1 o I6 C4 M1 v0 P' `$ ZI don't know about you, but the last 20 days seem longer than my 20 years.
- K) _ h. ?3 A; A! f; n5 b+ h3 DThose of us who stand here today must have been reading, writing, arguing,

In a letter to 80-20, ABC still claims it only entertains. Why is joking
4 b& j* ?% V& p& ~3 D' habout killing Chinese so entertaining? Is it because we are always so nice?
4 D7 q( L3 ^; y* E: yMy friend's sweet 11-year old wants to write on his poster, "do not take : B9 e' h. [% E
advantage of us." I first didn't understand, then found out he meant "don't 7 j. J: x* S+ e0 G) F
take advantage of us because we are nice." That broke my heart!!! ABC and Mr, W% a! i! e0 J
. Kimmel, we hold you accountable for taking away our children's precious

difference. I ask him, what cultural difference do you mean? A culture of
