Saw this quote on a xanga post:
What is more disturbing to me is that I had a phone conversation with a girlfriend of mine in LA this evening… she told me that people in Ktown are getting their cars egged. And today, she was in WESTWOOD, mind you this is an educated college community, and someone pulled up next to her car and asked if she was going to try to “kill [him] too”… This was not a joke.
I was appalled to read this since I graduated from UCLA and over half of the population there is Asian! You would think people there would be less ignorant about this. It’s not even a matter of ethnicity. I think people are just using it as an excuse to be racist. It’s so disgusting and I can’t believe it happens in this day and age, especially in LA where there are so many different ethnicities everywhere.
Also, I read about how Cho’s family are receiving death threats…the people who do that are as crazy as Cho was in my opinion.
I wonder why so many people in this world are filled with hatred for no reason.
This is a great article about how Koreans are not to blame.

Some people are such jerks! I went to a party last night and was irritated when a friend of mine who isn’t very talkative and also happens to be asian, was targeted because of it. They joked that she was planning on “pulling a virginia tech.” I was so irritated.

im ashamed that people around ucla are doing that… bruins are much more civilized than that! the whole virginia tech issue was not even over race, but mainly financial situations it seems. one of the victims was asian!!! it’s racist people like that that stir up more trouble… i just hope they dont get what they’re asking for.
