On 10/28, the night of our first protest, Mr. Kimmel said, "today is a weird5 j& r0 y- U3 g0 b+ g' w
day...I am sorry if I offended anyone." I ask ABC, who is the weird one? & p1 c3 t! J/ }0 G; A9 x; H" i7 E8 y

3 X9 E* J+ o. c, X2 N* N1 A2 l* XIn a letter to 80-20, ABC still claims it only entertains. Why is joking 2 F. T- ?) s! K( Y8 Y8 l
about killing Chinese so entertaining? Is it because we are always so nice? 7 H" a3 q5 {/ O9 D- D5 n$ p
My friend's sweet 11-year old wants to write on his poster, "do not take

hard work, respect, harmony versus a culture of violence and racial hatred?
