My Asian Friends who lean left are all scared, my Asian Friends who are pro 2nd and who carry are "concerned" and staying frosty.
I'm not sure of what to believe about this increase in Asian Violence except to say my friends are impacted negatively and this pisses me off.
I believe the media created this issue, but being of Mexican Heritage and having roots in Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado (prior to statehood) I admit I'm ignorant to the feelings within the Asian American Culture.
My wife is Chinese and we live in a predominantly White neighborhood and haven’t encountered one instance of prejudice. Maybe we would if we lived in the city. Dunno...
