"Go back to China!"

I was waiting in front of a Batteries+ store for my husband to pick me after I dropped off my vehicle next door to be serviced. A man who was talking to himself walked in my direction. As he was walking towards me, he threw a canned drink to the ground, but it wasn't thrown in my direction. I moved away from him, making no eye contact whatsoever. As I stood waiting for my husband, the man started yelling, "F*cking communist! Go back to China!" He yelled this several times. I ignored him and he eventually left.
