funny and ironic story

My husband's nephew's wife, 30 yrs old, is part American Indian, with dark hair and eyes. She is also college-educated and gainfully employed. Recently, in her home town of Chicago a homeless woman panhandled her. She told the woman she didn't have any money, and she didn't, because who carries cash these days. The homeless woman then told her to "go back to your own country." And she was like, "hmmm..." Ironic on more than one level!
