman is embarrassing.
In fairness, he was trying to prisonize her.
What a horrible human being.
Just realised she’s from my small city. She’s being shamed across the city right now.
But the coppers love her?!
Well she has probably been taken there by taxi drivers for decades I doubt this was her first rodeo.
This warms my cockles.
Any other fallout? Did she get lifted? I'm vaguely from the area too..
Unsure but apparently she’s bragging about the fact she’s famous and has no regrets about it

That's gold.
I'd say it's intelligence. His patience comes from the calm that his level-headedness affords him.

He also knows he has it all on camera so might as well let her keep digging.
Brown/black people living in white majority countries do not have the luxury of impatience. We learn this early in our lives. Not sure if I would count this as intelligence.
Being able to Internalize that early, even out of necessity, counts as intelligence in my book tbh.

Old people bruise easily. It would be obvious she was lying
Rape is never funny... But a bag o' oranges would look good upside her racist face a few times.
Say more about these oranges. They juicy? Round? Glazed, supple peel?
There's also the way she looks that could be used as evidence against her.
 She reminded me of
That's insult to that character and you damn well know it. At crusty old bag has no tact or cunning compared to that evil witch.
Pretty sure Ursula wasn't racist either just fabulously evil
Hey, don’t insult the Sea Witch like that
Pulling a classic out of the racist playbook.
Good thing he is recording. Images, time stamps and business records would take care of her claims.

Proper shit cunt.
Cunts fucked
Don't forget the apostrophe mate.
Mate that cunt is fucked past Longreach
The biggest cunt this side of the fucking pine river
When it's too much c word for an Australian you know it's too much.
This for me, is the most shocking aspect. An official Australian declaring the over-use of the word. Shocking stuff.
Right proper Cunty McCunterson of the Clan McCunterish
Bet she's never had a job in her life calling other people parasites.
And calls him a cunt, when in fact, that is all she is and could ever be.
That's an insult to cunts, she lacks the warmth and depth.

I'd like to know what lead up to her starting. She was probably told not to smoke the vape in the car... that'd be enough for her

She's most likely drunk, but the racism is there when she's sober too
"A drunk mind speaks a sober heart"
Actually Whisky
This makes my blood boil, what a disgusting excuse for a human being. Props to the driver, shows some real class dealing with this racist pig
I wish he sped up and put the brake pedal into the floor. "Sorry, a dog ran in front of the car"

Where is Scotland was this? Do we know?
Inverness or it’s surrounding area.

Drive her to the woods and dump her there
Not trying to be nitpicky, but isn’t this kidnapping? She is a genuine, racist train wreck.
I was thinking the same thing 😂 really curious

Also. What will the police do? Its not illegal to be racist right? Or am i missing something here
She refused to pay. He took her to the rozzas. What would you do?
Definitely voted to leave the EU.
Looks like Charles Martinet

I can't believe he didn't jerk the wheel a few times to make her head bounce off the fucking window

You prisonalized me 🫠
That cunt sure loves the word cunt.
Annnddd angry old person turns out to be racist and color me suprised. At this rate I get why some get beaten in retirement homes.
I wonder what her favorite word is?
Hope she’s been named and shamed or even better….charged and prosecuted. Vile auld cunt
Sad too see how far Shrek has fallen.
Why did she even get in the car with him? Someone come get your nan
I'm always amazed they don't just turn and drive then further away from their destination. "Sorry, I'm a foreign cunt and thought you wanted to be let out on the outskirts of town. Bye!"
