College ‘rocked’ by anti-Asian hate crime … committed by drunk Asian

DC-NEWS 300X71By Blake Neff

The University of Southern California (USC) has been rocked by a hate crime that, it turns out, appears to be the work of one drunken Asian bullying another.

Sophomore Ivan Tsang, a Chinese student from Hong Kong, says he was simply minding his own business early Sunday morning when an assailant suddenly attacked him, throwing an egg at him while shouting “Ching chang chong motherfucker gay.”

Tsang tried to shake the attack off, but several minutes the assailant returned, throwing two additional eggs while using additional slurs, such as “The ching chong is still there.”

Tsang quickly took to Facebook to complain.

“I don’t have much left to say except that you guys have taught me a valuable lesson about racism and ignorance at USC,” Tsang said. “Coming to the US all the way from Hong Kong, I chose USC for the sole purpose of escaping the reality of racism, hoping to settle in a much more contemporary and diverse community. I guess I thought wrong.”

After the incident was reported, USC characterized the attack as a hate crime that would be punished sternly.

“Early Sunday morning a member of our USC community reported an incident of discrimination and prejudice that was threatening and unconscionable,” said Vice President for Student Affairs Ainsley Carry in a message to students. “This act was shameful and will not be tolerated at our university.”

The attack also drew the attention of Los Angeles police, and a write-up in The Washington Post, but soon the story took an intriguing turn, according to police detective R. Saafir.

“The suspect reached out to the victim on Facebook and tried to apologize,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “He says he’s Asian too, that he had a little too much to drink.”

That’s right: The supposed anti-Asian hate crime appears to have come from a fellow Asian.

Police and the school are both still investigating the matter, with possible charges for the student still forthcoming.
