George Lopez is trending online in 2017 and no, it's not because there's a George Lopez Showrevival in the works.

The comedian is in the middle of a heated Twitter debate after footage was released by TMZof Lopez telling racially charged joke from his stand-up performance in Phoenix—and his retort to an audience member's reaction was not the most pleasant.

“There’s still two rules in the f*cking Latino family,” Lopez said on Sunday night during his set. “Don’t marry somebody black, and don’t park in front of our house.”

When a women stood up amongst the laughing audience to flip Lopez off, the comedian had some choice words for her.

“Sit your f*cking a** down. I’m talking, b*tch. Sit your f*cking a** down,” Lopez yelled. “You paid to see a show. Sit your ass down. You can’t take a joke, you’re in the wrong motherf*cking place.”

"You have two choices—shut the f*ck up or get the f*ck out," he said, tweeting the same sentiment a few days after the show.

While the event happened on Sunday night, TMZreleased footage from the performance on Tuesday. By Wednesday morning, Lopez had become a trending topic on Twitter and the center of a discussion around anti-blackness in comedy.

Many people who tweeted their thoughts were not impressed by the joke—but even more frustrated by the aggressive nature in which Lopez handled the situation
