Police have arrested a 54-year-old man on suspicion of stabbing two Asian women at a bus stop.

....

Police identified the man as San Francisco resident Patrick Thompson, ..

ABC7 reporter Kate Larsen tweeted that police located the suspect after a photo of him was disseminated to officers in the field.

He was taken into custody hours after allegedly stabbing the women, aged 65 and 85, while they waited for a bus on Market Street.

...

The 85-year-old woman was identified as Chui Fong Eng. Her grandson told KPIX-TV that she had finished her grocery shopping in Chinatown and was waiting for the bus when she was attacked.

...

Witnesses told the station that the assailant was walking down Market Street clutching a knife when he approached a bus stop, stabbed the women, and then walked away.

..

Police have not said whether they believe the woman were specifically targeted or if the stabbing might be a hate crime, but officers are reportedly not ruling it out.

...

The stabbing is the latest in a rising number of unprovoked attacks targeting Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. during the coronavirus pandemic.

Earlier this week, two Asian women were hospitalized after being attacked by a man with a cement block inside their Baltimore business.

Also this week, a Chicago man was charged with attempted murder after allegedly striking a woman with his truck moments after shouting anti-Asian remarks.

Over the weekend, two Asian women were walking down the street in New York City when a suspect demanded they remove their masks. Video posted by the New York Police Department's Hate Crime Task Force showed one of the women, a 31-year-old, was then struck with a hammer.

Division is the quest of the demonrats, if they can keep this going and the kaos it fosters they can continue to remain in control continue to enrich themselves and their families and keep us all in fear in one way or another. Remember the color alerts after 911? we have been had for many years

I got slammed by a couple of posters on this very forum a few weeks ago for saying exactly that! It’s human nature to stick with ppl who look like you. It’s how humanity has survived for thousands of years. Heck, “diversity” wasn’t even “a thing” until after WWII.

However, now ppl are expected to ignore this basic survival instinct developed over thousands of years in just a few decades, with the punishment being called derogatory names by our fellow human beings if we’re slow to acclimate to a rapidly changing society. Well, good luck with that, dumbass progressives!

Democrats only know two ways of doing things - control or destroy.

What they cant control they destroy.

Their states
The US
The world

1. Always and inevitably, each of us underestimates the number of stupid individuals in the world.

2. The probability that a certain person is stupid is independent of any other characteristic of the same person.

3. A stupid person is one who causes harm to another person or group without at the same time obtaining a benefit for himself or even damaging himself.

4. Non-stupid people always underestimate the harmful potential of stupid people.

5. The stupid person is the most dangerous person that exists.

We’ve all known at least one - a person utterly, selflessly, faithfully well-meaning - and as STUPID as a sandpaper condom, who does ungodly damage without meaning to.

Hey! I was just trying to HELP!!!

The 5 laws are an infallible detector of stupid people - any who cant grasp them are stupid.

Leftists mean well and really want to help, but they violate the 5 laws by giving power to stupid people, but the same invariably destroy anything they are given power over.

By embracing the Left (well-meaning stupid people) the democrats have assured their own destruction - just a matter of time.

Small comfort
