Sounds like something from Seinfeld.

A Hasidic man, in a racist meltdown over a parking space outside a Brooklyn firehouse, slammed his car door into a Black firefighter’s knee and called the man a “n-----” before fleeing the ugly scene, authorities said Friday.

The hate-fueled motorist slapped another firefighter’s arm and blocked a firetruck inside the bays at Engine Company 211-Ladder Company 119 on Hooper St. in South Williamsburg during his rampage as the Bravest squared off with the unhinged man last Sunday, according to officials.

Jacob Deutsch, 55, allegedly hurled the racial epithet at the 42-year-old firefighter and threatened to “go to war” against the man’s colleagues after he was threatened with a summons for pulling his brand new Acura in a spot reserved for FDNY vehicles.

But authorities said Deutsch did not go quietly.

“Hey a-------, don’t write a ticket!” he screamed during the 10 a.m. confrontation, according to court papers. As he pulled out of the first spot, Deutsch then parked directly outside the firehouse’s bay doors, blocking a fire truck that was pulled outside to be washed. He then allegedly exited the vehicle to threaten the firefighters.

Yes, people are morons. And this is a prime example of such. But is it news? Every day billions of dollars in corporate espionage take place, along with other blue collars crimes. And for some reason it's never deemed news worthy.

Yet one guy looses his shit, and suddenly it's important what color his skin is, and the religion he practices. As amusing as this story may seem, always keep in mind that the news is only what we are allowed to see, and is presented to us by corporate media.

Because there is a long history of jews treating black people as non-people.

Right. I think you are missing my point. Local crimes are not news. They are distractions from actual news. In addition, your media type in that link is not supported.

A parking dispute makes the front page of saidit. Hmm. How is this an improvement?

It made the news, it was clearly noteworthy.

How is this an improvement?

What are we even trying to improve?

That it made the news shows the sad state of international news. As local news this is fine, but world wide? We are trying to improve on reddit.
