Dindu Cabbie Apocalypse
Sand Dindu Cabbie's Rubout Uber Driver on 10/18/16

Speaking with Uber Joe last night in an interview about his new line of work, which has been paying up to $800 a week—but is hard on his car and he will have to write off the gas expenses as a tax deduction—he informed me that the success of this safety-minded internet driven sedan service has put he and his coworkers in the crosshairs of traditional cabbies.
Last week, as he drove down Route 22 in Harford County, an actual Hindu Dindu pulled up next to him in a car also marked with an Uber U, and began screaming at Joe, telling him in English mixed with "dot head-jibberish" that Joe was in his territory. He then proceeded to try and run Joe off the road. Joe, a former amateur stock car driver, used evasive action and found a safe turn off as the Hindu Dindu raged on down the road.
Joe counts himself lucky, and tries to avoid making pickups in the Inner Harbor area, where the cabbies [who have been driven from West Baltimore by illegal black hackers and street thugs] stack up at traditional cab stands by the hotels. My interviews with Boomy indicate that most African cabbies have left Baltimore for safer towns, and are being replaced by Middle Eastern and North African Cabbies. Joe tells me that when one uses his Uber app to pick up a fare, he will not know where the fare is headed until the passenger is onboard, so he has ended up in some sketchy places, as well as the Inner Harbor.
Yesterday, Joe got a call that one of his friends had dropped off a fare at the Inner Harbor. Two cabbies then crossed the street, in the afternoon, under the watchful eyes of numerous Baltimore City Police Officers, dragged the Uber driver from his car, threw him to the ground and stomped his head into the pavement. Police converged on the stomping dervishes and arrested them. The Uber driver was taken away by ambulance, was still in a coma as of 10 P.M., with the shock trauma doctors unsure of his chances of survival. Joe did not get a detailed description of the cabbies. However, a witness was heard wondering aloud if the attackers would "be tried or deported."
