A woman was arrested for a hate crime after she punched a 6-year-old Korean boy while spewing racist speech just outside a shopping center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Following the woman's violent attack on the child, the boy's mother followed her into the mall to film her continuing rant.

The video, which was originally posted to TikTok, later surfaced on Twitter, where it has gone viral.

People who saw the clip, which showed the woman screaming unintelligible things about "China" before turning around and being escorted away by mall security, voiced pure outrage.






Others excused the woman's behavior citing mental health struggles or chemical dependency.

However disability rights advocates point out though mental illness and substance abuse might lessen inhibitions, neither transforms people into racists.

Racism should not be blamed on mental illness or addiction as it stigmatizes people diagnosed with either and excuses the perpetrator's racist beliefs.




According to NextShark, who spoke with the boy's mother, her son is "shaken up but is doing okay."

The family—the boy, his mother and his sister—called the police and waited with supportive sales representatives until police arrived.

The mother described how shocked her husband was when he saw her reaction.

"He said he had never seen us that angry before and hopes we never get that angry with him. It startled him so much to see us that way—I can't imagine how traumatized he would be if we actually got physically violent."

The suspect, identified as Shelly Hill, has been charged with battery and a hate crime. She is being held on $3,000 bail and must appear in court this Sunday, Yahoo! News reported.

The boy's mother told NextShark she expects it to take some time for the whole family to move past what happened.

We hope the family finds nothing but peace.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
