    The model Asian minority is industrious, hard-working. He needs tools to succeed.

    So, just what is it that makes these suspects “Asian”? Dark-skinned Indians? Sun-adverse Japanese? A Charlie Chan caricature? What do these hooligans actually look like? Which stereotype are we to use? Hmmmm?

    Thank the DNC for this. When the voters get sick of this maybe they will consider voting red but I doubt it.

        Yes. Tired of the conservative spin machine or the Russians posing as same as they fill the Interweb with garbage political posts. I’ve written this site and they are taking steps to reduce the amount of this type of stuff and I applaud that but more needs to be done.

        There is a direct correlation between politics and crime. Policies enacted have a direct result out on the streets. 108RS

        I really would like to know how anyone can think that voting for soft on crime laws and DAs has not greatly contributed to the current crime spree.

          I guess one could suggest Covid lockdowns leading to stress and financial hardship played a role.

          No doubt widespread mask wearing played a role in greasing the wheels.
