You have been making the same stupid comment for weeks now. Think of something new or shutup.
You need help!!🙏🤯😳
@judie suh Yes, I need help. I need you join me so we make a huge BLM mural with poo.
@Aedammair Ornóra you’re not racist, but…😉
@Michael Chabler I am not a racist, but if you are white, you are my target
There’s a 1987 documentary “Who Killed Vincent Chin.” It’s available on YouTube and PBS.
Why were the murderers not indicted for murder..?
@S McDonald It’s been years since I saw it so I can’t recall. It’s here on Youtube, definitely worth watching.
Thank you..🙏👍🧐😔😤
@judie suh You’re welcome. 🙂
So, when can we expect a newer version of Who Killed Vincent Chin? Lip service is great but how about some money to back it up
I remember hearing the story on the news, so horrible and extremely depressing. I didn’t know until recently that his killers basically got away with it.
His killers were never punished for his death?? Amerikkklan justice system.
I see what you are doing there
What about Hunter Biden’s gun being found near a school 😳
No one cares. Away with you troll.
Maybe _quality_ content would get you more subscribers, Billy.
How the GOP works = random comments and disinformation = truth
Human rights?
Wow
“…and it led to the passing of the hate crime”
🤣 What? You mean bill? It led to the passing of some sort of hate crime bill or law or whatever, right?
