Are we going to pretend that where the attackers come from matters less than the fact that the attacks happen?


I read the entire article and never thought "here go white people again being all racist and crap".  Instead a read about increasing violence toward Asians and thought "this is horrible and we should be speak out against it more".

But, to be fair, its not the first time this board has seen people jump to the defense of white people whether they were attacked or not.
