This just in: Gay Trump supporter Charles Geier insists that he’s “not a racist” despite damning evidence to the contrary.
Video of 58-year-old Geier shouting racist and misogynistic insults at a Latina woman and her toddler-aged daughter went viral late last week.
“You’re driving in two lanes, you stupid b*tch!” Geier can be heard screaming. “That’s not how we drive in America. Trump’s deporting your stupid cousins today, b*tch!”
Can we make this pleasure of a guy famous? Twitter is good at taking down racists. Took place in Houston. @MollyJongFast @krassenstein @EdKrassen @MattNegrin pic.twitter.com/Bbh5BpFfRP

Now, speaking to ABC 13, Geier, who asked to go by the name of “Kevin” in the report to protect his identify (even though everyone already knows his name after internet sleuths tracked him down on Facebook), says he’s “so sorry” for the whole thing.
How about we take this to the next level?

Geier acknowleges that he “reacted in a poor manner” and “said things that were offensive that I shouldn’t have said.”
But, he adds, “I want people to know is that I suffer from bi-polar disorder. It’s very real, it’s not a joke, it’s not an excuse.”
ABC 13 also reports that Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo tweeted that the department is aware of the incident and investigators are currently determining whether a crime was committed.
The @houstonpolice Department is aware of this incident and investigators have been assigned to determine what, if any, crime was committed. Regardless of our finding, the behavior exhibited is abhorrent. #RelationalPolicing https://t.co/6eLkUYt6Pc

What a typical racist creep! He got caught, videotaped, and identified, so now “Kevin” wants to apologize, even though the world he showed what he truly felt. Girl, bye!

Even if you’re bipolar, racist actions express racism.
JamJewel
Was going to say the same thing… just like the shit that comes out of your mouth when you’re drunk is the REAL SHIT in your head.

All races in the US express racism but it is the racism of white people, like Kevin, who speak and do such ugly things to people of color yet deny they are racists. This is what perpetuates not only regular racism, which is horrible enough, but institutional racism, where people of color are bypassed or given fewer opportunities for jobs, housing, services, and material wealth because of who they are. That’s the worst racism there is. Kevin is merely a tool of that kind of racism=white privilege. Although seemingly unrelated, it is very related that racism also permeates dating and LGBT dating, in particular. I’m glad Qweerty, which can often seem as the press agent of young, white 20-something celebrities, has published articles on racism in dating as well as other forms of racist behavior, such as Kevin.

Hey moron, read the article. The guys name is Charles Geier. “Kevin” is just some name he made up.

@Kieren: Coruna2018 was being polite and using the name that was requested:
“Geier, who asked to go by the name of “Kevin” in the report to protect his identify”
In my book a polite moron trumps a loudmouth rude lout every time.
Kieran
Let’s face it, if being a loud, obnoxious jerk with anger issues were a crime, half the people with Trump Derangement Syndrome in America would be in jail. *

Now, now, no need to call the people Hillary Clinton labeled “deplorables” a new nickname, “people with Trump Derangement Syndrome in America.” Let’s just call them Trumpistas, or Trump supporters, or something neutral, OK? The Orange Oaf may be “unhinged,” as numerous former advisors and confidants of his have labeled him, and some of them like “Kevin” or the domestic terrorist Cesar Sayoc or the wacko who murdered two innocent people in Kentucky may be too, but saying all of his supporters suffer from “derangement” goes a bit far, doesn’t it, Kieran? ;-D
Goforit
Now there you go again Kieran. It would be refreshing if Faux News and their sheeple listeners could get something (anything) right. It is not “Trump Derangement Syndrome”. It is “Deranged Trump Syndrome”.

LMAO, bye Felicia. No one is buying that you trumptarded racist.
nitejonboy
I am NOT defending him, but I myself am bipolar and I know well what it’s like to snap and say things you don’t mean in the midst of an episode. He probably is a racist though, that part I do believe.
btrmale
There’s no way that guy is 58. Looks more like 78+. Probably older than trump so he’s a racist just like trump.

I never understand in America, where the foundation of the country is RACISM! Why racists extend so much energy denying they are racists. America’s economy, infrastructure, cast system, are all products of institutionalized RACISM! Yet the proponents of said RACISM are not proud of their work.
DHT
Yeah…he’s not a racist, he just plays one on video.
