A Bangladeshi-American went ballistic after another shopper made racist comments to him at a Queens supermarket, a wild new video shows.
The bizarre confrontation happened Saturday at Food Bazaar Supermarket on Northern Boulevard when the Bangladeshi-American switched checkout lines because one moved faster, according to a posting on the video-sharing website LiveLeak.
A white man, who had been in line in front of the line switcher, took umbrage at the move, yelling out, “Go back to your green card!,” according to LiveLeak footage.
That sent the Bangladeshi-American over the edge.
“I am a citizen of this country, do you understand?!” the Bangladeshi-American man screamed in the video, shot by his daughter. “Go back to your country, motherf–ker!”
He continued: “You go back to your country, a–hole, a–hole, a–hole! You go back to your own country! This is my country!”
A voice off camera, perhaps a store employee, tried to calm the angry immigrant.
“OK, he’s wrong, he’s wrong about what he said,” the female voice said.
On LiveLeak, the man’s daughter defended her pop: “YOU CAN’T KEEP QUIET AND LET THE OTHER PERSON GO WHEN YOU HEAR SUCH THINGS. As you can tell, there are people like him in the society, but never let them say such hateful things.”
