Title: They say 50% of Asians so does it apply to you?
Post by: theking on May 03, 2023, 01:52:20 PM

1 in 2 Asian Americans do not feel safe in the US, survey finds

1 in 2 Asian Americans feel unsafe in the U.S.; nearly 80% of Asian Americans do not fully feel they belong and are accepted. Discrimination and lack of leadership representation contribute most to Asian Americans' low levels of belonging in the U.S., felt most acutely by young and female Asian Americans.

Hmmm... I feel safe where ever I go even when I was living in the "racist" South as many put it. Don't let the Leftie/Demmie tell you that since you're an Asian, you shouldn't feel safe because of all the white supremacists out there.

Having lived in neighborhood of blacks and white, deep North and South... I can honestly say that I get more hate and racist comments from blacks than whites and from Northerner than Southerner. Not saying that this applies to everyone but from my experiences only.

I feel safe when I am in a sea of minorities. 

Rule to be safe.  When you feel unsafe, start acting ghetto like pimp walking with that limp.  They will be more afraid of you so they will leave you off their list as a potential target.

I believe that’s a bit too high. Who were they surveying?

In public, I feel safe.  I didn't feel safe when I used to live in Fresno.
