The “Stop Asian Hate” movement began when a violent criminal assaulted an 84-year-old Thai man on a San Francisco street.
Wokes quickly rushed to divert attention from the perpetrator in this case, a black man, to Trump supporters, while pretending that ‘Stop Asian Hate’ had something to do with white people attacking Asians despite the fact that the preponderance of the cases of assaults on Asian people were a whole lot like Antoine Watson’s assault on 84-year-old Vicha Ratanapakdee.
That was back in 2021. 5 years later, a San Francisco jury acquitted Watson of the killing of the 84-year-old man. His lawyers and the media claimed Watson was just being impulsive when he assaulted Ratanapakdee.
Watson’s lawyers claimed that the assault was a moment “of panic from a teenager” even though Ratanapakdee was 84 years old and in no position to threaten an 18-year-old man, and “one that’s reflective of a teenage brain”, insisting that the jury treat the criminal like a child. Watson’s ‘juvenile’ criminal record was not introduced into the trial allowing him to be portrayed as having committed a rash assault. And the media piled on the BLM stuff, claiming that Watson’s previous traffic stop had traumatized him.
Soros pro-crime DA Chesa Boudin had described the killing as “some sort of temper tantrum.”
In a typical case of moral inversion, the roles of the killer and the victim were flipped, and Watson was acquitted of the more serious charges.
Some of the activists are frustrated that ‘Stop Asian Hate’. But it failed because they wouldn’t talk about the larger issues which is that pro-crime policies are systematically destroying Asian communities. Asian people have low rates of violent crime and high rates of victimization.
This is the outcome.
Vote for Democrats who believe that the likes of Antoine Watson are always the victims and their victims have it coming and this is what happens.
