pack em in like sardines in NYC and what do you expect...dang NYC ALWAYS making us look bad... besides for total cases Florida, Texas and California still have us beat... but Michiganistan is still in the top 10

Per capita cases are of course different than total cases and much more meaningful.

I don't say so ex cathedra. Not lying with numbers says so.

okie dokie...per capita is better than total... for tracking Covid infections....if you say so....by the way per capita...and total...are both numbers

This version of the virus takes a shorter time of exposure and it replicates faster the delta variant...for a cheerful short lived win.

Given that trump is stirring up anti-semitism and that party is the happy home for them, we're in for quite a 'ride' in the next few years.

Given that I'm a true Californian, any group that's selectively targeted is going to put friends and acquaintances at heightened risk. Asians being targets because of the "China virus" and lingering ancient stereotypes is one such group.

There is a lot wrong with that response

Biden has been in office for almost a year....so when do we stop blaming Trump for al our problems? When do we stop looking for people to blame and start taking responsibiity and try to get things done..besides the usual finger pointing that seems to be the norm these days

As for the "China Virus" that has nothing to do with attacks on Asians What that did was impact their businesses because folks were afraid to go to them out of fear of getting the "Chinese Virus"

The attacks began during the Black Lives Matter protests when it was deemed that Asians cannot be minorities because they make to much money. Even though by percentage they are more of a minority than Blacks in this country.

So to clarify, the "China Virus" has nothing to do with the attacks on Chinese, there is way to much time between that statement and the attacks. And this is occurring under Biden's watch, so I fail to see how this is Trumps fault.



Also, based on the reported attacks in your beloved California, they were after money and it had nothing to do with the "Chinese Virus". Because, Chinese are nt minorities because they, like all Asians ,"Make to much money"

You are in fact accusing Biden of stirring up hate against asians by bringing in his presidency when I did no such thing.

Read and learn:

With racial attacks on the rise, Asian Americans fear for their safety

This week we'll win by passing the shortest day - it will be all uphill starting Wednesday.
The days will begin getting longer.
I like that light at the end of the tunnel.
Alas, the 2nd derivative of day length is initially quite small.
It doesn't get reasonable until the inflection point in March.

How did you get out of that anything where I'm accusing Biden. You need to take of the political tinted glasses.

Also I never blamed Biden, nice try by the way to sway the topic to something I did not say. It is a forum strategy used by many on many forms to through the person you are disagreeing with off balance and get them to argue a point they never made, thereby making it more difficult for them and making yourself look so much better

I said, Biden is in charge now, also asking when we can stop blaming Trump for everything and start owning the situation, since he is now in charge, and actually do something about it beyond posturing. Nice bill Joe signed there, but did you know hate crimes laws have been on the books for years…..the solution is not a new bill, it is enforcing the ones we already have

Interesting quote from the article "Rhetoric attacking the Chinese government from former President Donald Trump "

But I will say, notice, this seems to have started in your beloved California

When did BLM start up? was not in 2021. That is the time when the violence against asians started on this side of the country. And it was associated with the "Asians are not a minority because they make too much money" statement. And, the article that started this 'discussion', posted by Revoltingest, said it was for "money” never even mentioned the “China Virus”. you added that...I can only assume that it was thrown in to allow the addition of "it's Trumps fault", tso hat California, you, Biden and his crew are absolved of all guilt and responsibility for violence perpetrated against Asians, I mean, even though they are now in charge, its not their fault, its Trump’s…so then its OK, I mean tsk tsk it is bad but you know, it's Trump's fault. Its OK to hunt Asians down and rob them, of their money, because Trump called Covid the “China Virus”. Yes passing the buck and finger pointing always makes things better doesn't it

You might want to look into the case of microbiologist Kuanchung Kao, Also occurred in your beloved California, and I seriously doubt it was Trump’s fault, but if you try hard enough you might be able to figure out a way to blame him. You see part of the reason Asians, particularly Chinese, do not call the police in California (happens elsewhere too, just sunny California seems to have more cases of it) is because of the occasional violence perpetrated against them is perpetrated by those that are suppose to be protecting them. And the Chinese community tends to communicate and has a long memory.

Having a Chinese wife kind of makes me pay attention to such things beyond cherry picked news articles to justify blaming someone who is out of the picture

2nd derivative. It's been a long time since I heard or read math porn of that quality.
