I also think the terms used by government officials (i.e. "Kung Flu", "Chinese virus", etc.) and the media made Asian people to be walking targets.

Who in the govt called it kung flu? MSM tried to call trump on it.. but when asked who said it, they didnt have an answer...smh...Also watch the video I posted in the CV thread. It was ok to call it chinese virus until the media decided it was a good way to attack the administration.
