Another episode of racism against Hispanics causes outrage after being broadcast on the Internet.

A woman attacked Esteban Guzmán, 27, a California state gardener, yelling at him from behind his back calling the Mexicans "drug traffickers, rapists, and animals." The insults are accompanied by a sign that the woman makes with her middle finger placing it just centimeters from Guzmán's face.

"Why do you hate us? Asks Guzmán. "We are honest people here."

"Because they are Mexicans," the woman replies with a laugh.

"Yes, they are rapists and animals: drug traffickers, rapists and animals," he exclaims. "Even the President of the United States says so."

Guzmán posted the video on his Facebook profile on Saturday, and has since gone viral.

According to local people, they told Buzzfeed, Esteban Guzmán is an immigrant who works even until the weekends at his brother's landscaping company to support his family.

"They were working at a new client's house in Running Springs, about 80 miles east of town when the woman approached her mother and started yelling," They're all illegal."

"I have dealt with racism for over 25 years, but I have never seen anyone yell at my mother like that," Guzmán told Buzzfeed. "I was very shocked because they were yelling at my mother."

In a moment, you can hear Guzmán's mother, who recorded the video, speaking in Spanish, saying to her son, "Tell him what he's seeing …". She was immediately interrupted by the woman, apparently mocking her saying, "blah blah blah blah."

Guzmán said he was particularly impressed by the woman's choice of words, which reminded him of the anti-immigration rhetoric used by President Donald Trump, who referred to Mexican immigrants as "rapists" and criminals in his speech announcing his candidacy for the 2016.
