The immense power of social media has once and for all been demonstrated in a video exposing a rude LRT passenger humiliating a lady guard in front of the public. The woman, who will not be named in this blog, was caught in a video bashing and challenging the lady guard for still an unknown reason.

The amateur video was shot by a Facebook user named Gregory Paulo Llamoso RN. In his video description, he described what has happened at the time the video was taken.
CAUGHT ON MY CAMERA: "RUDE Passenger Humiliate a Lady Guard" I was about to leave Santolan LRT Station kanina, but a loud voice caught my attention and all the people present there, ang lakas ng boses niya even she was small..Buti nalang the Lady Guard exhibited the right behavior. She did not fight back and she just kept cool and said her sorry. She didn’t even utter foul words against the bully passenger. I dont know the side of the story but some Bystander told me na sinita siya ng Lady Guard kasi mali ang pinasukan niyang way but the passengers behavior surprised me, sobrang degrading naman yung ginawa niya sa Lady Guard her arrogance and misplaced sense is aliving proof that being a true woman requires more than just privileged education and breeding parang siya ang walang pinag-aralan in that case sayang hindi ko alam school niya., pinuntahan ko nalang yung Head ng security and suggested na dalhin sa office yung babaeng nagwawala hindi in public, nagkaroon tuloy ng Scandal dun na really an unacceptable behavior...I don't care how this incident started, nobody has the right to treat another person--especially one who's merely performing a low-paying job just to put food on the table--this way. GUSTO KO SANA IPADALA SA TV PATROL/24 ORAS hehe © GREGORY LLAMOSO (Bayan Patroller) :D
Widespread online criticism and mockery of the video have been prevalent among Facebook users in the Philippines. Some have even posted "Amalayer!"-containing messages on Facebook wall posts and Twitter feeds.
Meanwhile, a certain Czarina Cherizze Camacho Martinez released her own exaggerated, humor-filled version of the words uttered during the incident. The video, found below, is entitled "AMALAYER? Hi miss. I'm just returning the faverrr".

Apparently, the woman-on-the-video's side on the incident has not yet been aired. Prejudice might have won this time, as always.
