(WATCH) Video Of Asian Nail Salon Owner Attacking Black Woman Prompts Black Man To Threaten “You Keep Your Hands Off My Queens” BUT Is There More To This?

by | Apr 6, 2017 | News, Opinion | 1 comment

So the video went viral showing what appeared to be an Asian nail salon owner holding down a black woman who had come in to complain about a previous nail job gone bad. The video created all sorts of anger, especially a rising anger against Asian store owners, often assumed to be ‘Korean’, who run many businesses in black communities.

This prompted a black man to enter the salon to confront the owner and try to show that he would be tough with a black woman but not a black man, and threatening that the store owner should “Keep Your Hands Off My Queens”.

Now, the owner has another side of the story and security footage seems to back him up. He says the woman entered the store and attacked a member of his staff. He then held her down until police came, that’s his side and he says he has proof on video. He also mentioned he has a pregnant wife in the store and he didn’t want to take chances that anything would happen to her.

Let’s try and be objective here. A man attacking a woman is never ok. Black women are subject to bullying and abuse at the hands of society and the black community is harboring a lot of anger towards the Asian community who seem to be sweeping up many small businesses and basically running the industries black men and women frequent.

BUT we need to be objective. The viral video, the news report and the video of the black man confronting the owner can be seen below. I would love to hear your thoughts on this:

    This was all so unnecessary. The Owner should have called the police immediately when the woman came back in acting like a crazy person. Let her be arrested and charged. The man who came after the fact was also out of control and totally ridiculous.
