In the wake of American cops illustrating a general lack of respect for black lives no one is looking for more evidence that there are ignorant, racist old white folks within their borders.
That evidence just keeps on cropping up, mind you, this time at pancake joint IHOP in southern California. Carlos Vasquez whipped his phone out after a woman began abusing his mother for speaking Spanish, filming the three-minute tirade that has now gone viral. Some of her real zingers below from Mashable:
“We want English, we don’t want the Nazis back,” she said, which confused the boy and most likely anyone watching the scene…
“We speak English in America”.
At one stage she also mentioned the Russians, although to be fair she would probably fail to point out the U.S. on a map herself so knowledge of the rest of the world can’t be expected.
Vasquez quoted here speaking later about the incident, his mother originally from El Salvador in case you were wondering:
“Inside, I wasn’t upset…I got more upset when my mom started to cry. It wasn’t fair for my mom to cry to a stranger just because my mom was speaking Spanish.”
He also added, at the end of the woman’s rant, that this is why he’s “saying no to Donald Trump.”
I wonder how Donald will react when he hears this old bag has cost him, although I think even he will admit (behind close doors) that he might have lost the immigrant vote.
