Do you think I couldn't the same thing for the contrary?
“The real question is what do we do with that data? Is it to reinforce a certain narrative that we need more policing?” asks Jason Wu, co-chair of GAPIMNY-Empowering Queer & Trans Asian Pacific Islanders, one of over 85 Asian American and Pacific Islander advocacy groups that oppose Congress’s latest bill.
Your point before appeared to be that not supporting the bill makes one a neo-Nazi. I just debunked that with the info I provided you, unless you want to call those 85 Asian American and Pacific Islander advocacy groups all neo-Nazis.

No scratching someone would not have counted as Lynching under the bill. That's a stupid thing to say. Almost as stupid as Rands's objections to the bill.
What do you personally define as lynching? If you're not killing someone, would you still consider that lynching? I do not agree with re-defining lynching, which is why I was not a supporter of the anti-lynching bill. Words have meanings. If being scratched or hurt in another minor way can now be considered lynching, then the word means nothing anymore.
