A new video that’s going viral on social media shows an angry Target customer throwing merchandise around the store while hurling racist slurs at employees.

The video, which was posted by Twitter user @dechavien and has been retweeted more than 18,000 times, shows a woman berating employees at a Target store using racist language.

“You f*cking sand n*ggers!” the woman yells at the start of the video. “F*cking pieces of sh*t, f*ck all of you… all of you are sh*t!”

A short time later, the woman starts picking up pieces of merchandise and hurling them at other customers.

At this point, a security guard at the store came over to physically restrain the woman. He wrestled her to the ground and handcuffed her while she screamed at him.

“I’ll leave if you let go!” she screamed repeatedly as the security guard tried to get her to calm down.

The Twitter user who posted the video has not responded to questions about where the video was filmed.

Damn she has some serious issues

 

[Hesemonni]

Judging by that short video I feel it's more of a mental issue than a racism issue really.

"When you die you won't even have a fucking ghost!"

Did I hear that right? Wha?

 

[Always-honest]

Drugs? Somewhat retarded?
Anyway... dear lord..

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Crazy ass shit and while I hate that people always leap to mental health to try and explain away racism from certain groups, this lady clearly seems to have some issues.

The whole murdering people in the basement comment...

But I'm wondering, she mentions her son and then goes back to rampaging. Potentially something happened there to trigger this episode?

'Based on little evidence, i believe racism isn't that much of a factor in the situation'

Could be put on a plaque and hung above our buildings. Or we could make it our anthem.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

I feel like I've read this headline a couple of times before.

 

[U2NUMB]

She does not seem right in the head... beyond the obvious racist shit just her behavior to me seems she has some serious mental issues.

Hope she can get some help. Ugly shit coming from her mouth... so I hope its a mental issue.

Like clockwork.

 

[Maximus P]

Somewhere,I'm guessing there is a drug involved here, even if it's just alcohol.I wonder what triggered this incident?

Kinda weird that what I'm assuming are the Security guard's co-workers just stood there and watched their colleague struggle to hand-cuff the woman, i know it says in the description that management refused, but that could have been a lot easier if someone restrained her flailing legs.

 

[Zakalwe]

Y'all fucking wit me, right?

Unless she's just drunk and stupid, she's very, very clearly unhinged.

So yes, this could easily be a mental issue more so.

Like clockwork.

Mental health issues are serious. I know we're all on edge looking out for racist defenders, but sometimes the truth isn't as simple as "they're just a racist".

Again, unless this woman is heavily intoxicated she's very clearly not mentally stable. And even if she is intoxicated she doesn't seem healthy.

 

[Nokagi]

She seems nice.

 

[God Dayumm]

Maybe, but imagine being so racist to the point where it causes you severe mental issues

 

[Maximus P]

Like clockwork.

From the video description

6. I don't think the lady was on drugs, but if she was, she was also mentally ill. She talked a lot about terrorists keeping prisoners in a 'Flesh Cave' down in the basement prior to the video.

 

[aygomyownroad]

"When you die you won't even have a fucking ghost!"

Did I hear that right? Wha?

Well have you ever seen a black ghost?

But in all seriousness I hope she gets the help she needs, she seems to have major issues

 

[ArgyleReptile]

Could it be, possibly, that she was just an angry racist? I mean, I don't want throw any wild theories out there, but...

Or maybe she does have a mental issue...that amplifies her racism...

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

Why the need to judge based on little info?

I see raciscm.
I see mental issues.

Or this. The mental issues doesn't erase the racism.

Or drugs. That speech made me wonder about drugs.

 

[Zakalwe]

What she's saying is racist, no question. Is she racist or is she just crazy and repeating shit? People in the latter category /do/ exist and this woman was apparently spewing some pretty insane stuff along with the horrid racist remarks.

Why the need to judge based on little info?

I see raciscm.
I see mental issues.

Ask those who are judging?

From the video description

Yo, I fucking LOVE the Flesh Cave!
The name is a bit wack, but don't let it fool you. Totes chill atmosphere. Really has its own identity, you know?

Also, you can be mentally ill AND a racist. Like, there's no reason both can't be together.

 

[SMG]

'I'll leave if you let go.' Could make a sick sample.

 

[ponpo]

What set is that guy repping at 0:37

 

[Discotheque]

its clearly both.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

lol..Lil man was having a hard time there geting her cuffed. Nice of the pierced dude suggesting to just let her out of the store..although, she'd probably just go nuts on someone outside anyway. Don't do drugs, kids!

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yeah, she can be both and she most certainly is. Hitting Sand Nigger with that hard er. I've never really bought into the idea that because someone might be mentally ill that they can't also be a racist piece of shit.

They just aren't able to hide it as well, that's literally the only difference between a racist who doesn't have a mental illness and one who does.

 

[kmax]

Drugs? Mentally impaired? I don't know.

Lol.

Every. Fucking. Time.

Is saying sand nigger really racist tho? Really? 🤔

 

[PnCIa]

Mental illness is one hell of a thing.

 

[D4Danger]

Like clockwork.

this seems like one of those times where it clearly is though

 

[Nokagi]

'I'll leave if you let go.' Could make a sick sample.

Did almost sound like she was singing this at one point.

 

[Zakalwe]

Yeah, she can be both and she most certainly is. Hitting Sand Nigger with that hard er. I've never really bought into the idea that because someone might be mentally ill that they can't also be a racist piece of shit.

Someone /can/ be mentally ill to the point they say shit they don't understand, though.

I worked with kids who'd had their brains partially destroyed in traffic accidents. One kid used to say "fuck you bitch" all the time because he'd heard a disgruntled employee say it once. Apparently he'd been saying it for years because someone had laughed when it was said and he thought it was a joke, at least that's what they reasoned.

I'm not trying to defend a racist here before anyone gets stupid, but I'm pretty tired of people downplaying how serious mental health issues can be.

 

[DeSo]

What sane person randomly throws shit around in a store?

She mentions "sandniggers" and her son. She's racist and mentally ill.

But I don't understand the point of these threads. They never go anywhere productive.

 

[J_ToSaveTheDay]

... i--... is this a real question?

That...sounds like a name for a vagina

Ah the good ole using mental illness as a justification for outlandish actions defense. The more people throw around mental illness the more it A. distracts from the actual problem and B. distract from people who may actually suffer from severe mental illness

I'm not trying to defend a racist here before anyone gets stupid, but I'm pretty tired of people downplaying how serious mental health issues can be.

And I'm pretty tired of people immediately using mental illness when anyone acts out like this. Do you not see the problem, both ways, with this happening? No one in here is saying mental illness isn't problem, but that we can't just always throw it around.

 

[JaggedSac]

Along with the mental and racism issues, I think the lady may also be homeless. She appears to not have on any shoes.

 

[Truant]

I'll leave if you let go.

I find this sentence oddly beautiful.

 

[Diablos]

Something's really, really wrong with this person. Quite disturbing to watch.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

... i--... is this a real question?

 

[kitchenmotors]

Some of the posts in this thread, jesus.

Mental health is an issue, but she's clearly racist too.

 

[Sanjuro]

I don't think she is racist, but clearly a Wal-Mart shopper.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

... i--... is this a real question?

Judging from the state of the world, yes.

 

[Grug]

Extreme economic anxiety.

You think a racist can be mentally healthy?
Every racist is mentally ill.
