A woman was caught on film racially abusing an Asian father after his kids used chalk on the sidewalk.

Uploaded by Facebook user 小黃, the woman is seen saying to the man behind the camera, “you son of a b*tch, you ought to tell your kids to stop.”

Her husband standing behind her tries to pull her back, saying “Marilyn, come on.”

“I don’t think you live here, because you have slanted eyes,” Marilyn then says.

“Slanted eyes? Wow that’s racist. Woww, Slanted eyes,” 小黃 responds.

“You have nice kids and you have a nice wife,” Marilyn says.

“Well apparently they’re not nice when they’re coloring chalk. What’s bothering you about this?” The man asks.

“It looks like sh*t,” Marilyn replies.

“No one has a problem with it except you? You’ve had a problem with me since I moved in here!”小黃 states.

“No, we saw a guy that didn’t have slanted eyes before you,” Marilyn said.

“Slanted eyes, here we go again,” 小黃 said.

In the post, 小黃 explained that his kids were using chalk on the public street within their housing complex.

“Our street has 12 units and never, NEVER has anyone complained about our kids, any kids,” he emphasized. “For that matter, coloring and drawing with sidewalk chalk. We tell our kids to respect people’s boundaries, we tell them to never color on walls, garages and anything that is not our.”

He went on to say that the couple would “only say hello to my wife and my mother in law because they are both white.”

“I really don’t care if you like me or not. You want to come at me, come get some. But when you come at my kids and my family, you crossed the line and I am going to do everything in my power to protect whats mine,” he said.

“I am not going to let this woman and her husband’s action overshadow all the good that I see in my neighbors and this world.”

“To all my friends, please help me share this, make this go live, share this, get the word out. The only way we can stop people from acting like this is to make sure they understanding it is wrong and they can’t get away with it.”

So it finally happened. My "Karen" encounter of 2020.

I was in my garage minding my own business when I was approached by "Karen". Her complaint – our kids using sidewalk chalk on the public street within our complex. Our street has 12 units and never, NEVER has anyone complained about our kids, any kids For that matter, coloring and drawing with sidewalk chalk. We tell our kids to respect people's boundaries, we tell them to never color on walls, garages and anything that is not our. I always, ALWAYS live by the motto love your neighbors as yourself…but she crossed the line. First you came in to my garage uninvited, then you call me "squinted eyes". I keep asking you to leave and you didn't. If the role was reversed, I probably would have gotten shot already. They only say hello to my wife and my mother in law because they are both white. I really don't care if you like me or not. You want to come at me, come get some. But when you come at my kids and my family, you crossed the line and I am going to do everything in my power to protect whats mine. Finally, after repeated warning and asking them to leave multiple times, I finally stopped what I was doing and got my garage knife and activated the blade. The husband saw the blade in full extension and I ask them to leave again and finally he escorted her out.
He kept saying something is wrong with me, no bro, something is wrong with you.

BTW, there is no rules within our associations CC&R, bylaws and regulations about using sidewalk chalk on public streets.

I can't tell you how upset I am. I pride myself in how I present myself. Jenine and I do the best we can to raise our kids right, teaching them right from wrong, respect others, doing the right thing even when people aren’t looking. I am not going to let this woman and her husband's action overshadow all the good that I see in my neighbors and this world.

To all my friends, please help me share this, make this go live, share this, get the word out. The only way we can stop people from acting like this is to make sure they understanding it is wrong and they can't get away with it.
