Monterey Park is a heavily Chinese area. You can see in the pictures they have a bunch of decorations up for Lunar New Year. I think it's unlikely that some white domestic terrorist who wanted to target Asians knows enough about Chinese-American culture to show up in Monterey Park on Lunar New Year and start shooting. I think it's more likely to be a local who had a problem and solved it the American way.
I was in B&N flipping thru this new book by comedian Amber Ruffin. It's the 2nd edition of racist stories her & her sister have compiled. They do it humorously but it's still hard to believe that Whitelandians in this day & age want to touch their hair or say "you're one of the good ones"
Not to me it's not. There are 330 million Americans. If 5% of them are idiots, that's a ton of idiots.
It's everyday life anywhere in America for those Black folks who have hair. I can't relate.. As far as being one of the good ones, it was said to me as recently as sixth grade.
You're either well-spoken and kind (I was and am) or you're easy to get along with (I can be) or you're not going to vocalize about their privilege. It's the sort of thing White folks would say about Clarence Thomas but not Barack Obama (who actually IS half-White)..
Oh, some here on BS would disagree. They'd say I'm overstating the effect that conservatism has had on the lives POCs lead in this country. They even call me bigoted and tell me to STFU.
Non-Republicans appreciate Barry but not patronizingly. More out of admiration for an impressive resume/nice family. Republicans think he's a Kenyan commie "community activist" out to destroy the very fabric of America. And his pops was a "typical N word" who split after knocking up his white momma. Anyone with eyes and ears - white & black - knows what Ol' Clarence is all about.

Oh absolutely it's everywhere. I recall dropping coworkers off in Paterson BITD and them saying "just don't drive thru Clifton. Don't wanna be hassled"

The Fans are just antagonizing the player and trying to get a rise out of him, he should do better than to get upset and let them win. That is how you do it, Russ!!
Biden is taking some heat for comments he made to the New York Observer, in which he said of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., a rival for the nomination: "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man." https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=2838420&page=1
of course you take them as compliments Otherwise you would be supporting a racist who is MTG? and why are so so concerned about my love life?
What "heat"? From whom is Biden taking some heat"? Please explain where this heat emanates. That was almost 20 years ago and, it would appear, President Obama apparently "forgave" (no reason to forgive) Biden for any "insult" (it does not seem Obama was insulted) Obama felt. Also, Biden did not say "One of the good ones" in the quote you posted. So, you post and quote are irrelevant to the conversation. Your asinine delusional right-wing talking point don't fly around here, or in the face of reality.
