    Default Loud cell-phone talker removed from quiet car by police

    Loud cell-phone talker removed from quiet car by police

    A woman who was escorted off an Amtrak train by police this weekend after she allegedly refused to stop talking loudly on her cell-phone has the Internet cheering her fate.

    Civilians and quiet-car champions are supporting her ejection for violating policy at high volume during the 16-hour journey. It doesn't help her cause that she became belligerent when confronted about it by one of her fellow passengers.


    KOMO News reports that Lakeysha Beard says she felt "disrespected" by the incident, though passengers said it was Beard who was being rude by refusing to stop yapping while sitting in one of the train's designated quiet cars.

    16 Hours? Where can I get her battery?
    I'm looking for an entry below $EMW's 669, but I'll take whatever the market is willing to give.

    Look at her. An ignorant minority at risk patron - I wonder how many illegitimate children she has that are paying for that cell phone.

    Seriously? You can't kick someone off a train for using what God gave them. 16 hours? That must be one heck of a set of lungs.

    And to assume she needs welfare to feed her kids is disengenious, I doubt she had much trouble with that.

    It was probably just racism.

    Friends in case you've been in the dark - illegitimacy is the quickest way to welfare payments. That's why over 72% of black kids born in this country are illegitimate - it's intentional fraud on the rest of us.
