Matthew Chew

It couldn't be a hate crime, now could it?! /s

Matthew was born in Japan on May 16, 1985, son of Commander Richard F. and Marilyn (Sloan) Chew of Arcadia, Calif. Matthew grew up in Gales Ferry, graduating from Ledyard High School in 2003. Matt had a strong connection to the art and music community and was a passionate artist and musician, deejaying at several local clubs. He adored his dog, Ellie and enjoyed being a part of the 2 Wives Pizza family. He will be well remembered by his family and many friends.

In addition to his parents, he is survived by his brother, Michael Chew and girlfriend, Alexandra Monter, of Mansfield; and his sister and brother-in-law, Mindy and Wayne Fowler of Canterbury. He is also survived by his nieces and nephews, Cody, Ivy, Roman, and Athena; and his girlfriend, Lindsey Krodel.

We say it every time but it is true. Imagine the hysteria from the media, politicians, “community activists,” etc if a group of bored white youths killed a minority for no reason.

That’s the part I hate the most. You read about a charming, interesting, well loved individual and they become no more than the ‘victim’, while the system begins to talk about the murderers’ rights. I can’t write more without a string of nasty words and saying something that will get me booted off.

So Chew San was Japanese? Yes it was a hate crime! The blacks did not like the Japanese man! That is the argument one could use!
