the thing about this video is that it's not just that one woman but it looks like there are others who agree with her. and NOBODY defending the hispanic women being attacked by her. AND i have watched various links to this video and articles with comments sections and there are wayyy to many claiming this has nothing to do with racism. that the woman was upset over line cutting. so they ignore all the bigoted crap she is spewing and try to claim it has nothing to do with that.

and the line cutting is bs also since they were already in the line and being helped. one woman just left to get a couple other things to add on to the other items being checked out. this happens all the time. it shouldn't get any reaction other than some groans over having to wait a few seconds longer.
