    she's also the Speaker of the House.....and speaks for the entire country. Obviously, she had a unique issue to speak about in San Fran.

    Just because there is a handful of racist libs living in San Fran that somehow think Chinese-Americans have anything to do with how the Chinese Govt lied and mislead the world about the Chinese Virus doesn't require a response from the President.

    Their representative however should not have been encouraging folks to come down there and gatther around in large groups. She cost lives likely

    I consider it proven that cops conduct their "war on drugs" in a rather racist way, fixating their efforts on black people. I mean I did source that they do. So you know. There is that. And now you want me to believe those same cops aren't racist when researching other crimes. You need to do better to make me a believer.

    nope. I get to view the first page / half a page? for free... and the graphs prove it. So you know...

    When you arrest 2.7 times more black people than white people when both equally chip in with the crime.
    Than you do end up with a higher % of black people in jail compared to the ethnic make up of the US.
    Duh.

    Say the black population is 15%, and the white is 60%, 25% other. And you arrest the black community 2,7 times more often, than you end up with a jail of 15x2.7 = 40.5% black, about 42% white, and 17.5 other. now the % of the black population is 12 or something, and 33 in jail. Give or take. So you see how this is played out when a predominantly white police force is focused in arresting black people.

    something about anti-semitism popped up in your reply.

    What I'm saying is that pulling drivers over is a very common way to get drug busts. It's an easy thing to do and therefore it can easily lead to
    racial profiling as all that is required is seeing that a driver is black. However, pulling drivers over doesn't generally lead to murder convictions!

    Where abouts in the world are you? Can you post the relevant section about pulling drivers over at night?

    Well you were talking about ARRESTS, not CONVICTIONS.

    Well you clearly didn't read it properly at all. You said that people call what you say about Arians and Jews RACIST. I'm sure that you meant to say that they call it ANTI-SEMITIC.

    It's still the reason she went to San Fran. You find it unique a representative goes back to the place she/he represents? Geez... lol

    Oh... you think this was unique to the Chinese in San Fran?
    And as for your handful... something around 75% of customers dropped. And I'm guessing lots of GOP people liver there too.

    State and federal guidelines did not prohibit a thing at that time.
    So you know... fake hindsight argument.

    he promoted it all the way in early march that things should be open. A tweet of the 9th went like.. Corona only killed 22 people, the flu kills up to 70,000 and we're not doing a lock down... think about that.

    Not at all...especially to handle the unique problem that was facing San Fran at the time. With that said, it was still no excuse to encourage people to gather in large groups....very iiresponsible of the Speaker

    Not many republicans living in the San Fran area. If there were then Nancy would be out of a job. It's one of the most leftwing places in America.

    She was aware of how the Chinese Virus was spreading. She just didn't think it was that big a deal obviously

    He did NOT promote "all the time" that things remain open. He has clearly suggested as the virus spread that people practice social distancing and stay at home when possible.

    Nope. But it does prove that the police force in general is rather racist, and of ill will. They constantly stop black people, while statistics show that white population is more likely to have contraband. The entire idea of... well there are some bad apples everywhere... doesn't fly on this scale. And when cops are racist here, means they are racist everywhere else too. Get over it. And so I find it just to draw the same picture of driving while black, as in doing drug raids,... as in homicide.

    I already sourced it. I can see the upper half of the article, and it says so.

    Yeah well. When they find drugs on you and arrest you, than I dunno how you can get out of a conviction. One thing leads to an other. I'm absolutely not saying they were bogus arrests. White people are simply not being investigated like black people, hence less arrests and less convictions.

    Do note. When convicted,.. black people serve longer times than white people for the same offense and same criminal background. Racism is all over the place. And so... really? Is this new to you? You seem to be American but seem to be living in some cave not knowing what goes on outside.

    When people accuse black people of having more crime. I do blame the Arians and Jews for racially hunting down the black population to be tossed behind bars disproportionately to their crimes. That's a fact that happens in the US. I've been sourcing that plenty of times on numerous subjects. That's also right in line with the Apartheid state the US used to be. A person like the president was in his 20's when they ended making black people 2nd class citizens. Donald fully profited from being 1st class for his entire childhood and some college years. How do you think such first class citizens got raised? Signing the end of the Jim Crow laws, did clearly nothing about the culture they got taught.

    You're just making up fake news again and again here.

    Already responded to this stupid hindsight accusation.

    Well over 40,000 people voted rep against her.

    You're applying double standards. And you're not going to convince me that she has the same access to the experts that Donald has.

    You're free to debunk that he wasn't doing that before the 9th of march.

    Eventually... when he couldn't lie about this no more. Still means he lied.

    Unique to the West Coast...and apparently NYC....interesting.

    Also, all restaurants are closed in my state, not just Chinese restaurants. Wait.....isn't it xenophobic to call a restaurant Chinese?

    Yeah...that's not many when you consider the population of San Fran is nearly 900K

    What double standard? Of course she has access to the same experts.

    And I repeat. It is not up to me to debunk your assertions, it is up to you to prove them. Which thus far, you have not done.

    Acosta and CNN are fake news. One of Trumps greatest accomplishments is demonstrating this so effectively.

    Fake news and dishonest.

    New York and California went on lock down around the 20th of march.
    Pelosi was walking around in Chinatown in februari weeks before the lock down.

    what did I say that was fake and dishonest?

    Maybe Cali does't have to go on a forced state-wide lockdown if Nancy wasn't encouraging people to gather in groups and not take the Chinese Virus seriously. Really reckless on her part...dangerously deadly

    Not all people vote. Not everybody in San Fran lives in her district.
    To complain that she should comply with some lock down rules in February while they applied in March. Them are double standards and dishonest assertions. Fake. And last time I checked, the corona task force doesn't report to congress.
