A white man was refused service and kicked out of a California cafe after he threw an angry Islamophic tirade at a young woman wearing a niqab.
The victim of the tirade filmed the moment she was verbally attacked by the white man who said ‘I don’t want to be killed by you’ at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf cafe.
The video of the Friday incident has gone viral online with 884,000 views.
The nearly two-minute clip begins with the white man standing at the counter of a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf talking to the woman wearing a niqab, a religious head scarf that covers the entire face save for the eyes.
‘Is this Halloween or something?’ he says.
The woman films the man and responds saying: ‘Why would you say that? What’s wrong with me?’
‘Do you know I’m a Muslim? What’s your problem with that?’ she adds.
‘I don’t like that because I don’t like your religion. It says to kill me and I don’t want to be killed by you. How’s that?’ he responds.
‘Are you scared of me? Have you read the Koran?’ she cuts him off, adding he needs to understand the context of such statements.
She then asks if he’s a Christian and says ‘let’s talk about your Bible’.
But the man isn’t having any of it and raises his hand to her face repeating ‘that’s all’.
‘I don’t have any kind of conversation with idiots,’ he adds.
‘You are committing hate speech!’ she yells at him as he turns his back.
A store worker then approaches the two from behind the counter, asking them to separate.
