A racist woman was caught in Florida verbally abusing an Asian nail salon owner.

As reported by the New York Post, a woman in Florida was filmed launching into a racist tirade against an Asian salon owner.

Facebook user Robin L Roether posted two clips to the social media platform of the racist customer shouting at Karen Vu, the owner of Bali Nail Spa in Hillsborough Count

“You sound nasty, your language sounds nasty,” the woman says. “It actually sounds like you were born out of a fucking hermit crab… It’s a gross language”

“Thank you very much for your advice,” replied Vu, calmly.

“If I wanna go to a nail salon, I want them to talk English so they can understand when I want a godd–n top coat,” the customer said to the rest of hte store.

“Whatever you say,” Vu said sarcastically. “Whatever you say.”

“If they don’t understand the language they should go back to their own country — period,” the customer said.

Roether jumped in to defend Vu, “I have to say, I think you’re being pretty nasty. You don’t call them hermit crabs. You’re being fucking nasty. Get your ass out.”

Vu surprisingly remained unfazed by the racist lady’s abuse. “I don’t mind what she said because she doesn’t have control over her mind,” Vu told ABC Action News.

Reother’s clips have since gone viral, attracting a number of comments in support of Vu. One commenter even paid drove 30 minutes to Vu’s salon to give her tips.

“I just wanted to come over here, tell them they don’t deserve to be treated the way that they were from that lady or for anyone else for that matter,” said Jennifer Verge.
