I wish they'd pick on people like Jackie Chan or the old lady that grabbed the stick and put the guy in the hospital.

That seems to be the case in a number of cellphone clips that I've seen, though it'll never be pointed out in the MSM that many of these attackers are Black.

I know, a friend lives there, but was surprised that attacks were even happening there.

apples and oranges. Canada vs USA
“We count different things,” he said. “Hate speech and other acts which would be deemed civil in the United States and would be counted as a hate incident and not a hate crime wouldn’t register (in data from U.S. cities), but would register in Canada.” been very, very few "hate crimes" in Vancouver, using the USA's definition. maybe 5 or 6? - not that that is in any way acceptable.

Well, its been this double standard for some time now. I bet they will get beat down by black folks if they went out and held signs that say Asian Lives Matters, just like all life matters.

I was just talking to my friend about the time a few years ago when he was jumped. A vagrant hit him over the head from behind with a bar and started choking my buddy. Complete cheap shot. But he was not counting on backup. I got there probably a minutue later and well. Put it this way.....I put the hurt on him with extreme thoroughness then we beat it before the cops showed up. If someone is going to jump an innocent person then they take that risk of needing medical attention.

It is just so illogical to me that it just boggles my mind. How any human brain can connect the Chinese government's actions with the pandemic, to the people walking around on the street in North America is like blaming the German people of today for Hitler.
It has to be mental illness. The perpetrators need harsh penalties of assault and battery with intention to kill. I think "hate crime" is a stupid term, and any and all assaults need the same penalty. And it needs to be harsh. Put a tent city jail up like Sheriff Joe Arpaio ran. Take future tax refunds or payments to the perps to help fund it.

I remember reading Vancouver property prices went thru the roof largely due to Chinese buying up property for investment. Maybe resentment for pricing locals out of the market?

You beat me to it. It will get worst. Its easier to blame others for your misfortune then to look self in the mirror. Welcome to the new America
