0:00 [Music] all right some very very uh troubling news just happened this past week i'm just kidding i don't know i don't even know what it is that's the end of the video that is one of those start like opposite news where you like start off like it's sad but then it's probably i probably should do it's like jk's new we should always cheer when he goes all right we got some ████ up ████ that happened let's go anthony that's probably like the two seconds of happiness we're gonna get before he crushes it because you know steve green does that he goes all right guys there's gonna be sad one then it's like some guy got a usb cord in his dick and that is pretty sad this isn't one of those right this is making it way worse all right maybe we should redo it interrupt us man yeah why don't you let us see you guys the show you know do a

0:51 different article please hey this is jk news not just seriously you know what it's just important because we were talking just before this like it's it's important for the jk platform to also bring asian awareness stuff to light and and that's why i just felt like we should talk about oh it's not another one of those asian hate things again god damn there's too many going on right now so a woman was followed and fatally stabbed in her chinatown apartment in new york oh ████ man chinatown what's going on in chinatown right now where there's all this asian hate and then there's no more chinese triads or like there used to be hella asian gangs like oh yeah i think they are i think they reformed themselves and then the green dragons like lawyers and stuff now we got to bring back asian gangs bro i mean what was better this is real like this is honestly speaking right because we grew up in that gang era like right here

1:43 uh because i remember in chinatown like some um one of those shopkeepers were getting harassed right from some you know guys that look like gang members and whatever um and then you saw these two old chinese dudes roll up and then that this one guy pulled up his shirt he had two ████ guns right here and then the kids looked at it and they just ran and i was like holy ████ that's a mafia stuff right and i'm like this was happening you know all the way up until the early 2000s where uh there were a lot of tough dudes just like keeping this peace i guess you know you didn't see any violence in chinatown but right now it's like where are they are they all in jail and which one's better is it better to have those guys there exploiting the neighborhood but at least old ladies are safe uh like they're because they're still

2:33 extorting their own people you know what i mean like the gangs aren't angels yeah but is that better or is or is it you know now that the world is a little bit safer but then you it's not because you got these guys coming in beating up all old asians and ████ this lady right here is not even old she her name's christina younoli she's actually a creative producer at a digital music platform splice yeah and she's uh and this was a 25 year old man who was arrested in killing and yeah pretty much she was 35 that's what it is so it's young people just damn yeah stabbed to death inside her lower manhattan apartment early sunday by a man who had followed her from the street and into her building wow the women who police identify as christina yunilee was the latest person of asian descent injured or killed in a string of random attacks in new york city many of them committed by people who had severe mental illness that's the other side of that right that's the side that like

3:23 unfortunately we don't really hear enough about is a lot of these asian attacks are from people that are just severely mentally ill so so when they say like asian hate right like maybe some of them are racially motivated but not all of them like you're saying there's just a lot of people that need help that are just nuts that are biting people punching people for no reason yeah no i think i think i think it's both right i think it's both i think a lot of them are racially motivated but i also see i've seen the videos that i've seen on the asian hay stuff you get they end up being mentally ill right did you play devil's advocate how come it's not like uh a string of attacks on the other races too i don't i don't know i don't think it's just like a real category media i think it's media yeah it's muted so wait they're not attacking white people and all that stuff it's mainly asians that are being uh attacked and then so obviously asians in response to it are saying that oh my god there's

4:13 been a 361 increase in asian related crimes and stuff since the coronavirus so misinformation about like it being from china and blah blah has spurred some sort of like you know insecurity or hate but at the same time when i'm seeing these articles if anything from like the writer's point of view or from the devil's advocate point of view you're always talking about like oh it's mental illness mental illness but if you look at the patterns and stuff and again i don't want to be saying something unpopular but also most of the time it's also all black people but like they never talk about that you know what i'm saying so i think you're just seeing kind of like a melting pot of a lot of ████ up stuff at the same time for sure for sure and on the one hand you can be like maybe this is a pattern whether it be asian people whether it be mentally ill people whether it be because the pattern is what i'm seeing um on all the videos of the attacks it's usually like uh it is it is a lot it is

5:04 for some reason it is a lot of black and asian and is it because they're you know so it's it's obviously not middle class or wealthy black people or like whatever right but it's just the down and out people so is it is it because the community is doing it or is it because it just so happens that they're uh a part of that poor minority group that is in new york and it just so happens that they're black so for example right we're in an asian neighborhood so there's a lot of asians here so obviously the burglaries are gonna be a bunch of asians that are committing the crime right so in all these neighborhoods oakland new york there's a lot of poor black people right so then it's not happening in georgia it's not happening in tennessee so is it that's that's what i'm confused of is it

5:54 like is it is is it just because like they're super poor or like they're just on drugs or like i don't think it's a race thing i think it's like some kind of issue is going on that we don't understand yet yeah i think it's like what anthony said it's a it's a combination of all these things together that create this kind of like in a way like a weird phenomenon and i think for most people what they deduce is just from not from the outside and what the media headlines are it's easy to say it's just race on race crime yeah that's that's the bear level but then as you dig into it then you start to see oh maybe there's a little men on this aspect maybe there's a some aspect from you know racism about the coronavirus maybe there's an aspect about just like what you said joe about the the poor communities and just being in a community together and it's just like

6:44 that's the easiest target unfortunately but i think a lot of the times too some of these people that commit these crimes they are looking for easy targets and i think the combination is like if you're like just watching the like the asian news and you're not really looking into it too much you are going to just think oh black people hate asians and that's all you're going to come up with but yeah you're not willing to see the fact that like in the demographic of homeless like or just dismally low-income crazy people there are actually a lot of black people in that 100 in that exact demographic and those attacks i think even in the mind of a ████ mentally ill just far gone person even that guy in his crazy ass mind still sees asians as a perfect ideal victim 100 i i mean if if you tell a crazy person regardless of what race right yeah if you go this ████ came from china and the reason

7:34 why all all of us are getting sick and we have to be in quarantine is because of chinese um you know a lot of americans also don't know the difference between asian american and chinese from china they call us all chinese yeah so so even cyclists is that ████ so if a normal so if a normal american right a racist baby is four year old normal as in like if an average american who who can actually communicate they're not mentally ill if they don't even know the difference between an asian american and a china from china you know chinese from china then what's gonna happen when a mentally ill person on drugs sees an asian person walking down the street they're going to be like you're the ████ problem he's probably paranoid schizophrenic already yeah so that's the thing you already had hella conspiracy theories before this yeah so it's an ideal paranoid schizophrenic response to be like oh

8:24 this is the enemy i have to kill them dude you see like you see it a lot like yeah you really see these patterns i saw this one video this uh this black dude on a subway just like having these delusions about like how this asian dude is like in his face right and he's just like this old chinese dude and he's just on the he see i even did it right now he's probably not even chinese who knows what he is he could be korean bro but in my eyes and my expert opinion you're ████ i think he was trying to ████ race i think but he's just standing there and he he's trying his best to like just ignore the guy but this guy's getting in his face and just creating that delusion that that talk of like you know you're the enemy blah blah blah so i i think it is a weird combination of just all these different variables because that's what we have to think about it's all nuanced right like if we if we read a headline we we have to kind of look into it a little bit more and yeah i think the harmful thing is

9:15 thinking it's any one of those things isolated exactly it's not gonna ████ all of it up like dude it is a perfect storm of all these like different ████ factors yeah and then the media doesn't help either because looking it up the thing is what sucks is it's not as simple as like black people hate asian people or any it's so ████ stupid to think of it that way no it's just like um it's more like there's mentally like ill people that that are just taking out their anger on what they believe should be happening but at the same time they're not even operating on logic and this is not to excuse the thing or whatever this phenomenon exists but then it also we can't talk about it because if you talk about it then it's like oh you just so racist against black people and i'm like no that's not even the case because i don't even see them as black people you know what i mean i see them as like like if you saw asian

10:05 crackhead that's not an that's not normal asian people yeah that's a crackhead that's a ████ crap so when christmas crackhead yeah you see a black dude like stabbing up an old asian grandma you don't go oh black people added again it's like community that's not the ████ yeah that's a black community yeah that's so stupid right but then that's what turned i think that's what happens because you see it over and over and over and you think like oh ████ what happened here you know unfortunately it's a more interesting headline what's gonna grabs people's attention more than asian hate crime you know or or just or putting that certain narrative out there when people are scrolling and they see that they're gonna look into it and click that that is the irony though because if most of the victims are asians uh and for that same reason too where it's like you know maybe asians are just

10:55 the easiest victims or whatever in some sort of weird subconscious understanding that everybody happens to have then it is an asian oh yeah yeah you know for sure for sure so it's it's just i think it's just all s█████ regardless but the fact that it keeps on happening it is painting a really really unique problem in today's generation that needs to be talked about even if the answer is complex do they have an intent from this guy is this guy just well here's the thing this guy you know because there's surveillance video that shows him like following her into her place um and you know she was found dead like a what was it a bathtub oh my god for real when i when i did a little bit of a deep dive into this it's um so guess there's a uptick in like you know these crazy violent you know crimes right but you know statistically it's all over in

11:46 major cities petty crime as well as just all sorts of crime is happening so even in asian dominant places like hawaii right and so one of the issues i think is because from these cities uh they want to change the way that they police and so prosecutors aren't prosecuting so let's say and and repetitive offenders are being let loose especially in california and if you see the rap sheet criminal justice reforms yeah if you see the rap sheet of these guys i guarantee you that they have a ████ ton of assistance i had like seven assaults right see there you go this guy mr nash has a history of misdemeanor arrest court records show including an incident in september of grand street station near the building where the killing occurred when a 62 year old man told the police that mr nash had punched him in the face after after he swiped his metro card for

12:37 another passenger like so my question is right why is the state failing where why aren't these guys locked up and why are they allowed to be let on the loose because if you hear every single one of these stories of you know this crazy dude ████ up this asian lady whatever right it's never their first time they've been violent before to other people to people of their own community whatever right so it's not their first time committing a crime and all of their victims aren't asian you know they ████ up an old black dude or whatever right so like if you see the rap sheet my whole thing is why is there an agenda right now for the prosecutors to let loose everybody and to not prosecute this is the one this is the number one thing that's just mind-blowing it's so bad to

13:27 the point that some of the people they pick up today they just got caught for the same crime 48 to 72 hours ago for real yeah like some guy stealing a car gta and he just got he just stole the car three days ago got processed when you do an actual gta yeah and so what blows my mind to is that so this is happening in oakland new york la and out of all places honolulu so even really wow yeah cause so i have you know friends in different police departments in different cities right and then so i'm tying all these dots together and i'm like what's going on in these uh predominantly left-wing cities now i don't get like too political but there is a political agenda because if all the prosecutors are like left-leaning or they're on that spectrum of the you know team and they don't believe in prosecuting

14:17 right now and also there's the whole thief on the police and all this stuff going on so what's happening all over is our friend from uh our our cop friend here from la and and in honolulu they both say cops are doing their jobs they're catching bad guys right and so like one incident in honolulu's there's a guy that's constantly groping women and he's ████ out there molesting all these women and so they catch him but then the prosecutor doesn't want to prosecute because it's not a severe crime so what he ends up doing is he goes back out and he touches girls and he basically gets crazier and crazier up until the point where they're like we gotta do something about this dude and then it got worse because he feels it like untouchable yeah he is empowered now right so when we're seeing these things where like you know all these people are getting

15:07 stabbed and beat it's because they're allowed to do it so they're positively reinforced they're not being punished so maybe one one time it'll start with a punch in the face the next it's a ████ stabbing and it just keeps going and going and going so my i play i put the blame on the prosecutors in our justice system oh 100 who don't want to um incarcerate and rehabilitate in the right way because i'm like this is the reason why it's happening and i think it's a stupid reason to be like oh it's just because black people hate us i think that's the stupidest thing that's a cop hour yeah [Music]
