A woman who was filmed pepper spraying four Asian women in a racially motivated attack in Manhattan last week has been tracked down and arrested by police, after video of the incident went viral.
The suspect, 47-year-old Madeline Barker, was caught on camera hurling racial insults at the victims, such as 'Go back to where you came from' and you don't belong here,' during the June 10 altercation.
The incident, which transpired in a public plaza in the Meatpacking District, subsequently sparked a search for the then-unidentified woman - dubbed 'Karen' by internet users. *** Barker, who hails from Florida, now faces hate crime charges for the attack, and was awaiting an appearance Saturday in Manhattan Criminal Court on charges of assault as a hate crime, attempted assault as a hate crime and harassment as a hate crime.
The incident, which left one victim 'unable to open her eyes,' comes amid a rash of anti-Asian violence in City That Never Sleeps.

Even though the victims attempted to walk away, Barker, who faces hate crime charges, chased and pepper sprayed the victims in the face, the footage shows. One victim said she was 'unable to open [her] eyes' after the attack. *** '[She was] saying, like, "Go back to where you came from, you don't belong here,"' one victim recalled to ABC 7.
'She pointed to an Asian bystander who was a man, we didn't know who he was, pointed at him and said, "Take your ***** back to your country."'

If the perp was black, this would not be a story at all.
More like Maxine (ugh) Waters.
Wow. Charged with a “Hate Crime”.
I mean, from reading the article, she could have been any race. She could have been Asian for all anyone knows, attacking other Asian women.
But she sure looks black. Can’t say that, of course.
The name is: MAC...not Madeline.
Trans if ever there was one. This may get interesting. Trans going after another minority
LoL
Pepper Spray?
Should have used Soy Sauce.
As Joan Rivers would say arf arf arf.
Younger Maxine Waters?
Black suspect, Asian-American victim(s), all caught on camera.
There's no way to blame white supremacists for any of this, so we'll never see it on CNN, MSNBC, or in the New York Times.
Instead, we'll continue to hear about how the Buffalo mass shooter (white suspect, black victims) is definitely a white supremacist ... and never hear about how he defined himself as "mild, moderate, authoritarian left" on page 9 of his 180-page manifesto.
The rule of propaganda is that if a particular fact supports the Holy Left-Wing Narrative, we'll hear about it 24/7 for weeks; but if it contradicts their narrative, we'll never hear about it. You have to search for among smaller, conservative outlets such as Daily Wire.
Asians are getting tired of being beaten and robbed in the streets, and then watching the Democrat powers do nothing about it, because arresting criminals is racist. This is how Chesa Boudin got thrown out on his commie ass in San Fran... a huge Asian and Latin contingent voted him out in a city that is 93% Democrat.
So I would tell the Dems, keep robbing, beating and abusing people while you allow wholesale shoplifting to loot small businesses.
And may the voters send you all to hell.
