I don't see any problem with reasoning here.
He said:
1) That the problem is real.
2) That, anecdotally, he met one person that behaved in a way that could only be explained by the problem being real.
This is not a proof, just anecdotal evidence, but quite good one. This kind of behaviour from a person is much more trustworthy to me than people just saying they are being discriminated.

What if these feelings are unjustified? I'm not saying they aren't, but again, there isn't evidence supporting this.
