A racist incident at an Asian restaurant in North Carolina, where a customer left a derogatory note on a receipt, has ignited online outrage. 

What happened: On Saturday, a customer named Autumn Bray left a note on her $71.38 bill receipt at the Wafu Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi in Goldsboro. Instead of a tip to her server, Bray wrote, “Ching-Chong / Ding-Dong / P.S. F*ck you!”
