亲爱的朋友们，

今天，我们来到这里，花了多长时间？一小时？两小时？对我而言，是漫长的 20
- X7 k# O# C0 i% A4 @年！20 年前，我满怀理想踏上了这片自由的热土。或许，是因为听了太多的美国之音0 j. s9 K* K# v, E. m
吧。20 年后，我的儿子却与我一道，并肩抗议 ABC 传播种族仇恨和暴力的言论。这幅
& p( X" W& @8 J场景有多么不和谐？
; v& f/ S1 f; W* {8 y5 U9 B1 r9 s+ j% e, J; `6 j& L3 R' N
我问儿子，是否权且将“杀光中国人”的说法当作一个笑话。他说，这种言论表明

我不了解各位的情况，但过去的 20 天比我所经历的 20 年更加漫长。今天，在场

向“谁”抱歉，算得上哪门子真正的道歉？向宁静的生活被从此破坏的中国人道歉了吗1 U& X3 @$ x9 |9 Z$ [

7 v8 T( }7 {3 X) e: W
4 d, ?+ Y) @3 W 10 月 29 日，Kimmel 先生将这一切归罪于文化差异的理念，多么可笑。我请问，- n' x3 Z" o+ R5 O6 @: D
您所谓的“文化差异”是什么意思？勤奋工作、赢得尊重、热爱和谐的文化？还是暴力4 a. `& X6 B m6 C; {+ M
和种族仇恨的文化？这二者区别何在？我相信我们与 Kimmel 之间的确存在着天壤之别

8 R+ g/ {& z" T6 w2 p0 A1 k$ v% Q: k. G ABC，请别再拿“文化差异”掩饰自己的错误！除了印第安原住民，我们所有人都

思，是否我们要求太多了？要求太多了？！令我深感失望的是，在这封道歉信中，1 T S& M; B, K3 f$ ?$ R
Kimmel 先生仍胆小地躲在 6 岁顽童的身后。拿出点勇气来，Kimmel 先生！你不会以

On 10/28, the night of our first protest, Mr. Kimmel said, "today is a weird

In a letter to 80-20, ABC still claims it only entertains. Why is joking ' P i2 b/ v- M- z* A- O1 j
about killing Chinese so entertaining? Is it because we are always so nice?
