Maskless 'Karen' goes on homophobic rant and calls anti-protester a 'f*****', 'Nazi' and 'Satanist' during demonstration against coronavirus lockdowns in Los Angeles
A maskless woman wearing a 'Trump 2020' sweater has been dubbed a 'Karen' for launching a shocking homophobic rant and calling a person a 'f*****' during a protest decrying California coronavirus lockdowns.
On Sunday a group of about 50 protesters gathered outside the Echo Park home of Los Angeles County Department of Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer to denounce the county's latest coronavirus restrictions and neighbors came out to defy them.
At the demonstration a woman named Gina Michelle Bisignano, who was wearing a Trump-supporting sweater, got into a verbal dispute with one anti-protester and dropped offensive homophobic slurs.
'You're a f*****. You're disgusting. You're disgusting. You're a new world order Satanist. And you guys are all for it,' she was caught on video saying.

'You're a f*****. What are you a guy or a girl? And I'm gonna tell you something else. You're a Nazi and you're brainwashed by MK Ultra,' she said in her confrontation with a neighbor

A person behind the camera challenges her saying, 'Say it again. Say it again.'
'You're a f*****. What are you a guy or a girl? And I'm gonna tell you something else. You're a Nazi and you're brainwashed by MK Ultra,' she said to the camera, referencing the top secret CIA program that consisted of experiments on human subjects meant develop drugs and procedures for interrogations.
A man behind her intervenes and says, 'We're not here for that. We just want the state to open back up so we can get our lives back.'
'Yeah that's all we want. Is there something wrong with not wanting to have a lockdown? Is there something wrong with freedom?' Bisignano added.
'You're such a liberal piece of s***. I bet you had an abortion this morning,' she says to the person she called a slur.
Reporter Samuel Braslow shared video of the shocking dispute on Twitter.
According to TMZ, Bisignano later took to Facebook to say 'I was attacked online' following the video, but she later deleted the post.
According to Bisignano's social media she is an outspoken Trump supporter and has shared a slew of posts denouncing coronavirus lockdowns in Los Angeles and promoted an event on Saturday to defy the 10pm curfew over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend
At the protest group members waved American flags, some wore Donald Trump supporting red MAGA shirts and others chanted 'Open LA!' and 'No science. No data. No shutdown'.
Several LAPD officers were on the scene and the confrontation did not get physical.
Bisignano shared a livestream the event on Facebook on Sunday saying: 'This is not Cuba! What’s crazy is locking us in the house.'
In that clip when another neighbor mocked her she said: 'No one cares about you, Joe Biden don’t care about you. When they come to take away your freedom, then you’re really going to wish you listened to us.'
