One of the first stories about increased gun sales we wrote here at Bearing Arms early in the COVID-19 emergency was about Asian-Americans buying guns out of fear that they would be targetted for violence due to the Chinese origins of the virus.
At the time, I commented that doing so would be profoundly idiotic.
I also made the comment that I didn’t think anyone was going to blame them for it. On that, I was very, very wrong.
Now, a man who reportedly stabbed members of an Asian family is facing federal hate crime charges for his actions.
