The use of the word ‘Asian’ stood out to me. That is what muslims are called in the UK. Also, the assailants would have been referred to as white here in the US.
I grant you that it is a very odd coincidence that this soldier who thwarted the Jihadist in France got stabbed, but if you go to a Sodomite bar after midnight - hanging around a bunch of mentally deranged people who have been imbibing in alcohol - you might be putting yourself in unnecessary danger.
RE: The use of the word Asian stood out to me.
That is a very general word.
Asia as a continent is larger than Europe, Africa, North America and South America.
Asians are Muslims like Pakistanis, Indian Muslims, Malays, Indonesians, Chinese Uighurs, Bangladeshis, Afghanis, etc.
They are also Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Filipinos, Thais, Singaporeans, Mongols, Indians, Vietnamese, Laotians, Cambodians, etc.
Using the term is totally meaningless and does nothing to help identify the assailant.
He’s officially “Asian”. Look for the perps to be of the “Palestinian” muslim variety and not the Korean/Chinese/Japanese variety.
Good grief...like the “white shooter” at the college....
Any pics of the perps out yet? Hmmmm.
There’s a large Hmong population in Sacramento.
Except that the UK press using the word were quoting a US cop. In the US, the word refers to East Asian, aka Oriental, such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.
Also, the assailants would have been referred to as white here in the US.
Where do you get that?
In the US, if they were wogs, the PC press would omit mention of their ethnicity, and normal people would refer to them as Middle Eastern or worse.
