“Asian” is really a meaningless term.

A sixth generation Japanese American has almost nothing in common with some Cambodian refugees, some of whom, like the ones who live not far from me, have basically adopted the mannerisms, language, and attitudes of the ghetto.

A Chinese from Taiwan is different from a Chinese from Hong Kong is different from a Chinese from Thailand, who are probably more Thai than Chinese.

That’s not even getting into what the British call “Asians” who are Pakistanis or Indians.

Then there are the lesser minorities such as Hmong, Mien, Burmese and Nepalese/Bhutanese which a lot of people have never even heard of, much less ever encountered.

Yes, they are different . I was married to a second generation Japanese

My college roommate was half Mandarin and had a bit of disdain for the lower born Cantonese.

I have friends who are suggesful Vietnamese.

None of these groups are such spoiled cry babies as the ghetto blacks and it is just race baiting for the times to try to lump them in that category.

For decades liberals have pushed the myth of the inherent alliance of all “people of color” against whites. That by far the most important characteristic to most non-whites is that they are not white.

In actual fact, as J. Derbyshire has said many times, America has two functional races: black and non-black. Not white and non-white.

You're right. Also Asians are more realistic about 'black culture' having lived in within it before escaping...

Koreans on roof tops during the Watts riots... Sob stories about ghetto schools being so horrible - collapsing - after Asian kids graduated from them and went on to top Universities.

Just because a person is 'of color' doesn't mean the color is 'American black'...

To me it read like the progressives desperately seek to expand the victims of white Americans; what the progressives refuse to address is that the killing of said Americans by their "victims" keeps on keeping on at a rate much higher than the reverse..

I did not find data for the years 1996 through 2003

www.fbi.gov About Us CJIS UCR Crime in the U.S. Here's the links to most of the FBI tables I referenced above.

Here's 2012

Here's 2011

Here's 2010

Here's 2009

Here's 2008

Here's 2007

Here's 2006

Here's 2005

It is long past the time when facts should be made public to expose the lies and misrepresentations of the Obama-Holder demagogues and the race-grievance industry.The Obama-Holder demagogues, the race-grievance industry, and most employees of the MSM have made this a racial issue. So let's see..

So adding up the blacks killed by whites (Col 1) and whites killed by blacks(col 2). Surprise.

col 1 Col 2
193 431
193 448
218 447
209 454
230 504
245 566
208 573
230 516
228 522
281 699
2235 5160

Whites outnumber blacks by at least six-to-one.

As the screams of RACIST! augment let me add this

A fact about crime:

"Although there is a large disparity between the crime rates of whites and those of African-Americans, any perception that this is based solely on racism quickly evaporates when family structure is considered in the data. When researchers control for marriage, the rates of crime for whites and blacks in each family group are very similar."

But hey dealing with facts would put the Obama-Holder demagogues and the race-grievance industry out of business.
