So on saturday I was on the 10:48pm go train to kitchener from union, coming back from watching the air show. Between around 10:40 to 10:48 a person walking by me in the train car wearing a grey sweater (maybe with a small red logo on the back of it) and black pants spat on me, i took a second to realize what even happened, i said some expletives and got up to yell at the person but they never stopped walking away and i only saw their back. I had some valuables and there were people between me and them at that point so i had to just let it go. But that fucking sucked.
Keep an eye out and if you have seen this person/see a person in the future doing something like this press the yellow strip and at least confront them enough to get a good look at them then call/notify the police/Go authorities. I was just taken aback and only texted the help line but that wouldn't help with actually catching someone like this.
In hindsight this was probably a hate crime, I was the only east asian looking person on the train and it doesn't seem like they spat on anyone else. This spitting thing seems to be a thing that happens to minorities in and around toronto. Not sure where this guy went or which station he got off at.
This isnt the first time i've had to deal with these kinds of insane people and I'm getting fucking sick of it. I keep thinking i should have ran up to them to beat their ass but the police i just talked to told me i did everything i really should have done. It still fucking sucks
