この "racially abuse" は、見出しの下に示されているリード文(見出しに補足する形で、記事の要点を短く述べた文)で "a man shouting 'terrible things' at her" と言い換えられている。"terrible things" に引用符がついているのは、それが警察が使った表現そのものだからである(この引用符の使い方のルールについては、つい先日もまた説明したばかりなので、そちらをご参照いただきたい)。
Without Pat Hume, there would have been no peace process in Ireland, that’s the simple truth.
The compassion, integrity and immense fortitude that defined her incredible character breathed life into our peace. Thank you for everything, Pat.https://t.co/q2cuJ88UUA
My deepest sympathies to the Hume family on the death of Pat Hume. A unique life well lived and no one who met John left the conversation without knowing Pat. A lovely lady. pic.twitter.com/kWlpVnhgz7
Duck is the common name for numerous species of waterfowl in the family Anatidae. Ducks are generally smaller and shorter-necked than swans and geese, which are also members of the same family. Divided among several subfamilies, they are a form taxon; they do not represent a monophyletic group (the group of all descendants of a single common ancestral species), since swans and geese are not considered ducks.

RIP Dennis Goldberg, Rivonia trialist, anti-apartheid activist, who recognised evil and sacrificed so much personally to fight it, when it would have been so easy for him to look away. Interviewing him was an unforgettable honour.https://t.co/k7kReI93k5
The purpose of nation-building in Afghanistan was not to build democracy but to build a security force able to hold off the Taliban & terrorists. We did this out of self-interest. The improved human rights situation was a positive byproduct of our efforts, not the rationale.
In the NBC poll, Biden’s approval among registered voters has gone from 51% in April to 50% now even amid the chaos in Afghanistan. Yes CBS is bigger drop but it was an outlier high to start. Larger point: elections now a brutal game of inches between two entrenched coalitions.
