Poll of the Day > Asian Contestant from SURVIVOR was Attacked by a Crazy WHITE WOMAN!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

37 y/o Former Survivor: Fiji Contestant Michelle Yi who is now a Pilates Instructor said she needed several stitches after she was hit in the head with a METAL BATON by a homeless woman who also assaulted 2 other asian people near the Santa Monica boardwalk and thinks it may have been racially motivated given the attack on asian people during the pandemic!!

She was opening her studio before 6am when she saw a disheveled woman near the front and was yelling all sorts of things such as "You stole my identity", "You're a prostitute"

This comes as attacks in Southern California tries to crack down on homeless encampments which is blamed for the crime, graffiti and arson

Michelle said Santa Monica has a homeless problem and otld the woman, ma'am, you can't be here. you need to leave

That's when she lunged at her with knife and baton and hit her and stabbed her left bicepts at which the woman then hit Michelle on the head that split open her face

Yi said one of her students immediately called 5-0 but only received a message that the operators were busy and eventually got help when they saw a police car come by

Yi was hospitalized and received several stitches but suffered no fractures

She remained confused on why it happened to her but suspects race may have played a role and said "I can't say why she attacked me of all people. But she was a white lady who attacked 3 other people that morning. Another victim was an elderly asian man who was walking his dog and the third was a person of colour. I can't prove whether it was racially motivated or not but she was screaming all sorts of awful things at me. The facts are what they are"

Police confirmed the attacks but suggested it may have been mental health issue and was off her meds maybe.

Yi says she has no family near her as her parents are in Taiwan and siblings live in the Bay Area but hopes there are more police presence in the morning hours since it was dark when this happened.

Attacks on asians around the world started when the pandemic happened after conservative groups blamed china for it where asians got the brunt of the racial attacks after Trump started calling it "Kung Flu"

Yi was 23 on her season and placed 10th on her Season of Survivor after being part of a majority alliance but after a tribal swap she became a minority in her tribe where she and another asian contestant, Stacy Kimball were up to being voted out and Michelle ended up the tribal boot..

Do you live in an area with a homeless problem?

I don't think I live in an area with a homeless problem. I think this was not an issue of homelessness, but racism. When it comes to racism, Asians have always received the brunt of it all.

...so just a homeless person with mental health problems that you're trying to spin into "RACISMMM!!!!" just because she's white? That in itself is kinda racist.

...and if I'm reading that poorly written sentence right (with no quotation marks), the attack was preceded by the victim telling the assailant she had to vacate the area. Why are you pretending that this was racially motivated?

lolwut? No, just no.

And, again, given the clear circumstances (as highlighted above), why are you pretending that this was racially motivated?

That's not unusual in America now is it. I still recall the stories of White people calling the police on Black people because they were barbecuing.

Hey Duckbear, how about some wholesome topics like the difference between wolves and coyote Full Throttle made?

Asians do have it rough but history has shown blacks and Jews have it harder. So brunt of it all is hyperbolic.

No, it's more important to focus on people's race and gender when they do bad things. Oh yeah, but only 1 race.
