Fix crime, and everyone will benefit, including Asians. But that's not the path the left has charted. So drink up.
politics and politicians will never fixed what ails this country. People are so fixated on political parties and race when the real issue is the continued eradication of the middle class and the growing divide between rich and poor. Politicians do not enter politics to fix issues or problems, they seek money, control and power while laughing at fools arguing republican vs democrat. I read about family members that stopped communicating because of trump. Family, people who share history, blood, lifetimes turning their backs on each other for someone who could give a rat's backside about them. The only thing that will bring this country together is if people are able to reach across politics and skin color and embrace the issue we have in common and force the government to fully address those issues. Stop our government from using their power and influence to assist the rich in getting richer and more powerful. End taxing Social Security recipients, increase funding to schools, daycare for the working poor. rebuild our middle class, strengthen our farmers and the other ills creating holes in our fabric. Poverty and hopelessness exists amongst all races, when we can all come together and demand change that is will change will occur.

Tee hee! Nah y'all don't "all look alike" to me -- it was definitely you carrying on with Eleanor with the Parkchester co-op in many a mega-thread (though the whole forum was telling you different)...you been downplaying crime for at least the past six or seven years here but that anti-Asian stuff was pretty raw, man, even for you!

I had to triple/quadruple/quintuple/sextuple-check yo' name 'cause it was so damned weird!! The worst I remember was you denying that old Harlem Chine'e can-collector got bashed dead in the head at all despite video evidence!

Police believe it's an easy escape back to the Bronx and south to Jamaica. Bayside/Whitestone/Flushing being hit bard.

The perps are not fellow Asians or white.

As for Trump, calling out China and the city of Wuhan for letting a virus spread across the globe that killed millions, including likely family members/friends of many on this board, is not racism against Chinese Americans. No more than calling out Putin and Russia is racism against Russian Americans in Brooklyn.

And by the way, as China enters to Russia's defense in the Ukraine and is called out by Biden, which he already has, you can't continue to blame trump for local crime against Asians in places like Queens. Bunch of nonsene.
Yup, it’s still happening...

Hard to see/tell...statistically, I am convinced that they are more likely to be irish than being swedish.
