He's not truly sorry, he's a Trump supporting racist that is to stupid to understand that he is also being f-ed by Trump.

Liberals are the worst. They are the real racists.

no comments was there!he is waiting for his food!only fault ofhis is that he was in that area& no other restaurant was there!he found people talking loudly & saying something absurd.he started looking at them.when they started insulting him he showed a finger like friends!

In San Francisco of all places. His career is probably over.

He needs to be deported...

Why isn’t he fired yet?

LOL As per Liberal cancel culture rules...when will he be leaving the company?

That's good move

Republicans hard at work showing us how they’re not the party of racists.

Image what he says in private

What company does he work?!!

Democrats gonna democrat

Hey look, another racist Brit. And a Trump loving one at that. Quelle surprise.

I appreciate that didn't beat around the bush with the headline and accurately described this person's disgusting act accurately and concisely. Keep it up!

Have to love how they all apologize only after they've brought the weight of the world upon themselves. Apology is unaccepted.

Of course you've read this:

PRESIDENT BEST WORDS SMART BRAIN SAYS VERY FINE PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES !!!

Mental illness?

I wonder if before he opened his mouth, he was like, 'you know what, I feel like getting fired today.'

Republicans gonna republican.

IAmSophiaNelson No excuse for the racist rant. Too much hate/resentment against “others” in this country. I’m glad he apologized but that’s not going to erase what he said. We need to deal with this as a country.

'We asked an advocacy group that's a front for the CCP if hate crimes against Asians are on the rise!' We have a video where a white guy says 'Asians!' and something about a white lady on a dog trail. Hate crimes! Believe us! Don't believe your eyes!

Trump’s fault

I guess he was fed up with his job and career😂😂😂

The irony. An immigrant.

Creep.

Too late to fucking apologize. He is who he is. The restaurant did a great job 👏👏👏

Oh great news they identified this loser n

Everybody is wound up by this whole corona thing, maybe don't judge people for their racist outburst so quickly. PS: I totally flipped out today on plastic bag, even though it didn't deserve it. That's not normal behavior, in not normal times 🤔

He looks like Jordan Peterson's walleyed brother

IAmSophiaNelson I need closure. I want to see Michael Lofthouse dealt with. He is one smug racist filth. The turnaround time is taking too long.

Apparently, this isn't his first racist rant

And he think just saying I am sorry fixes his stupidity

Can't wait til my next trip to England so that I can tell off some Brits to get out of the country and go back to where they came from.

He is the sick minded kind of people who support Trump.

His apology denied!

His business made like 30k last year, stop calling him a CEO.

Why nonone help and closed its stupid mouth

If he's a trump supporter, he was simply keeping with his core values. Trump supporters should not be allowed to sit next to trees.

racism

I don’t appreciate his apology. Lofthouse needs to lose his job, or be boycotted in Ca. His apology is because he realized what was going to happen to him as this reached the public. Sorry.. not sorry.

white people think they are soooo superior. makes me sick

Keep on Race-baiting you media hacks..

oh man, unrecognized America.

Everytime I look at these evil people it shows on their face that they look like the demon 😈

His apology was hollow and flat, done only to save his company with bad P.R.

Apologize all you want. That does not just come out of your mouth without having given it some thought in your life. He’s apologizing because it’s become public. He would not apologize otherwise!

He only apologized bc he was caught on video.

Keep exposing these pieces of shit until they understand that this behavior in unacceptable.

He's obviously dining alone for a reason. RacistLoser

More like former felon, owner of tiny 1 person consulting company with gross yearly revenue of 29k, that provides old school cloud services.

RacismInAmerica

Poor family having to deal with that racist.

PoliticalCorrectness is BAD! He’s just telling it like it is, just like me! No blumpkins for kungflu family or server. NOT ONE! 1stAmendment FreeSpeech

Karma is a bitch. And it will catch up with Mr MichaelLofthou4

He said 'Trump is gonna f**k you' And I can't think of a more disgusting horrible thing you could tell a person is gonna happen to them

props to that server!!! She was awesome

Way out of line.

Keep outing yourselves racists.

Ryan Gosling?

❤❤❤❤

His brother’s wife is Asian. Awkward

看起来人模狗样的,实际上恶心🤢🤢🤢🤢

That's what he says in public, imagine what he says in private ?

How come Lofthouse deleted his solid8 (newly minted) Twitter account? I wanted to gently suggest that he consider that his shallow apology is part of the problem. Solid8LLCBankruptcy solid8

His own mother he was a drunk and out of control. His clients are google starbucks kpmg boeing LinkedIn

Mfer

Typical Democrat....

Are these people unaware that EVERYONE has a camera on their phone?

British CEO has heaped shame on the UK after he launched vile racist abuse at an Asian family yelling 'Trump is going to f*** you', f***ing Asian piece of s**t' His name: Michael Lofthouse, a UK-born founder of tech company Solid8, BOYCOTT HIM AND HIS COMPANY!

Anyone who goes out to eat by themselves are already creeps. This guy gives those guys a worse name.

This guy's own apology is next level... 'I am appalled'? Really? Cuz you're the one that said it. Like he gets drunk and can't possibly be aware of the words he's uttering.

LMFAO!!

To be clear, you can't swing a cat in California and not hit a tech company CEO...

Defund the racist ceo

Another racist referencing trump in the middle of a tirade... draw your own conclusions.

Why do they apologize? I personally find it empty! Just like their souls! Just like realDonaldTrump's soul. I hope this ass, loses his job. He behaved badly! Unless his job likes racists working there. *shrugs*

After seeing this video realDonaldTrump was angry the server threw him out..

What an ass...

To easy...it offends someone to apologize for the next day to curse again ... you should lose where it hurts in your pocket

video shows the man has no fear, no shame to speak out his belief

And he's not even American. Apparently, he's a handful, according to his mother.

He should be fired. He can't handle a business with that mindset anyway. I know some amazing Asians. They are intelligent and wise.

His board should fire him.

“Go back to whatever f—— Asian country you’re from” - As he gets up. 🤣 “You don’t belong here.” - As he leaves 🤣😀

everybody is accountable for their actions

Give the waitress who stood up to Lofthouse a raise.

These people need to learn to mind their own dam business. In this case, sitting in a restaurant by yourself doesn’t give you the go ahead to go ‘look at ME!!! - I’m a racist pig!’

Oh he is sorry for his appalling behavior. I don’t accept his “apology”!

That yahoo probably only apologized because he got caught on video.

He should be fired from his job as well.

I saw that video.

Gee, can’t imagine why a catch like him was eating alone! He’s undoubtedly an incel!

racism is fake. I don't care enough to click it. I wonder if it had to do with something in history and/or he was drunk?

Another...

Burn him!!!!!!!!!
