Hard to believe that Asian youth would wreck an Asian restaurant, but it's possible, I guess.

Glad no one was hurt but geeeebz?

Did one the vandels have a grudge? Yet none of them said a thing. Disgusting.

the vandals were.

If racism was involved (and it certainly could be) that'd make it that much worse!

I've read that vandals tend to hit in their own general neighborhood area. Those who travel to other parts of a city or another city are more likely to be drawn by group events that can be used as cover/excuse, like the BLM marches.

Total guess, but I'm guessing anyway that most of these kids imagined they could get safe home reasonably fast. Wonder if they organized online though.

Chaos agenda.

Stormers have been recruiting heavily on line the last few years. Guys like Andrew Tate and his neoNazi ideology have been attracting white high school boys here and in England.
