Unhinged man shouts racist & anti-gay slurs at restaurant as police refuse to intervene

A white man was caught on video shouting anti-gay and racist slurs in front of a restaurant in South Dakota as police refused to intervene.

Multiple people called police to report a man this past Monday who was shouting in front of the Carpenter Bar in downtown Sioux Falls, but a police spokesperson said he had a “free speech” right to shout the n-word and “fa***t” at the crowd.

The man appears to have been doused with water before the start of the video that was posted to Facebook by Sioux Falls resident Andrea Lynn, although it’s unclear if he started his rant before or after he got wet.

“Sorry for the horrible language but this happening in Sioux Falls right now,” Lynn wrote in the caption for the video. “Driving by calling everyone outside fa****s and n*****s. Got a bucket of water thrown on him and said he was assaulted. Let’s do better SF.”
