San Antonio City Council: Hate Speech Is More Dangerous Than The Virus Itself

SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) – San Antonio City Council has approved a resolution ‘combating hate speech’ in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mayor Ron Nirenberg proposed the resolution, citing hate crimes, discrimination and aggression against Asians and members of the Jewish community across the country.

It states that COVID-19 is a public health issue, not a racial, religious or ethnic one, and that the use of terms such as “Chinese virus” or “Kung Fu virus” encourages hate crimes against Asians. The resolution also says the Jewish community has been targeted with blame and conspiracy theories about spreading COVID_19 and profiting from the virus.

Resolution being voted on by San Antonio City Council this morning labels terms "Chinese Virus" and "Kung Fu Virus" as hate speech and "all persons are encouraged to report any such antisemitic, discriminatory or racist incidents to the proper authorities for investigation". pic.twitter.com/jV6tKnQrRD

This is NUTS. SA City Council behaving like a lefty college faculty lounge, triggered by Chick-fil-A & the words “Wuhan virus.” If they want to investigate someone, start with NYT & CNN who both repeatedly (and rightly) referred to it as “the Chinese coronavirus.” #NoSpeechPolice https://t.co/a10BZAvleQ

With all the retired military and bases in SA you’d think it would be more conservative. Apparently not enough of them.

I’ve not heard of Blacks and I believe Salt Lick is only in Austin? Not certain as I’m not one to eat out a bunch, but I do love the Salt Lick peach cobbler recipe! Yum!

NBA big in SA

That is all they have to claim to glory. The Sperms coach Popovich has more craters on his face than the moon and is an Anti-American POS from the Air Force Academy.

The regimes that have murdered and enslaved half a billion people by every conceivable way imaginable all had SPEECH CODES! The Founding Fathers were not stupid with Amendments One and Two. This is why the left wants to destroy their legacy and start from DAY ONE/ZERO. They purge anything in their way and will say anything,hiding behind the 1st Amendment,to destroy the Constitution and kill us one way or another. The left calls anyone who defies them as “hateful”, “crazy” and “terrorists”.

Black’s in Lockhart. It’s really good.

They have others in other cities, eg Austin.
