WATCH: Raging Texas man abuses and threatens Arab store employee -- then gets his comeuppance

Texas man brags about "killing Arabs" while being recorded by a bystander and is later confronted by the police (images via screengrab).


A Texas man was reportedly arrested and charged after shouting anti-Arab abuse at a DirecTV employee — all while being filmed by a bystander.

In the video posted by Twitter user @mohamburger, the man appears to get upset when he learned that the employee is named Mohammed.

“Godd*mn f*cking Arabs,” the man said while walking away from the desk in a huff.

The woman filming begins to try to speak to him, to which he counters that he “really doesn’t give a f*ck what some b*tch has to say.”

Wouldn't be surprised. Though, probably not for 20 years. I suspect he would have washed out well before then.

That would make it kind of hard for him to be "killing arabs" on "five continents" for the past twenty years.

Maybe he meant he's been incontinent for twenty years.

Joey Derek Christian.

Joey Derek Christian is a Texas man who was arrested after he went on a racist, anti-Arab against a Muslim AT&T store employee in Friendswood that was caught on video. The 38-year-old with a felony criminal record was taken into custody by the Friendswood Police Department after the April 16 incident at the phone store.

The video of Christian’s angry outburst was recorded by a woman who was shopping at the store and shared on social media by Mo, the employee who was the target of Christian’s vile attack. The footage has garnered hundreds of thousands of views after going viral on Twitter and Facebook. Christian could not immediately be reached for comment by Heavy and appears to have deleted his Facebook and other social media profiles in the wake of the video being posted online.

The Friendswood Police Department also did not immediately return a request for comment about the incident. But online records on the department’s website show that Christian was arrested at the West Parkwood AT&T store on April 16 just after 7 p.m. Christian is a resident of Pasedena, Texas, according to police records. Friendswood is a city of about 35,000 near Houston.

"A series of tubes" is a phrase coined originally as an analogy by then-United States Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) to describe the Internet, from Wikipedia.

Too bad many Americans did not take her seriously about the danger they posed. On the other hand she had been dealing with them for years and knew what she was talking about! Hind sight is always 20-20 I guess.

...People who actually have killed a lot of people overseas never talk about it. Let along brag about it. I'm willing to bet this guy may have never even won a fist fight. I certainly like my chances against him.

In Top Secret, clandestine, hush-hush operations and then say: "I can't talk about it."

Anyone genuinely involved in Black Ops or whatever won't even bring it up in the first place.

To the poseurs, I just want to say: "dude, you weren't that important! Even the guy who capped Osama Bin Laden wrote a book about it."

I served on Battalion Ops for a year when I was in the Army. I had to have a Secret clearance for it. The only things I ever saw were maps. No sensitive documents, no national secrets, nothing.

More and more I encounter great stories like this one and I click on the link only to find out it is behind a paywall. I understand that, but I can't subscribe to every magazine that gets a story quoted here on DU from some magazine.

It's discouraging...
