Hi everyone,
someone I know keeps refering to my friend in a very disrespectful way and seems to find it ok or amusing.I'm at the end of my patience.How can I say
"How dare you speak about her like that!Please stop it!She is my friend!Show some respect!"
I wish to sound harsh since my previous polite requests were ignored.thanks very much to any help.

Kanojo wo sonna fuu ni iu nante, yamete! (How dare you you speak about her like that, stop it!)
Watashi no tomodachi yo. (She is my friend.)
Watashi e no bujoku to onaji yo. (It is the same thing as insulting me.)

I've changed the last line because (I feel) the sentence as it was does not translate well, so I turned it around. I hope this works. (By the way, I am using female speech; let me know if you are a guy.)

How about
"omoi-yari tte mon ga nai no?!" (Can't you show some respect?!)
for
"Show some respect!"
