Her family owns one of the few Asian restaurants in the area, a Thai/Vietnamese place called Hue, and has had to deal with some awful people and harassment. They've been robbed five times this year, and someone just ran in and stole the tip jar the other day.
They've put up with a lot of hooligan-ass crap, but this racist Craigslist she just found out about was apparently the last straw:
Seriously? The cat-eating stereotype? This Craigslist troll is really going to go there? And to what end? Whoever the hell it is, they've got a chip on their shoulder, just starting shit because they think Asian restaurants are easy targets. In America, any idiot can accuse an Asian restaurant of filthy food practices -- going as far as accusing the restaurant of serving cats -- and unfortunately, someone who doesn't know any better is bound to believe it because these prejudices and stereotypes are rampant. It's grossly unfair.
