PORTLAND, Ore. -- (KABB) -- A lesbian couple in Portland, Oregon were the target of a man's hate-filled rant on Sunday.
It was caught on camera.
The confrontation now going viral.
The couple are not only upset by that language -- but say police did not help.
"Let's go! Act like a f--- man, get hit like one, c---! Gay pride a-- b----!"
Riddled with hateful language -- it's the video so many are talking about -- this encounter if you will -- playing out in southeast Portland.
"C'mon! you're a f--- woman. I'd knock you on your f**** ass, you fat cow!"
Fielding those threats -- is Trudy Dragoon.
"They all got out of the truck, drunk, and he started screaming d--- at us so I walked across the street to confront him because I'm just done with it,” Trudy Dragoon said.
And behind the camera -- her wife -- Wendy.
"He started threatening violence and so that's when I'm like 'ok, I guess I have to record this in case something happens,” said Wendy Dragoon.
"Oh, I'm so scared of a f--- lesbian. I'm so scared, I'm so scared."
"You're crazy. You should be really embarrassed of yourself,” Trudy Dragoon said.
It lasts just three minutes -- then a passing police officer stops.
"Tell her to keep walking!"
The video ends there.
"He said 'Saying mean things isn't against the law,” said Wendy Dragoon.
"Tru was saying 'What can I do? Is there anything I can do?' And he said 'Not until he actually physically assaults you, there's nothing that can be done,” said Wendy.
That upset the couple even more -- and while we were talking to them today that same cop and a supervisor show up -- to begin taking statements after Trudy and Wendy say nothing was done last night.
