Aaron Schlossberg, a lawyer based in New York City, is feeling the wrath of the general public after a video of him engaging in a racist tirade went viral on Wednesday. He was caught yelling at an employee during a visit to Fresh Kitchen in midtown Manhattan, where he complained the staff was speaking to their patrons in Spanish.
Schlossberg was captured complaining "my guess is they're not documented," before exclaiming to a man who appeared to be the manager that "my next call is to ICE to have each one of them kicked out of my country."
ICE, or the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, is responsible for deporting any illegal citizens whilst enforcing federal laws on border control.
Schlossberg has been dragged all over Twitter in the wake of his blatant and unapologetic racism.

His firm, the Law Office of Aaron M. Schlossberg, has now been pummelled with a barrage of one-star reviews on Yelp. Many of the adjoining comments refer to the disgraced attorney as a "vile racist" and other remarks aimed squarely at his bigotry. As a result, Yelp is on active cleanup alert, which removes "both positive and negative posts that appear to be motivated more by the news coverage itself than the reviewer's personal consumer experience with the business."
Similarly, his business page on Google has been altered to appear as a Spanish restaurant.
