An Asian woman was verbally assaulted with racist comments for turning down a lunch date.

The incident occurred on Monday at he El Taurino restaurant near Koreatown.

A man, who identified himself as Fredrick Douglas Smith, approached a Korean woman and asked her if she would join him for lunch, handing his card to her.

When the woman, identified as HD Lee, declined his offer, Smith launched into a racist tirade. Lee captured Smith on camera.

“I was waiting in line to order food, the person next to me handed me their card and said let’s have lunch together. I declined and said, “I’m sorry, I’m married.” He then snatched his card back and screamed the most HATEFUL racial slurs and DEGRADING words in the English dictionary towards me,” wrote Lee in her post.

In the clip, Smith is heard saying “go back to fucking Asia, fucking bitch!”

He revealed his full name, social identity number and his birthday. “My name is Fredrick Douglas Smith, my social security number is 557390521, born 6 November 1970.”

“I’m a contributor to the Obama administration, fucking Asian cunt,” Smith continued. “Get the fuck out of here. Look at you.”

Lee is heard telling the man that he’s scaring her as she slowly starts crying.

“You look like shit,” he continued before asking a staff member to “tell that bitch to stop filming me.”

“Black lives matter,” he added.

This afternoon, I was verbally and almost physically assaulted by a stranger due to the color of my skin. While I was waiting in line to order food, the person next to me handed me their card and said let’s have lunch together. I declined and said, “I’m sorry, I’m married.” He then snatched his card back and screamed the most HATEFUL racial slurs and DEGRADING words in the English dictionary towards me. I am appalled that someone would tell me to “Go back to Asia” after being born and raised in the US. What was more disappointing is that LAPD said there’s NOTHING they can do to address the situation. This is 2020 and we are ALL fighting for EQUAL rights. I will never forget the words that this man uttered. Please share this video so we can raise awareness that treating everyone with love and kindness is more important now than ever before. I hope and pray that someone can recognize this man so he can get the help that he desperately needs before another person is attacked.
