Lawmaker defends comment on Asians- Call for voters to simplify their names not racially motivated, Terrell Republican says

What. The. Fuck. So...saying only people of Asian decent, with Asian names should 'simplify' (aka make it sound more white) their name isn't racially motivated?

Quote:
Brown later told Ko: “Can’t you see that this is something that would make it a lot easier for you and the people who are poll workers if you could adopt a name just for identification purposes that’s easier for Americans to deal with?”

I have no words. No. Actually. I do - people of Asain decent are not American? Everything is about making it easier for White people? FUCK YOU. The stupid thing is, the reason why many Asian people have an "english name" is to avoid being made fun of it and the racism that comes from having a non-anglo name.
