Twin Cities couple Alvin Moua and Vanishia Yang say they are sad and angered by a racist note left on their door this week.
When Moua returned home Wednesday, he noticed a piece of paper stuck to his front door in Woodbury. I thought it might have been a notice sign, Moua said. As I got closer to it and actually read the note itself, yeah, it was pretty disturbing,
This was the note plastered on his front door:
Were watching you f c take the chinese virus back to china. We dont want you hear infecting us with your diseases!!!!!!!!!!
The note was signed, Your friendly neighborhood.

"Friendly"? Woodbury is a fairly affluent suburb of St. Paul - lots of McMansions. FWIW, by their surnames I'm guessing this couple isn't even Chinese but probably Hmong, and judging from their apparent ages they were probably born here (a lot of Hmong refugees came to this area in the '70s). I hope they find the asshole that left the note - sadly, it's probably someone in their immediate neighborhood.

Don't these idiots realize that Asian Americans have exactly the same chance of carrying the virus as they do? Unless they have recently been in China, or specifically Wuhan, they are no more susceptible to the disease than any other ethnic group.
