In a video that has gone ciral on social media websites all over the place, a woman in Colorado is seen racially abusing a Mexican-American woman at the Grand Junction area. The family of the victim posted the video on the Facebook account of one Wendy Flores, in which, the woman, who has been identified as Laura Bennett was abusing the woman. Wendy Flores' mother was the subject of the racially motivated verbal attack. As at this point of time, the video has been shared more than 4700 people and the number of views as of this moment stands at 210,000.
In the video, the woman is heard saying, " ... be the wetback coming to get services, honey. You! Your kind." She went on to say, "Just f***ing want to get something for nothing. Get your ass a job if you don't have one," the woman said, snapping at Flores' mother when she spoke Spanish to defend her right to record her. "Speak English b***h. It's America. Put me on YouTube. Go for it. Down with Mexicans that don't learn the language of the world,"
Wendy Flores wrote on her Facebook page about the incident, " My parents have sacrificed so much so much for us and it breaks my heart the way they get treated because of their broken English. I know they can speak english. And I know my mother understood every single word they said. But how can you respond to that when you see your child crying because he doesn't understand why they are saying that. What do you do when your 6 year old grand daughter is so scared she can't stop crying in the car. They say the way you treat people speaks more about your character and who YOU are as a person. These women are a disgrace to humanity over all. America is a diverse country. And that's what makes it such a wonderful place to be a part of. We are all human beings trying to survive. Remember that next time you are trying to bring yourself up by putting someone down."
