New York Post ^ | September 30, 2015 | David K. Li

An Oregon woman has raised nearly $1,500 to pay for illnesses she claims were brought on by being an Asian-American living in a predominantly white city.

“I grew up in and live in the [Portland] area. The stress of living as a Thai-Cambodian woman in such a white city replete with constant interpersonal and institutional racism has a big toll on my health and wellbeing,” according to the YouCaring posting by Rinna Rem.

The heading of her crowdfunding appeal is: “White Friends, Pay For My Therapy.”

We agree on this Nea. We’re making foolish mistakes across the board right now.

Go to her site and you’ll see that 77 deluded lunatics have actually given money to this pathetic grievance-mongering grafter.

lock her up in a shipping container and send her home. What’s the problem. Cambodia is great this time of year, even better when she gets there in two months.

This “victim” looks pretty chunky for a Marfan syndrome patient, who, as a rule, tend to be tall and thin. Maybe it’s some obscure Asian-American strain of Marfan syndrome.

Evict her from her apartment and make her live next to a SAAB dealership. We'll open a honky tonk on the other side with a rodeo grounds in the back.

All we'd need then is to somehow direct a never-ending stream of Renaissance Faire hippies to her door saying "Forsooth, stout washer-woman! Art thou in need of a skirling of the pipes?"

She's had eleven jobs in the last six years, each lasting an average of six months. None of the jobs seem to have anything to do with one another and they're all silly.

Well done, Oregon. Still cranking out 'at-risk' lamebrains as usual, I see.

I think Cambodians are at the low end of the Asian gene pool.

Asian Derangement Syndrome, when you want to blame everyone else for what you can’t or won’t do?

I’m sure there would be plenty of people willing to buy her a one-way ticket to Cambodia.

It sounds like a skit from “In Living Color.” Thankfully, she’s not seeking taxpayer funding, but is raising cash on a private funding site. Oh, well, you know what they say about a fool and his money...
