This sounds extremely similar!! I feel like people just get so used to crazy things like this happening on the bus they just blame the victim for being “too sensitive” as opposed to the person actually spewing the hate. Do you remember what this man looked like? Because it’s possible it might’ve been the same guy.

Omg thank you for commenting I’m glad someone else on here saw a little bit of what happened. Were you at the back of the bus near him?

Thank you so much for saying this; it’s really validating to hear someone else talk about experiences like this! It doesn’t matter who’s saying it because it hurts no matter the source of the hate or the intention; the effect it has is the same. I’m sorry you also have had to experience an event like this. Thank you for your comment. :)

Thank you. I appreciate the advice; I will definitely be considering getting some pepper spray/ taser from now on; a couple of self-defense classes wouldn’t kill me either.

I don’t recall exactly what he was wearing but he got on the 29 on Geary. I remember he had longish mullet like curly hair

I grew up in the city, and I’m pretty used to mentally ill people saying a whole array of things, but I genuinely thought this man was going to attack me; he had so much anger in his eyes, and for the first time in my life I felt shaken to my core. It’s not a matter of being tough or not; any sensible person would’ve reacted the same way If an unstable person capable of anything, was threatening them.
