https://www.theroot.com/ore-man-who-followed-black-muslim-couple-for-20-block-1796882773Sorrell is accused of driving next to the couple for more than 20 blocks (seriously, that shit is frightening) and attempting to hit their vehicle several times while shouting, Take off the fucking burka, this is America; go back to your fucking country, and mimicking firing a handgun, according to the Oregon Committee of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Unsurprisingly, Sorrell, who made bail, pleaded not guilty in court Monday and quickly burst into delicious crocodile tears, claiming that he never meant any harm. He insisted that he was waving his hand and pointing his finger, not making a gun gesture.
I never tried to run into them. I was just going to work. I never tried to follow them. I never tried to make contact with them after the fact, Sorrell said while ugly-crying.
...
The judge ordered him not to go on Facebook anymore, where he also accused of making several discriminatory comments. Sorrell is due back in court in August.

What has the world come to when you can't even follow a stranger for 20 blocks shouting abuse at him.
