An unmasked straphanger berated an older woman on a Q train in an apparent dispute over his lack of a face covering, according to video.

Masks are required on public transit by federal law. In New York, refusing to mask-up on MTA trains and buses is a $50 violation.

The man replies with a mocking squeal as he leans over the lady, “I’m so afraid.”

The man was maskless despite the law requiring all MTA passengers to wear masks while riding.

The woman replies, “Please get away from me, sir.”

This spurs her adversary to chant, “1776!” for the year America was founded.

“Respect your elders!” she fires back, to which he replies, “I respect freedom!”

MTA Acting Chairman Janno Lieber on Monday called the man “completely out of line.

“This is outrageous. No. 1, the guy is a jerk. Every New Yorker who gets on the subway knows one of the first principles is you treat other people respectfully,” Lieber said when asked about the video during an unrelated press conference in The Bronx.

“This is an incredible, egregious violation of basic human respect,” he said.

1. These asshats are taking the word "freedom" a bit too far...

2. Looks like very few wearing masks

I especially always wonder why the guy in purple shirt across from the action, bothers wearing a mask at all when it’s just around the neck.

I never understood why anybody cares if a person wears a mask. Such a strange thing to get upset about.

5. Fire his woman and science hating ass.

I hope he gets reported and fired from whatever job he has

6. Notice how he chooses to go after an older woman. "Who is the person

least likely to give me the beat-down I fully deserve for getting in their face?"

7. And we are supposed to believe that assholes like this guy

give a damn about Afghanistan when they don't even give a damn about other Americans?

8. Given the way that jerk is standing, I know what my response would have been.

Such a handy target,

9. Exactly what I thought when I saw that. nt

I'd like to see a few of the people just sitting and watching this to stand up en mass and tell these assholes off.
