Racial Injustice?

I was watching a part of the "Today Show" this morning and they did a segment on how the Chinese population in our cities are being yelled at, threatened and cursed because people think they should not be allowed to be out and about. Have we become that insensitive to our fellow man? What is it about some people where they believe stereotyping a race is a way to fix a problem?

I watched as one American woman yelled at a young Chinese female, "Go home and take the virus with you." There was also a young male doctor that was being threatened with bodily harm, but luckily for him, a larger man stepped in and calmed the situation.
 

Dallas, Texas two months after 9-11:

A white adult male went to a convenience store and shot and killed the dark skinned owner.

His defense was, 'I only did what you'll wanted to do... with these Muslims.'

The owner was a Hindu from India.
 

It's disgusting for lack of a better word.

Just the other day a 92 year old Asian gentleman with dementia was beaten in Vancouver when he wandered into a store.

And someone dared question our country's chief medical pandemic officer as to whether she works for China because of her Asian heritage.
 
I have said this before and I will say it again. A good strong percentage of those in the medical field are of Asian or Muslim descent.

One saved my husband's life when the Caucasian doctor accidentally severed an artery and he was rushed in to assist.

Being a semi-redneck and having done several theses on violence, poverty and fear. I feel somewhat qualified to state that anywhere you find fear, you will find violence.

This Asian violence is news to me-I watch the local news for weather and PBS for national news; I've not heard a word about
these events.

Jerry, did you maybe mean 'several thesis'?

I'll tell you what. As soon as I feel it's OK to do so, I'm going back to my favorite Chinese restaurant "China Village" and have me some Orange Chicken over white rice. It's the best I ever had.

My son loves orange chicken, he can hardly wait as well.
 
Just stop. Ignorant people will do ignorant things. But I do NOT believe there are more than a few dozen incidents like this. I just don't. But the news will take these incidents and blow them out of all proportion because … well, just because.

I have never been able to spell so I rarely notice spelling errors, never could figure out how you could look up how to spell a word in the dictionary if you couldn’t spell the word. So crazy.

It is happening because you know who said the virus in the US came from China, but testing shows our strain came from Europe. All those numb nuts blaming the Chinese, are wrong.

From my friends experiences it's three for three and that is just in my small circle. Which leads me to believe there is much more than a few dozen around the country, let around how many may happen around the world. Think what you may, maybe "they" are being hyper sensitive.

Our strain came from Europe? Don't make me laugh. It started in China. It did. Not Europe. You're wrong. Wrong. Wrong. I don't blame some random Chinese person in a restaurant. I blame the Chinese government. And WHO. They worked in tandem to cover it up, which of course did not work.

The testing in NYC showed that it came from China but then some one in China took it to Europe, and someone in Europe brought it to New York City. We have the European strain. I suppose you can google it but that’s what the testing showed. In any event, don’t shoot the messenger, I didn’t conduct the test or do the tv interview.
 
Honestly, I think you're splitting hairs. It started in China. In a lab. It's because of the Chinese and their lying government. No two ways about it. There were hundreds of flights from China to this country, but you think it was a European who brought it here. Right. Not buying it. In fact, I don't care. It came outta China. I don't hate Chinese people. But I'm pretty pissed off at the Chi-com government.
