4. 2 fired by LI car dealership after racist comments on LIRR. Two employees of Empire Toyota of Huntington were fired after making racist remarks on an LIRR train Monday night. In a video posted to Twitter, a man could be heard telling someone, "Don't f---ing look at me," and "I'm going to get arrested tonight." Someone told him the argument was not worth getting arrested over, to which the man said, "I know it's worth it, but these f---ing foreigners ain't taking over my f---ing country." The dealership fired the employees immediately after their investigation concluded, as they were suspended when management first heard about the incident. (Huntington Patch)
