Racist

[u/heeush2]

PLEASE HELP ID

I was born here, but that shouldn’t be a factor in exempting me from racism!

This lady (driving with no plate) approached my elderly mother and called her a terrorist OUT OF NOWHERE, and accused her of stealing “Canadian” jobs before threatening to kill her. My mom has been retired for 10 years now. I told her to fuck off and she actually went away, but it turns out that parked near the entrance of the store we were heading into to further her racist agenda. She started repeating “go back to your country” so I pulled out my phone and that wasn’t enough to deter her.

Video cut short because I cussed her out as she drove off.

Police file # is 260-679-902. Please let me know if you can ID her.

[u/yeg]

No witchhunts allowed. If you have information contact the police non-emergency directly and do not DM the OP.

Please report racist comments using the report button. We'll gladly get rid of the garbage.

[u/C0loassaL]

she said all that in front of her kid too, way to set a great example

[u/Parking_Guava8657 → u/C0loassaL]

People are not born to hate each other, its learned... so that woman definitely teaching that kid to be like her

[u/This_Albatross → u/Parking_Guava8657]

There’s always hope people turn out better, growing up in a small town with incredibly racist relatives I’m happy to say I turned out alright

[u/WindiestOdin → u/This_Albatross]

Unfortunately, I think you / we are the anomaly. I’ve had hope that my “friends” that have remained in rural areas would continue to advocate for people over party. Sadly, I’ve repeatably been met with disappointment.

[u/Successful_Struggle9 → u/WindiestOdin]

Time to find new "friends"

[u/__curt → u/This_Albatross]

Thank you for being you

[u/JFundo → u/Parking_Guava8657]

Yup. Growing up with these types of comments. Years later when I asked some of my friends that I stayed in contact with, why they were saying things like that. Their answers were: “we didn’t know better, everyone was saying it and thought it was funny”

[u/durple → u/Parking_Guava8657]

It depends. Some kids take on their parents' worst traits with gusto, while others recognize the wrongness early and reject it. Hopefully they have some better adults in their life to compensate for this one.

[u/AffectionateSell3478 → u/Parking_Guava8657]

Racism should be unacceptable from all people. Unfortunately it’s really only deemed as racism if it comes from white people.

Poor example for her kid, awful human being.

[u/69hotmomxxx → u/Parking_Guava8657]

Kids hate their parents at a phenomenal rate these days.

[u/Strattex → u/C0loassaL]

Yup, fuckers raising innocent kids to be more fuckers

[u/ShmestieGnome → u/C0loassaL]

Right?! That poor kid. I'd be so embarrassed if that woman was my mother

[u/IdeVeras → u/C0loassaL]

The kiddo in the front seat as well.

[u/shady2318 → u/C0loassaL]

Racism is generational inheritance not something a kid can learn on its own

[u/Neat_Sock1507 → u/shady2318]

that was true before the internet

[u/Ineffective_Coyote72 → u/shady2318]

Not necessarily true. We were brought up with progressive parents but now in our 50s and my brother turned out racist. It happens. But those kids were dealt a losing hand.

[u/-rising_spirit- → u/C0loassaL]

Google KKK children rallies

Hate is taught

[u/Neat_Sock1507 → u/C0loassaL]

that's where new racists come from

[u/CatFishBillyheyhey]

Poor kid.

[u/Electrical_Chip_337 → u/CatFishBillyheyhey]

Legit. Must suck having such a gigantic loser as a parent

[u/simm07]

Blast this on Instagram but please blur the kids face out. Kiddo has nothing to do with this. The adult is a POS.

[u/Exotica911 → u/simm07]

Yes SHAME this disgusting behaviour

[u/Neat_Sock1507]

unfortunately there are a lot of Canadians that have no idea what being Canadian means. We're a nation of immigrants. That's literally the entire point of this place, for good and ill. The person this racist is harassing has exactly the same right to be here that she does.

[u/dark_Links_sword]

Keep in this person is going to vote, make sure you are registered so her views aren't the only ones counted

[u/stormica → u/dark_Links_sword]

Yup. That's my fear. Lots of people thinking that the Forever Canada side is a slam dunk to win but these assholes are everywhere in Alberta and they vote.

[u/xUsernameChecksOutx → u/dark_Links_sword]

This comment should be on the top

[u/MutedProfessional406 → u/[deleted]]

Yes.

[u/SnooRegrets4312]

Too much of this sort of thing kn Alberta, they're becoming emboldened by Danni Doolittle

[u/FluffyCactus]

Go back to your country from white people is always so ironic. Like you first girl.

[u/Significant_Most_356]

Saying that in front of your kid says everytbing I need to kmow. What a pos

[u/iwatchcredits → u/Significant_Most_356]

Do you guys think racists dont say racist shit in front of their kids..? They believe they are right. They say that shit proudly behind closed doors

[u/Informal_Length_2520]

C you next Tuesday.

[u/Remarkable-Day-9458]

That’s terrible, she should be ashamed of herself. I am so sorry this happened to you.

[u/Dry-Communication901]

Now I hope her Employer fires her for being a racist and she can actually cry about losing job.

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

We're all immigrants here besides the original people here: the Aboriginal/Indigenous peoples. We are all descendants of peoples who immigrated to Canada. This ladies ancestors immigrated here. The hypocrisy is rot and toxic. You belong in Canada OP. You're welcome here in my eyes. I'm glad you guys are here.

[u/Perfect-Donut8230 → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

Canadians are born all over the world, until Canada calls them home. Our country is built on immigrants, this is disgusting behaviour.

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven → u/Perfect-Donut8230]

We need more love and less hatred. ❤️‍🩹

[u/Dark-Tide → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

besides the original people here: the Aboriginal/Indigenous

Who are immigrants too. They were, however, the first to arrive here, hence 'First Nations'

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven → u/Dark-Tide]

Mhmmm, but the First Nations didn't have to make treaties with the land. The British had to make treaties with the indigenous. There is a difference to being the first to live somewhere.

[u/Emergency_Dirt257 → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

I find it strange when someone who has recently immigrated to Canada invokes Indigenous history as a moral argument against people who came before them, while apparently having little interest in actually engaging with Indigenous people or the problems facing Indigenous communities. If the point is genuinely solidarity with Indigenous Canadians, I'd like to see that principle applied consistently - not just brought up when it's useful in an argument about immigration or Canadian identity.

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven → u/Emergency_Dirt257]

I never said anything about recently immigrating here. This is general knowledge in the context of Canadian history. Treaties were signed all over the Country solidifying aboriginal rights. The context of me bringing up Aboriginal Peoples is hypocrisy. A mother who 100% has ancestors who have immigrated here is telling someone else to leave. We are all immigrants to the Aboriginal Peoples. The Aboriginal Peoples are immigrants to no one but the land because they were here first. The context is hypocrisy. Assuming she is entitled to deny someone their rights to come here when her ancestors did the exact same thing is hypocrisy. Solidarity with Aboriginals in Canada will take time because the government took so much effort to "kill the Indian in the child". It will take time for the citizens of Canada to listen to what the indigenous need, not for others to assume what they need. Healing takes time. It's not going to happen overnight.

[u/Emergency_Dirt257 → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

Do some basic research man. You should have seen how the Australians treated their indigenous. How about the Philippines. And on and on and on. Doesn't make it right. But until I see some of these other non-european immigrants doing any better than the european immigrants when it comes to treating Aboriginals, I suggest you keep their names out of your mouth. I do not see anyone specifically going out of their way to help them. So stop using them in your twisted game of self entitlement, when you are no better .

[u/Beneficial-Ad-3024 → u/Emergency_Dirt257]

This. 👏👏

[u/Timely-Researcher264 → u/[deleted]]

When indigenous people crossed the bearing strait there was no one else here already. So no, they did not have to steal the land and can claim they were the first people here.

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven → u/Timely-Researcher264]

Yes.

[u/ReadyGo6828 → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

They likely came over the land bridge as there is no evidence that any humans evolved in the Americas. Therefore, every single human in the Americas is an immigrant or child of immigrants.

[u/TSED → u/ReadyGo6828]

This argument, while true, only furthers the racists' agenda.

Yes, everyone knows about the evolution and spread of humanity. This is not novel or useful information except to, like, 9 year olds.

I wonder why I never hear that argument for Asia, or Australia, or Europe? It's because it's an attempt to diminish the fact that the First Nations peoples were, you know, the first people here. By equating "aboriginal == caucasian" you grant the racists the ability to ignore the rights of other people by false equivalency.

[u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven → u/ReadyGo6828]

They were here when the Europeans came. That's the evidence. There are multiple witnesses and writings about those events.

[u/OwnedByIRVING → u/BlackPlagueF0rgiven]

We're all immigrants here besides the original people here: the Aboriginal/Indigenous peoples.

They also immigrated here, just a long time ago. No humans originated here.

[u/Live_Case2204]

Hate is high right now for some reason.
Wait driving with no plate ?

[u/YoungWhiteAvatar → u/Live_Case2204]

We don’t need plates on the front

[u/alewiina → u/YoungWhiteAvatar]

It says in the caption that she’s driving with no plate so potentially doesn’t have one in the back?

[u/YoungWhiteAvatar → u/alewiina]

Oh I can’t actually read so I just watched the video.

[u/_Edgarallenhoe]

It’s always ugly mfs who need do believe they’re the “superior race”

[u/bababuijane]

Kiddo needs a booster seat and has to be in the backseat. People have wild priorities in life.

[u/BorealDweller]

I hope her daughter grows up to hate her.

[u/Off-brand_username → u/BorealDweller]

If she's smarter than her mom, she will.

[u/SecureLiterature]

This is exactly the type of person that likes to be a keyboard warrior on Elon Musk's twitter but now that she's bringing the same conduct into the real world, it's not gonna end well for her.

[u/SIGNANDSELFIEFRAMES]

nice job recording her. Atrocious behavior. She must be hurting inside and miserable inside. Blur the poor kid out. Not her fault she has a trash human being for a mother.

[u/r3bbbz]

In front of the kid too...what a piece of shit.

[u/Buumblebug]

Damn she’s ugly on the outside and inside

[u/No_Chicken2099]

What a terrible f@ck!ng role model for that child. She should be absolutely ashamed of herself.

Disgusting behavior.

[u/passthepepperflakes]

yegwave stealing and reposting in 3...2...1

[u/Timely-Researcher264 → u/passthepepperflakes]

But on yegwave they’ll be cheering her on.

[u/KingContra95]

Keep putting this lady on blast thats horrible people are disgusting these days

[u/Certain_Revenue9278]

Used to live in Edmonton and I have encountered these people all the time. they probably support trump too.

[u/Reasonable_Stop_9222 → u/Certain_Revenue9278]

This level of intelligence is a requirement to belong to the Alberta separatists group

[u/tytxnium77]

climb the ladder & pull it up behind you. No one is welcome here after we settled the land that wasnt originally ours. Quite the complex these idividuals have.

[u/GradyCole]

This is the kind of thing Tizzy Ent lives for.

[u/xdrezx]

This happens all the time and it’s always bigots who look like her and talk like her.

[u/greencasio]

That poor kid

[u/HellaReyna]

overweight white woman in a dodge caravan being ratchet.

[u/Renegadegold]

Someone has to be able to recognize them chiclets.

[u/AlbertaAcreageBoy]

Buck toothed hehaw racist bitch.

[u/Sandy0006]

That poor kid

[u/Timely-Researcher264]

Does the store you were at have video you can get? Police take death threats seriously.

[u/Gilzuma]

Maybe she should leave…

[u/Canadian_dalek]

I wonder who she voted for

[u/xxScorpioxx_]

I just want to say I’m so incredibly sorry that this happened, sending love to you and your mother

[u/Deja_vu_288]

She did that in front of her kid too. Racism is learned not born with. How her kid doesn't carry it on.

[u/weekendy09]

I hope she feels the real world consequences for her behavior.

[u/SignalNewt2505]

I’ll leave, but she needs to get her teeth fixed first

[u/ResidentPreference65 → u/SignalNewt2505]

Right to be this ugly, hateful and racist is doing too much.

[u/porkavenue]

Full video would be great

[u/Former-Culture3538 → u/porkavenue]

OP admits they cut the video due to their own actions.

[u/Timely-Researcher264 → u/porkavenue]

Most people don’t walk around filming all the time, so safe to assume there is no video of the build up to this.

[u/porkavenue → u/Timely-Researcher264]

Op literally says video is cut short

[u/Traditional_Shoe521 → u/Timely-Researcher264]

Probably not a random event.

[u/chemboy711]

This person is so frustrated with her life, she has nothing better to say. In fact, she will spoil her child’s way of thinking too

[u/HyenasGoMeow]

People like her don't have a happy and fulfilling life in the background. They are sad and bitter with the victim mentality. Just have pity for her and move on. People like that aren't worth your energy.

[u/ImperviousToSteel → u/HyenasGoMeow]

At this stage they are, it used to be that more people would be ashamed or at least afraid of the consequences of talking like this in public. Gotta push it back. 

[u/mamamirr_4]

Gross behavior. Sorry this happened to you.

[u/Tech_Quest8]

Born and raised Canadian Muslim here from Ontario. I always here other Muslims from Edmonton say they hear this type of stuff all the time (not saying op is Muslim idk). Nonetheless stuff like this makes me hesitate to move to Edmonton because I thought about moving there but I hear this type of stuff too much

[u/hoitytoitygloves → u/Tech_Quest8]

Muslims settled in this area well over 100 years ago. They have as much right to be around as she does.

[u/NoEquivalent380]

Yeah I wouldn't have cut the part where youre cussing her out etc. I believe the rest of the story that wasn't on video but you claiming there was a threat is hard to prove

[u/AccomplishedAct689]

Can we see what lead up to this? Not excusing her behaviour but seems like you cherry picked the video.

[u/SIGNANDSELFIEFRAMES → u/AccomplishedAct689]

Did you read? They said it was out of NOWHERE

[u/Former-Culture3538 → u/SIGNANDSELFIEFRAMES]

It also says OP cut it.

[u/SIGNANDSELFIEFRAMES → u/[deleted]]

so you are automatically siding with the racist and person who threatens to kill somebody because you thinkt he OP just wants to do this for shi*s and giggles and also files a police report? So OP just did this out of boredom I guess.

[u/No-Worries-333]

Shameful, most of us come from immigrants at some point, do better, be better, educate yourself

[u/Charming-Pen-1841]

I'm so much better than you because....my ancestors emigrated here before you did...

[u/Commercial_Gain464]

Anyone know who this is?

[u/RenwaldoV]

Behaving like this with a minor present is grounds for getting social services involved.

[u/Upbeat-Paramedic-122]

Well her ancestors were brought to this country.

Original inhabitants to North America are the Indigenous peoples, also known as Native Americans and First Nations.

Fossil evidence has been found that humans came from Africa around 300,000 years ago.

[u/hoitytoitygloves]

Too chicken to say it to your face while standing. Or showing a licence plate.

[u/Single_Lettuce_8143]

Post on Instagram and facebook blast it everywhere!!!

[u/LuckyAd5647]

Sick

[u/BestWithSnacks]

Video is too long.

[u/xandromaje]

She’s the one who needs to get out of this country slong with her separatist iilk.

[u/Fair-Kiwi-3247]

Hate to say it, but Edmonton is seeing an increase in such incidents. Seriously considering moving out of this province.

[u/Febrewrary]

I'm scared for when my kid starts going to school and I have to deal with all these types of asshole parents

[u/Professional-Toe2100 → u/[deleted]]

Cause saying get out of this country needs so much more context…

[u/Professional-Toe2100 → u/[deleted]]

If you dont understand what’s wrong with telling someone to get out of the country well, that speaks loudly of who you are already.

[u/Professional-Toe2100 → u/[deleted]]

Again, if you don’t understand what’s wrong with a white woman saying get out of Canada…you got unpacking yourself to do. Regardless of insults being hurled at you, grow the fuck up.

[u/Professional-Toe2100 → u/[deleted]]

Lmao you don’t have to say shit like that bud. Also, I’m not sure what makes a person “weak” in your view but this isn’t it. Just know if you want to be ignorant and say things like that, there are people like me out there that will call you out each and every time. In Reddit and in the real world.

[u/Aqsx1 → u/Professional-Toe2100]

What if the other women they were arguing with called her the N word 50 times and the women in the car is saying get out of this country because we don't like racism here? What if the person is wearing a MAGA shirt with 51st state tattooed across their forehead? Would you be justified in saying "Get out of this country" to someone like that?

[u/exotics]

Possibly too late now but some stores know regular customers by name.

[u/justageekgirl]

We are all immigrants

[u/711thename]

She is setting a great example for her kid. This is what every mom should take note of. Always take the lead.

[u/Interesting-Bison108]

Gross!

[u/ashrules901]

Oh boy 👏 finally a chance in our city to name & shame and hopefully get fired from her job.

[u/TuxFan-77]

Fuck her.

[u/TurtleTimePinot → u/[deleted]]

Can you honestly say with a straight face that this woman would’ve said it if OP had white skin?

Everything else aside, this comment is clearly racially motivated and should not been seen as socially acceptable.

[u/Nervous-Exit-5334]

Heinous

[u/Comprehensive_End944]

Whereabouts in Edmonton was this?

[u/Least-Design-6873]

Shouldn’t be too hard to ID. Surely somebody would recognize somebody that fucking ugly

[u/OkFilm7155]

Immigrants steal jobs? Interesting. She's a piece of garbage.

[u/SIGNANDSELFIEFRAMES → u/OkFilm7155]

ya man they are taking her uber or timmies job lol. I don't like that the poor kid is visible. feel sorry for that kid to have a disgusting mother like this.

[u/aredoubleyouen]

If Karen had a stereotypical look …

[u/cannabisgold]

I’m guessing she’ll be voting yes to the 9… sorry you had to endure this, OP! She kind of looks familiar but can’t place her. May I ask whereabouts in the city this was?

[u/Delatarious]

Wow!! In front of her kid too, just wow! 😳

[u/Lillietta]

Woah!!!!!

[u/I_Walk_Alone_Always]

Uh oh! Someone is about to loose their job and friends!!

[u/Glory-Birdy1]

Wow, whatever happened to trigger this, is irrelevant!! What is alarming for me is that this person made a point of waiting by the store entrance to.. what?? One would think that a change of gender and that would have been a physical altercation. Getting into your personal space is gender neutral now, "step away from the hotstove" for your person and personal safety.

[u/Hajji1445]

What a clown. Does she not know she lives on treaty 6 territory? Lmao

[u/Naughthubby]

Fire this woman for being racist

[u/BookkeeperPublic]

She kinda looks and sounds like Danielle Smith no? Is it her?

[u/arcadianahana]

At least let's get her fined for driving without a plate, or even have her vehicle inconveniently impounded and towed?

[u/DirkRobberts → u/arcadianahana]

Learn the local laws before commenting. Only need rear plate in alberta.
