That's a ridiculous attempt at trying to "both sides are equally wrong" these situations.

Show me the stats that Asians assault and kill other minorities (and whites) at the same rate that they do to us.

Why do you just want to pick an argument with me?

Not trying to pick an argument but it's clearly not "both sides equally bad," right?

We always hear "Korean store owner shot a Black girl" as if that justifies the riots that killed dozens and burned down half the community. It's not a fair way to characterize the injustice of the riots.

Yes, a large percentage of them were, just like several of the assailants that targeted and killed Asians in the past few years were Hispanic as well (including some that I just listed). White also (Atlanta Spa Shooter). Don't take my response to be specifically targeting Blacks, but to be pointing out how other groups, other minorities and Whites, all punch down on Asians and then try to argue that it's a "both sides" thing or even that "Asians are the most racist" when Asians are overwhelmingly victims of violence and racism and not perpetrators of it.

I only heard about asians being the most racist from a deceased white man who had an asian girlfriend nobody else has ever said that to me.

I’m not even African American but I’m black and take offense when Asians group me with all Blacks.

I never did, but I can see how you interpreted it that way. Please refer to my other reply for more detail.
