Homophobic Guy Gets Dragged After Throwing Epic Tantrum Over Pride Crosswalk In Viral Video

Homophobic Guy Gets Dragged After Throwing Epic Tantrum Over Pride Crosswalk In Viral Video
Goetzilla22/Reddit

A crosswalk painting in celebration of LGBTQ+ Pride in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada was nearly ruined when a man wearing a cowboy hat attempted to interrupt the drying process by letting traffic run through.

A video of the incident, posted to the PublicFreakout subReddit, showed the man forcefully pulling a wooden traffic barrier apart before being confronted by the volunteers who had worked on the crosswalk.


You can see the video here:

After he loudly told people "they don't own this f'king property," the man was informed the city does and the people painting acquired a permit.

Given his first argument got him nowhere, the man shifted gears and offered some unsolicited, more general commentary.

"You know what? You guys are getting absolutely stupid."

He then attempted to move the barriers again, but was stopped.

When he noticed he was being filmed, he looked directly into the camera and called the group "a bunch of a**holes."

The video closed with a separate clip of the man's later interaction with a police officer.

According to a report from the Saskatoon Police Service, the man was arrested and charged with causing a disturbance. He's due in court in late November.

Redditors who viewed the video couldn't believe the man's behavior.

"I'm not saying you have to fully support everyone you meet but it's not hard to not be a f'king a**hole whenever you see something that doesn't affect you at all" -- Thicc_Nekk

"I wonder if he rages at rainbows in the sky after a nice rain." -- Endless__Soul

"No Country For Old Men" -- Tekmologyfucz

"Totally no deep-seated issues in that psyche. Nope. Very well adjusted normal person behavior" -- wubbstepp

"It made me laugh when one of them said 'no thank you' in the beginning to his behavior."

"Literally something I say to my preschool students when they do something that they're not supposed to." -- XiaoWonton

"Why are people so thin-skinned and sensitive?"

"The colour of the sidewalk doesn't affect your life at all, just keep walking smh" -- espaguetisbrazos

Thankfully, the man wasn't able to ruin the drying process.

Despite his efforts, Saskatoon residents and visitors will have a new rainbow crosswalk to enjoy.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
