SAN FRANCISCO — Prosecutors in Seattle and San Francisco have charged men with hate crimes in separate incidents that authorities say targeted people of Asian descent amid a wave of high-profile and sometimes deadly violence against Asian Americans since the pandemic began.

Hundreds of protesters took to the streets of Los Angeles and throughout the San Francisco Bay Area on Saturday, the latest in a series of rallies in response what many said has become a troubling surge of anti-Asian sentiments.

“We can no longer accept the normalization of being treated as perpetual foreigners in this country,” speaker Tammy Kim told a rally in L.A.’s Koreatown.

Must be short excerpts. Complete propaganda about the not-so-recent Democrat crime wave.

[gundog]

Are they white?

[Eagles6]

Iwould guess not or it, surely, would have been in the title.

[PghBaldy]

Victor Humberto Brown & Christopher Hamner are the names. One Hamner incident happened near MLK Jr. Way. Hamner accused of multiple incidents against Asians.

[Gene Eric]

Hate Crime law is thoroughly idiotic.

And yet Yale University keeps Asians out because they are Asians. No other reason.

Wrong.

They take lots of Asians. Foreign trash from India and Communist China.

Asian-Americans? Not so much

I do not know their race since I did not read (and will not read, by the way) the story, but I guarantee you they are democrat party voters.

[Beagle8U]

No pics of the perps because they are black.

The latest obsessive mantra of the left is now “Anti Asian hate.”

This must stop. “Asian” is too broad a category. It includes Japanese, Korean, Pakistani, Lebanese, Cambodian, Chinese, Russian, Turkish. A Korean has nothing at all in common with a Pakistani. It is insane to think that all people whose ancestry goes back to one land mass are the same.

“Asian” was chosen as the label for a victim group precisely because it includes so many people. The more people who qualify as a victim, the more political power it has.

Need to charge ANTIFA with anti-Asian hate crime for all of their physical assaults against Andy Ngo!

[jughandle]

A member of one particular group identified Asians as easy targets for a quick mugging.

[gundog]

If they vote at all.

Since America hates San Francisco, should people who live there be permitted to leave?

[GailA]

Learn to speak ENGLISH then. Go into their businesses, all you hear is their home language. NO ENGLISH, Maybe third generation can, but usually don’t. Not much attempt, to become Americanized. Pointing to the sink, mumble go wash hands is Not English, obviously nail salons.

[lurk]

Show us a white person who attacked an Asian person.

[RitchieAprile]

Hamner is white.

Hamner appears at approximtely minute 1.1 in the video.

If they were white it wouldn't take a detective to figure out the race...

[keving]
