Two news items caught my eye since noon, both leave me livid and wanting to take a baseball bat to people. Which, under normal circumstances, is not something a rational man should do, nor something one should want to do.
A man who "specializes in killing Asian people" was arrested after attacking an Asian female police officer in San Francisco's Chinatown on Friday. [--] The assailant, identified as Gerardo Contreras, is believed to be homeless, according to KTVU. Documents obtained by ABC7 show Contreras has prior arrests, including aggravated assault, elder abuse and assaults on other officers elsewhere in California.
Prior to the attack, Contreras allegedly said that he "specializes in killing Asian people" and that "Chinese people don't belong here."

So he fits in perfectly, in San Antonio,Texas.
