A woman in the San Francisco Bay Area has been arrested on suspicion of posting handwritten messages at several homes, targeting Asian Americans and suggesting that those not native to the U.S. should leave the country immediately.

Nancy Arechiga, 52, was carrying a backpack containing copies of the same notes, the statement said. She was arrested"for these inappropriate messages that instilled fear and intimidation upon those residents."

Arechiga was taken to Alameda County jail and booked for investigation of committing a hate crime. She was issued a citation and released from custody, another police official, Lt. Ted Henderson, said. Arechiga was told to appear in court, though the date hasn't been set because of the holiday weekend, he said.

Police were also investigating whether Arechiga was responsible for a similar note found Thursday on a local trail. The note partially read,"no Asians allowed, leave immediately."

Time to send that lady to Venezuela just because

Emolclause She has no clue the Natives of this country now live in ‘reservations’ and it is not distant history either. We have photographic evidence from the nineteenth century. Ignorance is not acceptable anymore. No excuses

Emolclause What is wrong with people? You just can’t fix stupid!

These people are sick.

No white people are native to America.

Ppl sick.... don’t have any work?

An obvious false flag operation.

Did she send such notes to Elaine Chao , Mitch McConnell's wife and Melania Trump? Just wondering about which not-born here people should go home?

TrumpTerrorist LockHerUp

If a white Anglo Saxon Brit was to post this on a house in Britain you would say it’s disgusting. What you wouldn’t say is that it’s hilariously laughable. You think you have the right to tell people to go back and NBC, who is not native? Answer: pretty much everyone

Emolclause Did a G$D send her or was it Satan?

Starbucks Corp FABRICATES LIES on paper,tries to BLACKMAILme into signing it and has Security Guard Jon Paul Naranjo from Boyds Security Punch me 7 times in the head for getting proof of the paperwork cus they don't want to be sue'd for destroying my life KevinPerelmanTarget com

'Arechiga'. Hum, sound like a Mexican name.

Bay Area woman? Does she fly a rainbow flag on her house, by any chance? The new racism is that only LGBTQ represent any diversity and without that Red, Yellow, Black does not count for diversity at all. The real hate crime!

So a lady thinks a handwritten note will cause people to pack up their homes and leave the country. What a muppet.

SO I GUESS SHE OWNS THIS COUTRY🤔

Shes the 9ne who's not native to America

That be a Trumpster!

She should take her own advice

Emolclause 1/2 the people are below 100 I.Q. She’s bell curve & empathy challenged.

Trumper Trash ... good to see her get caught. This behavior will not ever be acceptable.

Totally normal, nothing to see here.

MAGA WYLING DA FUCK OUT

Where's the hate crim charge

Democrats at it again

World going crazy. Sad woman. Wonder where her family is from?

Listen they will only hear us when we pull all of our resources and build black and spend black money talks

ANOTHER TRUMPER WITH A USA TOSSEL CAP. Trump’s next medal of valor recipient.

Kick her out

wtf is wrong with people? So hateful

I blame the parents.

Enough of this racist trash! Lock up every single one of them for HATE CRIMES! This is disgusting and they need to be held accountable! EnoughIsEnough

Just wrong

Karening is strong nowadays.

California let’s see Asians circa 1861 building railroads that helped the current Pre Trump economy make that state an economic engine in the world. How can she be sure she’s not addressing their Ancestors. White pride can be so privileged & ignorant. Sad 😢

Cali is a lawless place.

Asianlivesmatter

This is why it’s so important to remove trump from office. Regardless of political affiliation as president, it is imperative that discriminatory actions not be deemed acceptable. We need people who will enforce a no tolerance for this behavior. We’re all at risk

When listening to intrusive thoughts goes wrong

Wow Nancy is an even more appropriate name for a Karen

This is the real truth that media distorts. Like a few bad cops, America has a 'few' bad citizens. But the DNC controlled media makes it seem like 'everybody' in America does these things. And they always blame 'Conservatives', Its time for it to stop.

She should be a Native American and she has a lot of power.

😳 OMGOODNESS! Who are these people?!

Another goddamn Karen. Is this the week of the Karens or something?

There are ignorant people everywhere, in every culture and every race , they don’t represent how most people are and implying it represents a deeper reality is what causes resentment and divisions.

Undercover Karen.

Woman arrested for 'inappropriate messages' FreeSpeech 1A

Emolclause White people aren't native to the U.S....

Another example of the Trump EFFECT.

This is probably who Trump would have liked to be Secretary of State

whew these european immigrants are something TF else. the NERVE. mind your damn business. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

👎😠

Amazing how one stupid person doing something stupid makes national news. It really sucks that y'all are nothing more than propaganda producers.

these charges should be thrown out real fast - She was arrested 'for these inappropriate messages that instilled fear and intimidation upon those residents.' 'Inappropriate messages' 😂

Bahaha

These people should loose their H.S. Diploma’s and any college degrees. They should have to go back to school and learn all over again.

This seems staged.... Like Chicago, 18 below zero, on their way to grab Subway sandwiches staged...

LOL

So just the native Americans to left in America then?

When most of these racist people are in the police force ...Irony

About time!

I wonder who she voted for.

Interesting considering we are a country of immigrants.

'And was born in other [sic] country'...

Nancy Arechiga part of Reconquista?

Origin of our country is based on different races & they all by coming together made this country great.. We can not tolerate this super heinous crime done by those holding power. People who tarnish glory of this nation must be punished by death sentences. Hope u allwill agree

What’s wrong with these people!? .. I’m glad they arrested her!!

That’s messed up

Think we’re getting Smolletted. I bet it’s a liberal dressed up in republican face.

tammy_dreyer Trump's fault killer

I wish the fake Americans would leave The Real Americans alone

Please keep her locked up in a small jail cell.

Spike9151 Just feel the love!! LOL

So only NATIVE Americans have a right to be here? I whole heartily agree. All the rest of us are immigrants. Why can’t people see that?

Congratulations on giving her free publicity and a rallying pole for racists. Why doesn't mainstream news do something constructive, like talk about climate change or how corrupt our political system is?

Just another Karen spreading the hate

Disgusting behavior.

She clearly don't know what it means to be u.s. citizen.

This woman should be stripped of US citizenship even she was born in America and kick out, so she can learn a lesson the hard way.

American Indians were here first. Leave, white men!

This racism never stops. She should be put in jail.

When is she leaving? I doubt she is native.

Are the Karens ok? They seem to have a moment...

When is she leaving?

Hmmm what should I do today? Oh, I know! I’ll go door to door harassing people with my ignorant, racist, hate letters! Yay

Funny..... she doesn’t appear to be Native American.

More identity politics reporting stirring the divide in our country

Unless this woman is Native American, she should leave the country. She should take her own advice. We need to stop this hatred and racism in this country.

Where is her mugshot If she were a black person who had just been murdered by the cops we would’ve already seen her mugshot posted.

Good article from the racial foment desk

Democrat setting up False Flag to smear MAGA.

Where do these ppl get off doing this crap? This is not the American way. But this IS what happens when someone pretending to be president lies and spews hatred.

s://facebook.com/102086097929018/posts/168885071249120?d=n&sfns=mo

Trump supporters 🤦‍♂️

This white, liberal voter really hates people who don't look like her.

When did it become a crime to state your opinions stupid or not! This is still America a free country !

who is native to america ? indigenous people! so she needs to leave as well...

Oceans 11- level tactics to disguise and evade.

Racist nutjobs live in every state, every city. They invaded this land, swarmed in like locusts in the 18-20th centuries. They came from Europe.

Sounds like MAGA

If all immigrants left America the economy would go into free fall. The service industry would fall apart. The medical profession would not function. She would have to grow her own food.

Welp I hope she has packed her bags too

I really hope we get somebody else in the White House so all the racists can go back into hiding. The orange clown not only accepts racism, he encourages it!

jfc trump exposed the cockroaches. It’s definitely better to know, but were they at least civil before he showed up? Or does that matter?

?

gritslady What or should I say, who gave her the right to target Asian Americans or any American? We MUST vote that person out of office. This has gone too far, ENOUGH!

Think she hit up Zuckerburg’s place?

Let me guess...Trump supporter.

Her name Arechiga is Basque so much for go back to your own lands

Then she should leave we all should leave and give it back to the Native Americans it is us who r the trespassers

❤😍

This is racism, neo nazism and fascism.

Does she not understand that she too would be packing her bags?

Why are the mentally ill so drawn to racism?

the majority of Americans come from an immigrant background, only native americans are on their ancestral land

This is all Trump's doing with the 'send them back' chants and divisive rhetorics. It's all racist, no other word for it.

That woman is not native to the US.

But the cop that killed the guy by kneeling on his neck did not get arrested

Lady why stop with AsianAmerican Why not yourself ? I'm guessing you descendant of the colonizers, By your own thinking 'not native' it would apply to you Honestly these ignorant people like point finger at everyone but themselves... Dumbness of highest order

triketora Is anyone going to point out that her last name suggests she is not an indigenous person and, by this logic, should technically go back to where *she* came from? 😬

No mention that she is a democrat and she was doing it to make republicans look bac? What should I expect from fake news?

RiskyLiberal Great news! Glad they found and arrested her. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Fucking Karen!

I hate stupid people.

Magacaine is a helluva drug.

kierstea1 Funny thing is, native Americans actually came from Asia.

SantiagoOfDC Anna Karenina.

WTF is the matter with people? It's a damn pandemic and they out here behaving like clowns.

kenklippenstein The Karen network is everywhere! Karen is the true Deep State!!!!

We should eat our own food and shit our own shit.

BigBrain1234 Then she should lead the pack. According to her, only Native Americans should stay.

Where is the electronic image of the note that accompanies this “news story”? It’s 2020. My phone can view images. This is NBC with some credibility issues as a result of “editing mishaps”

Unconscionable!

Census taker?

Good job, keep up the hate. I am delighted!

Did they post her name yet?

I am so tired of that. If she is not a Native Indian, her ancestors were not born in the USA either. They did not made it in Europe and were hoping for a better life in the USA. Who she thinks she is? Unbelievable. Foreign students should not go to the USA anymore.

Bitch better start oacking cuz she most definitely is not a natives to the Americas

guibassTM Is she counting herself as those not native to America? When is she leaving?

Was she included in that list? Europeans weren't natives! 🙃

Ignorant people coming out of the woodwork, under rocks, gown from the ground!

She's scum

Let's all move, our ancestors are from all over the glove. America is a place for people to come from any country theywant to. There is no such thing as white America. Crazy

And you are a.... Native American

out 'Black Man...' by Blue Turban Stone -

Hey Asians.. welcome to our world, Sincerely...Black Americans

Making America Suck

Mental illness is rife in America.

ScarletM1926 So native americans are of asian and Russian decent via the land bridge that once connected our continents, sounds to me like she should be the one leaving according to her own words

What is the funniest part? her name is reported as Nancy Arechiga - which is a Mexican heritage name. Gotta love the pecking order of racism, I guess.

She lives in the Bay area so Californians know for sure she is a liberal just like the NY dog person.

Really?! And during Asian heritage month?!

Maybe she should learn San Francisco history and how there initially came to be a heavy Asian population.

GADEMIT

Honestly what is wrong with people... it baffles me that someone can hate so much based off of something that we don’t even get to pick or choose ourselves.

PO 💩 MAGAts

Thats real brave of her doing it in a hat and sunglasses. YOU LIVE IN A GODDAMN DEMOCRATIC STATE!!! Go to Norway i hear folks are really white their. Dont know if they'll take you though. They probably don't accept trash dumped on their front lawn.

And where is Ms. Arechiga from?

Karen’s keep karening...🤷🏽‍♀️ But never know when billy has a bedroom full of Ammo to shoot up his high school 🤔.

Lord, its the fuckn internment camp propaganda shit all over again. Its like a select few... VERY FEW believe that when Americans go through problems. Its not the leaders running the damn country to blame, its the neighbor going through the same shit.

White woman targeting Asian Americans. White woman called cops on Black American. White cop killed black American. So whites are racists that is the meaning you are trying to convey. Irony is Democratic presidential candidate joe biden is also a racist.

Serial Karen's now WTF?

Where the hell was Nancy born?

The privileged race at its finest

Native American is Indians

Hate crimes should be condemn as a terrorism acts.

She would have to leave too, unless she is an American Indian

🤮

A racist deplorable doing her duty to generate hate and intolerance. Such people have been empowered by Trump, their hero.

I'm betting she's a Susan!

Круто!

Does she count as a Karen too?

Flipping Karens are everywhere. Is this what happens when you mix GenX white girl with hydroxychloroquine and bleach?

Oh for gods sakes, another KAREN!

What else- another black criminal. Get busy Corona!

MinneapolisPoliceMurderdHim

Crazy Ass!!

So is that classified as a hate crime? Or just casually leaving some post-its on the homes of Asian Americans? No need to white wash it

See! I told ya it isn't always the crazy white dude doing crazy sh*t!!

Right. Never mind those pesky Indians who were here first.

She was arrested, and will have to deal with the consequences of her actions. Serious question: How is this different than when Trump told people to 'go back to their own country'?

Probably needs medical mental help. It is sad to see how Trump & rightwing encourages excessive mental anxiety in troubled people.

What CRIME did she commit ? I agree what she said was disgusting, but what CRIME did she commit ?

U.S.A. is in North America for around 250 years. The only native Americans are American Indians.

TrumpersMakeMeAshamedToBeWhite

Not very nice, but thise cops violated her rights and need to be fired and sued.

Lol what an idiot again why is this national news

Is it surprising that racism is more pronounced in The US lately? The Karen's have a grand patron who is the chief instigator and is 'the best thing to ever happen to America' in a long while. You need not wonder again how Hitler was able to do all he did.

WTF is wrong with people

Anti-asian racism committed by a white person puts them in an awkward position. They've always been hesitate to criticize white people.

Somehow she sees white people as native🤦🏾. Also, what are the chances of her doing something worse after that $0 bail!

alllocalpolitic I hope that they charge her with terrorism.

Racism almost like the 50s and 60s President does nothing? Go figure

suepeac White woman have gone full out KKK since trump's been in office. I had no idea. How do u fix a country planted and fertilized in racism?

With Trump in office, every MAGAT feels like they are government - they can make their own pronouncements on others

isn’t she the minority in CA? 😂😆

Looks like the racists are breakin’. Keep up the pressure. Call it out. Vote.

News is never a coincidence. Creating hate and fear is how you keep the masses confused and angry. Back to your regular scheduled “Programming”

Please don’t tell us her name is Karen.

Phuc yu, Kalen.

Arrested? Cuntish or otherwise, I thought we had a 1st Amendment.

GOOD! Bigot.

She did a shitty thing, but what was she arrested for? The letters contained no threats that would rise to a criminal nature.

White people don't have a place to call their own or land. Period.

Karen pretends to be your landlord to post eviction a note on your door.

trump stooges on the loose!!!!!

Dont get intimidated

She should start leaving first and then expect others who aren’t native to the USA.

ROTTEN VILE MOFO.

kenklippenstein So she should leave? She sure as hell isn’t a Native American

If you or your ancestors arrived here by boat from any other nation, no matter how long ago it was, you do not belong here & this is NOT your land white man. That being said, we are here now so why can we not simply live in peace? Why so much hatred over ethnicity & skin color?

America is so f’d up.

Considering Asian American in bay area usually working at tech giants with attractive pay, maybe this Karen living on Asian American's tax.

My god, the woman lives in the nicest place on earth. Why can’t she just relax and enjoy it? Racism is a blight.

She will apologise tomorrow, after she loses her job, her house and her dog.

NBC “News”. Always on the big stories for us as a public service. I’m reality, this network is a non-essential business. In fact, it is is detrimental to every American citizen. But REALLY in favor of illegals though. Garbage.

The hero we needed by don't deserve.

Chinese will be targeted more in any place of the world.

What exactly is not native to the US? The great thing about this country is anyone. From any nationality can come here. And make something of themselves.

BELONGS IN THE NUT HOUSE

kenklippenstein Someone knows this woman. Someone is her neighbor, family member, coworker, acquaintance .... they should speak her name. Shame her for her actions. Nothing less will stop these people.

She’s Mexican!🤣🤣🤣

what ethnicity is Arechiga

There won’t be many people left if everyone leaves but the natives.

Well you can blame the orange buffoon for that one.😉😎😉😎😉😎😉😎

So it was a Hispanic woman attacking Asians for being in America. Could of seen that happening. So much racism from Hispanics. Can not begin to count all the times my kids or wife experienced racism when we over in San Diego.

Alex, I would like to solve the puzzle. K.A.R.E.N

San Leandro....not shocking.

3wombats So unless this woman is Native American (seems unlikely) she better start packing her bags.

In which syllabus is Karen a native American?! As in indigenous by right and not by birth only ...

to that person

Love how they are not identifying her race. Which means

kenklippenstein Crazy that she’s so white/American and yet doesn’t know proper English- the *supposed* language of this country. (Except it’s not- the US has no official language). She’s such a hypocrite- that letter is riddled with horrible grammar and spelling. What a racist phony.

GOOD!!!

A mentally ill person who needs to be locked up against her will

America thrives on this hate. It is good for the economy and politicians. Shameful.

So a Latin lady harassing asians.

kenklippenstein dum dum

fvck these GD karens

Doesn't look, like a native american. She isn't native either. Why doesn't she leave the USA too?

In an ironic twist she finds out that Chinese have been here since the 1840’s and her family arrived in the 1860’s.

Lol idiot

R A C I S M A C 💔 I 💔 S M S I C A R Everywhere. Everyday. Everyway.

Just like the CentralParkKaren, this one will also turn out to be a Democrat. DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica

Mental illness is a terrible thing

Bring back the mental institutions.

Based on the way the women’s notes were written it doesn’t sound like she was the brightest bulb.

Recently native or like native over 200 years ago? What about those of us with mixed cultures? Should I go to Scotland, Wales or Ireland?

realDonaldTrump are you proud of what your leadership has begotten? You have let loose hate and racism and displayed lack of empathy. Your job now is to Resign

WHO does she think she is?! Who anointed, pointed her, to be the person she thinks can do this ?! I do not understand

Can't be racist if she's black.. We've established that already

Gopers! Please get some education. Trump is making you dumber and dumber.

50 years for that trumpet!

Nope. Don't believe that

Oh my god so much racism

And karen strikes again....

Really bad day for racists.

Area Man So Sick Of Having To Explain Family Members’ Political Views To ThemCANTON, IL—Complaining that their ignorance of their very own beliefs has annoyed him for most of his life, local man Arthur Brody told reporters Wednesday that he was sick of having to explain his family members’ political views to them. “I just get tired of telling my so-called libertarian brother that if he likes the police department and the military and highways, then, guess what, he likes socialism too,” said Brody, 34, adding that he had grown weary of informing his self-described progressive in-laws that their refusal to embrace single-payer healthcare and their support for sending more troops to Afghanistan placed them squarely in the centrist camp. “Everybody else in the family just sits there listening to each other’s opinions, leaving it to me to speak up and let them know what they really stand for. I’m always the one to tell my mother that her views on immigration resemble fascism far, far more than any notion of center-right conservatism, but, of course, I never get a thank-you.” At press time, Brody was no longer in the position of having to explain his family member’s views as they refused to talk to him about politics entirely.
