'Park Ranger Karen' Tells Asian American Family 'You Can't Be In This Country' For Bringing Dog On Hiking Trail

'Park Ranger Karen' Tells Asian American Family 'You Can't Be In This Country' For Bringing Dog On Hiking Trail

Just in time to kick off a new week, we have yet another "Karen" caught on video. This time, the incident occurred in Marin County, California just north of San Francisco.

An Asian man and his family were enjoying a Fourth of July hike in the woods with their little Maltipoo dog when they crossed paths with a woman and her husband, who blocked the path of the man's 11-year-old daughter and began insisting they were breaking the law by having their dog along with them.


When things began to escalate, the woman told the family, "You can't be in this country," before threatening to call police. 

The man caught the incident on video, which he uploaded to YouTube on Saturday.

As the man wrote in the video's caption, their hike had begun totally without issue.

"Everything was fun and friendly. People were saying "Hello" and practicing social distancing by letting others pass when we crossed paths."

They also encountered many other dog owners on the trail.

"Along the hike, we saw several other hikers with their dogs."

But then things took an abrupt turn.

"A lady and her husband were coming up the trail as we were going down... The husband passed, but the lady just stood there. So we continued walking..."
"The lady aggressively stepped in front of our daughter and blocked her path. She began telling our daughter that we were breaking the law."

The encounter escalated to the "Karen" telling the family:

"You can't be in this country... You can't break the law."

One of the Asian man's family members replied:

"Look at your heritage and go back to where your heritage came from."

The man then tells "Karen" to mind her business, whereupon she threatens to call the police.

She then abruptly leaves, seemingly because she's realized she's being filmed. The man specifies that he and his entire family, including his parents, were all born in the United States.

The family has dubbed the woman, who identified herself as Beth, "Park Ranger Karen." As far as anyone knows, she is not a park ranger and had no authority over the park.

On Twitter, people were outraged by "Park Ranger Karen's" racist harassment.









For the record, also included in the man's video is a shot of a sign explicitly permitting dogs on the hiking trail, as long as they're on-leash.

Conservatives Predictably Outraged After Mattel Introduces New Barbie With Type 1 Diabetes

Conservatives lashed out at toymaker Mattel after the company introduced a new Barbie doll with Type 1 diabetes, including an insulin pump and blood sugar tracker—an action they say is "woke" while not understanding the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.

Mattel revealed a new partnership with Breakthrough T1D— formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation—to launch a Barbie doll that authentically represents people living with Type 1 diabetes. The collaboration, Mattel said, ensures the doll “truly captures the community,” including accessories that “accurately reflect the medical equipment” commonly used by individuals with the condition.

MAGA Influencer Charlie Kirk Called Out After Blaming DEI For High Death Toll In Texas Flooding Disaster

Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.

Kirk's comments are reflective of President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
