Air Force airman confronted in Starbucks for speaking Spanish: 'It's distasteful'

A bilingual Air Force officer was confronted by a woman who told her she"shouldn't be speaking Spanish."

"You shouldn't be speaking Spanish, that's not what that uniform represents," an unnamed woman told her."It's distasteful." She told the woman to have a nice day and began walking away, when her antagonist barked,"I don't know how you are allowed to wear that uniform."In her Facebook post, Mercado admitted the incident saddened her,"but above all I am disgusted. Even though I wanted to say a lot more I have respect for people and the uniform I wear. That's the best I could do in that situation.""Um, I'm sorry—what!?" she wrote in response to the suggestion.

"Sorry she disrespected you but ignorance comes in different sizes and shapes unfortunately," wrote one woman."You did right—don't [stoop] to their level. Be proud of who you are and represent." "Thanks for keep calm with the ignorance of the ignorant," added another."God bless you and protect our troops from where ever they come."
