Food truck workers attacked in LoDo (Denver) after customer uses racial slurs
http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/food-truck-workers-attacked-in-lodo-after-customer-uses-racial-slursTwo food truck workers say they were attacked in LoDo in their food truck, after they refused to serve a customer who used racial slurs....
Around 8:30 p.m., they said, a group of three men placed an order, and one of the men was yelling obscenities and racial slurs.
"He pretty much singled me out for being black by using a word we're all familiar with," said Gibbons.
"Out of nowhere, he basically just threw out the 'N' word," said Umland. "So, we told them to go. We weren't going to serve them. And that's when he came up to the food truck and punched me in the face."

Gosh, I'm so glad we're a post-racial society!
