You have to be Asian to complain about black people killing you.
The family of a Chinatown woman brutally stabbed to death is now suing New York City and the NYPD officers who responded to initial 911 calls from neighbors.
The estate of Christian Yuna Lee filed a lawsuit against the city of New York and 10 members of the New York City Police Department in Manhattan Criminal Court earlier this month. Lee was allegedly killed by a homeless man with a lengthy rap sheet, who was caught on video slipping into her building and tailing her up to her apartment last year
Lee, a 35-year-old Korean American creative producer, was found stabbed more than 40 times in the bathtub of her apartment on Chrystie Street in Manhattan on Feb. 13, 2022.
Race is a social construct, btw
Police say they arrested a homeless man, Assamad Nash, 25, who was found hiding under Lee’s mattress. Nash has since pleaded not guilty to murder, burglary, and sexually motivated burglary charges in connection to the Lee’s death. The lawsuit notes that Lee’s apartment was across the street from Sara D. Roosevelt Park, which had long attracted crime, drug users, and the homeless.
Months before Lee’s death, Sala Miah, a 51-year-old Bangladeshi GrubHub delivery worker, was slashed in the face, stabbed to death, and robbed of his bicycle at the same park. Joseph Sandoval was arrested that same month for Miah’s murder.
The city of New York “was aware of and failed to control significant public safety conditions in Sara D. Roosevelt Park prior to and on the night of February 13, 2022, including but not limited to violent crime such as the October 16, 2021, stabbing death of Sala Miah, a delivery worker, just outside Sara D. Roosevelt Park at Chrystie Street and Hester Street, two blocks from Ms. Lee’s apartment, and inadequate fencing and nighttime lighting,” says the filing obtained by Fox News Digital.
“The dangerous conditions in Sara D. Roosevelt Park, a public park owned, maintained and operated by Defendant CITY OF NEW YORK, were known to Defendant CITY OF NEW YORK and contributed to the harm and suffering of Plaintiff and the interference with Plaintiff’s private interests,” the lawsuit says. “By failing to control dangerous conditions in Sara D. Roosevelt Park, Defendant intentionally, recklessly, and negligently created a nuisance which substantially and unreasonably interfered with Plaintiff’s rights and private interests.”
That is indeed a very Asian framing of things.
In America, we have this idea of “personal independence” somehow meaning that the cops don’t have a duty to defend us. Or it has been turned into that. Apparently.
I don’t understand how you pay taxes if the government won’t take every precaution to assure your physical safety. This is the most basic purpose of a government.
