Definitely a Chinese guy.

“ Yeah, he was Vietnamese. Let’s get out of the prediction business. 🤡”

When I said it I meant not white or Mexican.

But anyhow, he is Chinese.

Chinese from Vietnam.

[ifinnegan]

By the way, he is Chinese.

From Vietnam, but Chinese.

No reason for Judy Chu to be there. But she is.

I am not a fan of Congresswoman Chu...

But, Monterey Park is in her Congressional district...She lives in Monterey Park...She did serve on Monterey Park City Council many years ago...

I do not see anything wrong with her being at the press conference...I think that is what politicians are supposed to do...Both liberal and conservative politicians...

[Bonemaker]

Oh GEEZ!

I disagree. Our costliest war killed 600,000 American soldiers, and the primary assault rifle was a single shot muzzle loader.

An "assault rifle" is whatever rifle one has for the "assault." If one lacks a rifle, an "assault" handgun. Or an "assault" knife. Or ......

Journalists, like politicians, are stupid and lazy.

Huu Can Tran was a patron of the Star Ballroom Dance Studio where he met his wife about two decades ago. His marriage later ended in divorce.

In the late 2000s and early 2010s he would go to the dance studio to find women. Tran often complained at the time that the instructors at the dance hall didn’t like him and said “evil things about him,” a friend remembered, adding Tran was “hostile to a lot of people there.”

I think Tran experienced rejection at those dance studios. I have heard the women exploit the men at those studios to keep them spending money on the membership.

I imagine Tran’s hatred was displayed by the weapon he used. The weapon Tran used was one favored by the drug gangs to take out rival gangs. It was wrestled away from the him at a second dance studio in nearby Alhambra. It was a 9 mm caliber semiautomatic MAC-10 assault weapon.
