Muni rider Annie offers the following tale of … justice?:

I was riding the 47 Van Ness bus one early afternoon. The bus wasn’t very crowded, so I move towards the back of the bus. I decided to sit down on one of the very last row of seats. Sitting on my left was a girl who was blasting rap music. There was also an old guy who was sitting nearby. Due to the noise of the bus, I couldn’t really hear what he was saying. I figured he was probably just talking to himself, and I was reading a book so I didn’t pay much attention.

So it turns out the girl next to me heard what he was saying and called him out for being a creep and a pervert. She begins to shout at him for being an old guy and trying to get with young girls. According to the girl, he had been staring at the three girls who sat directly across from him.

Riding the Muni, I have found that there’s always creeps trying to check out girls and this was no exception. When I get on the bus, I try to notice if there are any weirdos and creeps, but of course as demonstrated, it doesn’t always work. The girl shouts that he’s been trying to get with these girls and saying stuff like “You’re so beautiful” and according to the girl, about to flash his privates on the bus to them.

Once she called him out for being a perv, they began the screaming match. “Bitch, bitch” was thrown back and forth. The old guy tried to defend himself, by saying the girls didn’t say no to him and that it was none of her business. They also threatened to get off the bus and fight each other. The girl stood her ground and said it was her business when he was being a pervert. People started to turn around and stare at him. He decided to get off the bus. Once he did, the girl gets off her seat. She slides open the window and took the cap off her soda cup. Then she aims directly at him and splashes the drink all over him. I grinned when she did this, and saw his astonished and angry face being left behind on the bus.

Once the bus pulls away from the stop, the three girls thank her. They say that they didn’t notice him being a creep, probably because they were just talking amongst themselves. The girl says that she knew what was about to go on and you gotta keep a watch out for perverts.

A few stops later, I get off to get some art supplies. As I walk down the block, I see the pervert and he makes some noise at me. What a creep, I think.
