    Not sure the status of komonews, never heard of them before. But the term "asian hornet" will be deemed racist in 3.....2......1....
    How do they know they are asian? Are africanized bees assaulting them?

    Washington State. In this age of Internet, news organizations really must include the locale in their dateline.

    The feds have hornet informants in the nest and are waiting to eradicate the nest until they can blame the death of a queen bee on a “right-wing” faction.

    They know that they’re Asian because they’re better at math than other hornets, expectantly the green ones.
