A California waitress is being hailed a hero after coming to the defense of a family who was being targeted in a racist rant. The waitress threw the man, Michael Lofthouse, who is said to be the CEO of a tech startup, out of the restaurant after he went on a rant against a family saying they “need to leave” and called them “Asian piece of s***.” The rant, which has now gone viral, occurred in Carmel, and for reasons unknown, the man targeted the Asian American family. #InsideEdition

He's not a tech CEO anymore. He resigned a week later. He won't be getting any meaningful jobs ever again

He isn't sorry for being racist. He's sorry because it was filmed and he was exposed to millions of viewers.

He only apologized because he got caught. He's a monster.

Even a waitress has higher consciousness than a CEO. What a glaring difference. The world is a much better place because of people like her.

he only apologised because he was identified, not bc he was sorry.

Good for her - standing up for others is a real sign of a good character!

He only apologized because he was identified. What a horrible person.

He didn't lose control. He showed his true colours

A lot of people would have chosen to remain as bystanders.She is an angel for standing up fiercely to that ill behaved entitled brat in what was even not her fight. Her message for people to be kind to waitresses in pandemic shows how kind she is. Wishing her the very best in life 💐

He ment every word, you can't hide being a racist for so long, and it's gonna come out, he only apologized because they found out who he is, and if he's a business owner, he knows his business will suffer. He is not sorry, he's sorry for being caught. .

If it wasn’t caught on camera he would’ve never apologized
@claudiaserna6918 3 years ago

He later went on a racist tirade on instagram that SAME day, so no, he wasn’t sorry.

That guy has hate in his heart.

Apologizing for being caught is different than saying it truthfully my hearts out to that family and kudos to the waitress 🎉

“I lost control of my racist tendencies” is what he should have said

Look at him eating alone. He was jealous that he doesn’t have a family to eat with!!

Some people don't know how to mind their own business. A miserable man watching a family had a great time.

I’m not sure I could’ve restrained myself if that happened in front of me.
