[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an Asian woman and have had people yelling at me to go back to my country often (I was born here).

No one ever intervenes so OP, I appreciate that you said something.

It doesn't even matter exactly what you said. It matters that you stood up and said something, and showed support for the woman. It was also wise to not provoke him further, and to protect yourself at the same time.

Thank you.

What sorts of people yell this at you?

Is it only white men? [/quote]

No, both black and white. Homeless men too LOL[/quote]

Homeless people don’t count for these purposes. They’re mentally unwell. I’m white and homeless people yell nasty stuff all the time.  I don’t take it personally [/quote]

Not all homeless people are mentally unwell unless you are stretching to include people who would be fine if they took their medication or stayed off alcohol and drugs.   [/quote]

Well, I don’t think any of us can say for sure as there is a lot of comorbidity between mental illness and addiction, but I find people who get mortally offended by people like this to be sort of strange, and almost looking to be angry about something.

These sorts of homeless people are crazy, to put it simply. Ignore them. [/quote]
