A man went on an anti-Asian tirade after being asked to wear a mask while riding a bus in Florida earlier this month. The incident, which was partially caught on video, occurred on a Miami-Dade Transit bus on the evening of March 9.
Lai, who is Chinese American, asked the man and his companion, a white woman, to wear masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.(snip) Lai told the Miami New Times. “My dad is 76, and I can’t afford to bring COVID home.”
However, the pair of commuters still refused to cover their faces. This forced Lai to turn to the driver for help. It was at that point when the man reportedly began his racist tirade. He allegedly referred to Lai with slurs such as “gook” and “chink.”
Lai decided to film the incident. The man became visibly upset, walked toward the driver and asked to be dropped off at the next stop. Lai then told the man, “Maybe you don’t need to be racist to me.” “I don’t give a f*ck what you saying, man. I got daughters older than you,” the man replied. “Mind yo’ goddamn business, Chinese lady. Ugly-a** chink. Mind yo’ goddamn business, man.”
The verbal altercation went on as the man continued to hurl slurs. At one point, Lai had to insist that she was born in the U.S. As the man prepared to drop off, he gave Lai the middle finger. “Smile for the camera. Smile for this chink,” he said. “F*ck your culture.”
Lai has since reported the incident to Miami-Dade Transit and to the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office. A prosecutor reportedly told her that the man cannot be prosecuted for a hate crime as “no crime” was committed in the first place.

I am over the masks. I am not wearing one ever again. If asked to put one on I will politely leave. They can do without my business.
Just a guess - it wasn’t Sir Laurence Olivier.
Chunk?
The only white person I’ve seen in these ridiculous stories in the one white guy who hit an Asian lady who then beat the hell of him. Isn’t it amazing to see every little Asian insult made into national news?
“Xi’s Newspuppets” are hard at work on The Narrative.
We all know what kind of international coverage this would get if the individuals’ races were transformed a bit.
Mask-stasi are the worst. He wasn’t anywhere near the lady. She shoulda kept it to herself, IMHO.
No, but she should have minded her own business. He shouldnt have called her that, but he should have the right to without getting into trouble.
Well, she shouldn’t have “asked” (more likely demanded) he wear a mask.
And grow some freakin’ skin, for the love of Pete. People gonna call you names sometimes - get over it.
She shouldn’t have been riding the bus if she was that worried about her father. Take a cab next time.
Parked wheel to wheel, and pounding non-stop till we eat their Narrative whole.
I saw this yesterday and was struck by the fact that they made no mention that the instigator was a black man. They commented about his white female companion, which is immaterial to the story, but they refused to point out an extremely obvious fact. And the media wonders why we hate them.
How do you say “Karen” in Chinese?
I had a security guard ask me o put a mask on the other day. I told him to shoot me or leave me alone.
Ka-Run Baizuo.
BS meter alert...
I just tell people I’m under indictment for second degree murder, and one more won’t make any difference.
He has black privilege, so he can do or say anything he wants without consequence.
