Train Rider told to “Go Back to Asia. God Bless Trump”

An Asian American woman was accosted on a train in North Hollywood by a fellow passenger who went into a profanity-laced tirade about Asian men with small d*cks.

“Go back to Asia,” the man is seen on video saying while giving the woman the finger. “Nuke you, nuke you. God bless Trump, we’re going to nuke you.”

According to Jeanne Heo, the two were riding the Metro train when the man asked her if she was American and if she spoke English.

She replied yes, then says she tried to ignore him.

“When exiting the Metro he asks me, ‘where are your genetics from, do you happen to be from Korea,'” wrote Heo on Facebook. “I asked him ‘why do you wanna know?’ and then immediately he went on to reveal his racist agenda.”

Heo is heard on her video dropping more than a few “F” bombs of her own.

Facebook has deleted the video saying it doesn’t meet its community standards.

Despite her use of strong language, Heo was remarkably composed during the ordeal while focusing her cell phone camera on the perpetrator. While watching, I was afraid for Heo and wondered whether he would physically attack her.

Heo says two guys came to her defense and “punched this f****er” while another woman walked with her to where she was going.

Comments on Facebook have been overwhelmingly positive with many commending her courage.

“So sorry this happened Jeanne, this was disgusting to watch,” wrote one.  “Stay safe and sending my love!”

“It’s unfortunate and amazing how uneducated and ignorant people can be in today’s digital world full of news and social media attention that highlight dumb ass behavior like this. But I guess the real dumb ones just stay stupid. I’m sure it’s related to deeper issues. Glad he just punched out tho!,” said another.
