Serial criminals who committed violet crimes/murders shouldn’t be excused for “mental illnessâ€ÂÂ. There are no human rights for Asian Americans when you let criminals live freely among them.
Bring back the death penalty and lock up the serial criminals!
What do you expect after the sentencing of Kim Potter, probably a lot of angry people blaming Asian people for Judge Chu's actions.
Why do black Americans hate Asians?
ABC can pretend, but Asians know who is targeting them.
Everyone should Go back
And I am so so sad😥 about a 2 asian american woman I am so so crying 😢 😠💆😞 😫 😪 😢 😠💆😞 😫 😪 😢 ðŸ˜ÂÂ
😢Oh no no no no no this is a can not a happening again again and again again this is has to stop ✋ the racist
Good
It is so awful that the Asian and Islander members of our communities are being targeted. I live in Wyoming, where hundreds of Japanese Americans were kept in camps over unjustified fears that they were working for the Japanese military. They didn’t deserve discrimination then and they don’t deserve it all now.
You look at the statistics on who assaults Asian People in the U.S. realizing its not the majority group committing crimes against Asians but instead its another minority group committing a ton of these crimes against the Asian Community yet the Media and Politicians try to lay the blame on COVID-19 instead of confronting this problem head on.
Yet People forget which minority group is committing these crimes against Asian People its certainly not the group the Media and Politicians want people to think it is. This problem existed long before COVID existed.
We all know who is committing the crimes against them 👊ðŸÂ¿.
America is wide open.
First let me give my condolences to any victims ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ½but do people not consider this propaganda? What SPECIFIC race of people actually hate Asians & have been targeting them? Stop being vague! Because It’s manipulative & misleading. For an act to be considered a “hate crime†a prosecutor has to first PROVE that the crime was motivated by racism. That it wasn’t just a random robbery or assault. Which is hard to prove in court. So how can you prove “Asian hate crimes†are up 76% when you don’t even have a solid suspect? Who hates Asians? Black people? White people? Spanish people? Or everyone?? 🤷ðŸÂ½
who is targeting them the most
uh 0h
I urge Asians to become part of law reinforcement, judicary, and lawmakers. It's the only way to prevent this from happening.
It has always been there. It's only now Asians are being vocal about it.
I’m not good at English. So I wrote in japanese.

Move to Canada 🇨🇦. Safer country
It is shameful that people kill people for really nothing but the Chinese need to change their eating of dogs and cats so they don't spread bad infections
More Asian hate crime under Biden. Think about that.
the most intense hate and discrimination are from themselves against each other anyway
they are disgusting non-human being , hate crime is not a crime
This has been going on in UK as well throughout COVID.
This has not been spoken about enough. Hardly mentioned in the UK.
Spent alot of time talking about racism amongst black ppl, leaving out hate crimes against Asian ppl. I'm mixed black. Racism isn't just about us.
Makes me feel angry and sad more attention is not focused on other races too.
Protect yourself. Buy gun or taser.
Understand where they are coming from I personally Don't have any problem With the Chinese Community They are all nice people The problem I have is with the Chinese government And the way thay Treat there People I understand why thay want to live in America A place where they can think for themselves And do as they please Without the fear of being judged by the government or what to do and think
