Showing Original Post only (View all)WATCH: Woman screams at Hispanic family for playing 'Mexican' music in the park [View all]
May 25, 2020
By Brad Reed

A white woman this week was caught on camera screaming at a Hispanic family in a park because they were not playing American music.
In the video, the woman can be seen confronting the family and chiding them for playing what she described as Mexican music during their outing in the park.
One of the men in the park objected to her tirade and informed her that were not Mexican.

Then play American music! she screamed back at them, as a man who had come to the park with her tried to pull her away. Play American music!

I don't approve of the "Karen" either, but this despicable, entitled behavior has to be outed.

I hope her 15 minutes are full of people giving her "what for" for her bigotry.

I agree. Why in the world that name is being used this way is a mystery to me.

I like calling them Karens - we instantly know we are dealing with a white racist woman

I disagree with that. If you want absolute silence head for the woods or stay home.

Noise pollution, it's just rude to play music in public. Rude. Play it at home.

Many towns have noise ordinances, so in many places it is regulated.

Don't like it? You've got a phone. You've got headphones. You've got a spotify account.

I bet she just wanted to hear Yma Sumac sing El Condor Pasa, a traditional old American tune
