Yuanyuan Zhu was walking to her gym in San Francisco on March 9, thinking the workout could be her last for a while, when she noticed that a man was shouting at her. He was yelling an expletive about China. Then a bus passed, she recalled, and he screamed after it, “Run them over.”

She tried to keep her distance, but when the light changed, she was stuck waiting with him at the crosswalk. She could feel him staring at her. And then, suddenly, she felt it: his saliva hitting her face and her favorite sweater.

In shock, Ms. Zhu, who is 26 and moved to the United States from China five years ago, hurried the rest of the way to the gym. She found a corner where no one could see her, and she cried quietly.

Ms. Zhu needs to learn to stay away from Democrats and Liberals.

Ah yes. People aren’t lashing out because of how China handled this, it’s the President saying China Virus that set them off. Sure.

This apparently happened in liberal, racist, hate-filled, Democrat-dominated, progressive San Francisco.

Sounds like an average day for anyone in San Francisco.

I don’t know the prevalence of cameras in SF, but in NY, it’s probably have been on camera and the person could be identified. For real cases, prosecute their butts. For fake cases, prosecute theirs.

So.......Millennials take pics and video of every damn thing they do in life. If they stub their toe, brush their hair.

Yet, the claims of attacks (verbal or otherwise) are filling the internet, but without video or pictures.

Cell phones from different angles would be videoing such an event. And there is not.

My wife’s Chinese, we have many Chinese friends, she’s on WeChat (Chinese version of Instagram) all day long.

There hasn’t been a single incident of this type that she’s aware of.

There have - on the other hand - been dozens if not hundreds of fake “hate crimes” breathlessly reported by the Monica Media since Donald Trump became President. I’m going with that theory here.

Do we have a proper description of the perp?

We know who was generally preying upon Chinese / Asian immigrants in big cities ante, I’m wondering if anything has changed, other than some invective by morons?

All the perps in the videos fit the standard m.o. of leftists. There was one where a slur was written on a car and the writing was obviously female. Would not be surprising if the girl wrote it on her own car to feed the fake news narrative.

B.S. With an extra helping of crap on top.

If anyone is doing this, it’ll be the left....either because they’re not playing with a full deck, or doing it deliberately to cause trouble. Like a good leftist does.

BUT incidents like this happen so regularly they are not even news worthy.

Philly police investigating alleged assault, robbery recorded on video, Mayor Kenney says (Hate Crime?)

If the CEO is this clueless you might consider getting your resume out there Before he destroys the company.

This supposedly happened in San Francisco. I’m pretty sure there are no more rational people still residing in that particular city.

Plus, I still don’t believe it happened.
