People are changing their profile pictures on social media to honour a San Francisco senior who died after being shoved to the ground in what his family alleges was a racially-motivated attack.

V. R, 84, died on Jan. 31 at San Francisco General Hospital from injuries sustained while on his morning walk in the Anza Vista neighbourhood a few days earlier, according to the GoFundMe organized by a family member.

He describes the victim as originally from Thailand, and a “nearly blind, gentle person, beloved by his family,” who was “violently taken from them.”

“Our family has endured multiple verbal anti-Asian attacks since the beginning of the pandemic and this time it was fatal. Racism has once again proven deadly. Anti-Asian racism has become a very serious danger to all Asian Americans, particularly in San Francisco,” he wrote.

The San Francisco District Attorney has filed murder charges and elder abuse causing death charges against the 19-year-old suspect in the case, Antoine Watson, calling the crime a “brutal homicide.”

The charges against Watson have not been proven in court. Local media reports said he pleaded not guilty during his first court appearance.

In a surveillance video showing the attack, a man can be seen running in from the right side of the frame and shoving the victim violently to the ground, where the senior remains prone. The man then appears to calmly walk away.

The murder has been especially painful to the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community which has been victimized by many incidents of violence, hate and racism since the start of the pandemic, with District Attorney Chesa Boudin describing it as a “horrific, senseless” attack.

a culture of individuals entitled to everything you got for the price of zero effort. If we don't comply, they will victimize our elderly, brutalize our weak, and burn our protectors to ground, crying victim all the way down.

African Americans complain about racism but they are also committing race crimes , they need their RaceCard™ confiscated:

I have not found anything on American media about this case:
Mexican married couple doused with gas by an African American because he hated Mexicans

So the fuckwit was blaming him for Covid? He wasn't even Chinese not that that should have made a difference, should I blame every German for WW2?

[ProHigh5er]

He was 'Shoved'? That's an understatement
That guy got blind sighted with the Madden hit stick.

It’s racist to call African-Americans “They” or say “Their” race card needs to be taken away. Racism is when you group a bunch of people together into one group and judge them as one. However I do think that hate crimes committed against other races is under reported.

Had this asshole done that in Thailand, he wouldn’t have lived long enough to make it to a court appearance.
The elderly in Thailand are not to be trifled with.
Hope the cunt gets strapped to a gurney and takes the needle.
