So a woman, wearing a Puerto Rican flag shirt, is setting up for a BBQ in a park. She has an alleged permit for the area. Random old guy decides to start yelling about her attire and questioning her citizenship. Despite the fact that Puerto Rico has been US territory for 120 years and that Puerto Ricans are American citizens.
Cop is called by a bystander, as is to be expected when you've got a crazy screaming bigoted stuff at others in public.
Cop arrives and proceeds to..... wander around away from the confrontation continuing to allow the crazy to verbally harass the woman.
The guy then proceeds to repeatedly walk aggressively towards the woman and she continues to retreat calling for the cop to do something as she, rightfully, doesn't feel safe with this idiot bearing down on her.
The brother of the woman arrives and walks the crazy man back. Then the cop finally does something! He tells the brother, not the nut, to back off!
Finally other cops arrive and actually end the confrontation and takes statements and cite the crazy.
Now I get that the cop called back up as he's dealing with what appears to be a belligerent intoxicated racist asshole. But was the cop waiting for the guy to commit an assault before intervening in the situation? Why does he only speak up to warn off the brother, who I feel would have been justified in physically defending his sister from a aggressive guy walking her down as she backpedals?
Where's that itchy stun gun trigger finger when you actually need it?
