Jabbing her finger repeatedly, she blasts: "Are you all that uneducated? You can't read, you can't read can you? You can't f****** read. Are you that f****** thick, you dumb c***?"

She turns to the person filming and calls him a "dumb f****** c***" before sticking her middle fingers up at the camera.

Incredibly, she then climbs on top of the locked chicken crate and tries to force it open.
