This is kind of like the GnR song, "One in a Million." The song is told from the POV of a fictionalized version of Axl (himself not paragon of virtuous behavior, good decision making or anything like good taste) and various culture shock he experienced upon moving from Indiana to L.A.
In particular, he uses the N-word. He reinforced, "I was pissed off about some black people that were trying to rob me. I wanted to insult those particular black people."
Seems like that's what this lady did. If she had made up a word, like "Stupid Cacklebrains", I think this would be a non-story.
But, maybe the races would have still made it a story. Sad.

Like I said this goes to the problem of people acting like all situations are equal.
Hell people don't even really know me personally and yet there have been dozens of occasions when someone is mad at me on this board where they have made negative references to my height
Why? Because it's easy and they think it will work because they assume a short person don't like to be insulted for his height
If a black person is being an a****** and someone wants to call them out for it there's a perfectly decent chance that the obvious insult available will be used
So I point that out to also point out that short jokes don't work on me. You want to know why? Simple. Because I don't give them the power. Usually my reaction to someone going there is to chuckle because it's very rare that whatever they said is new to me.
It ain't like I woke up yesterday looked in the mirror and just noticed I was short.
An insult any insult only has the power that the target gives it.
Offense is a choice. It is literally impossible to offend someone. And it's impossible to be offended.
