Occupy Wall Street: Security Guard Calls Videographer Joey Boots A 'Faggot'
 Part of channel(s): Occupy Wall Street (current event)



The New York City Police Department's unexpected descent onto Zuccotti Park early this morning has rattled many supporters of the two-month-long Occupy Wall Street protests.

Now the approach of area security toward the protests' lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) sector is once again being called into a question, after footage of a Brookfield Properties guard using a gay slur toward LGBT videographer Joey Boots, an ex-military veteran who has appeared on "The Howard Stern Show," emerged in the gay blogosphere.

As captured in the below clip, one unnamed security guard told Boots, "Your fly's open, faggot." (The statement takes place at about 1:48)
