‘Is This Patriot Enough?’: Asian American Official Shows Military Scars, Condemns Racist Violence
The one drinking water isn't even listing ðŸ˜â€
Wtf 13k disliked? That’s racist, c’mon. Believe in Karma.
looks like a scar from a clamshell thoracotomy
BLM forever!! George floyd is true Hero!
Well said sir. Thank you for your service and your patriotism. 🇺🇸
SIR YOU ARE AN AMERICAN, YOU WEAR THE UNIFORM OF THE US ARMY YOU ARE AN AMERICAN, PROBABLY MORE THAN HALF THE DEADBEATS IN THIS COUNTRY.
🇺🇸ðŸ‘Â
I like this guy alot and anyone who spreads racism is disgusting but that being said how come everyone is pulling the race card now!? Now the Asians? Don't give racist people the time of day is my point. God bless this man though.
Well said
Or call them British Americans.
Sick and tired of all the noise and not only a mere 13% of the population makes. Hispanics ? Never hear about them complaining and they do deal with prejudice. And yes, Asians. Let‘s not forget what we did to the Americans of Japanese background during WWII. So let‘s start communicate with each other snd stop legislating these issues. Respect to this American patriot🇺🇸ðŸ‘Â
Even though I’m not American I feel the urge to tell this man: “Sir, thank you for your serviceâ€Â.
You, and people like you, are what make this country great!!! Thank you for your service!!!
This is like that movie you are thinking about
I know for a fact that the very people who question his patriotism never fought or took a bullet for their country, and that's with the fact that he served, but if he didn't that wouldn't made him less of an American, sad he had to go through that just to prove a point.
A man sees who is attacking Asian Americans the most.
The media can not hide it no matter how hard they try and the Asians are calling it out.
A man thinks the msm has a better chance with ufo's
Why do people think being "American" is being a race? No. Its a nationality. It should be worn as a badge of honor. And this man wears it proud. Im glad to have men like him fighting for our country every single day. Without their sacrifice. We would not have any of the luxuries we have today. I thank this man for his service and I hope he lives a long and happy life.
3:29 Yes… it is now known that "relative to the Observer (Life) all other Observers (Life) exist behind the Observer in awareness in the supporting biological information timeline. Time is not relative to multiple Observers at the "same" time… time is relative to multiple Observers in multiple places throughout spacetime as Life divides within itself. The Fine Structure Constant shows E doing the Moon Dance using the asymmetry of the weak force {a} and constant increasing time dilation to maintain E a constant: (e{a})/t=E.

thirteen thousand thumbs down?????????????????????? I guess he's just not patriotic enough for some haters out there.
While I hear you sir, and I truly deeply sympathize with you, because you just might be that one exception in the bunch who isn't racist, but a majority of us, if not all can agree that Asians (especially) Chinese are more racist than the average white or black man. The way they treat Africans over there in China is more than words can describe. Just horrible.
First they took away dodgeball, then they gave trophies just for showing up, then they started teaching to hate America and all her accomplishments, then they instituted as a right that those born male should be allowed access to the little girls room, and it is all sanctioned by the media, hollywood home of perverts and predators, all over seen by the liberal democrats and judges they put in place, now it’s against the law to be patriotic! How does it make you feel? Like we have a generation of lambs being lead to slaughter? I know it makes this sonofaWWIIveteran :face_vomiting:. Keep voting not for lifetime politicians but those with the values you know deep in your heart are true and right. Thank you for listening. P.S. border crisis, employment crisis, gas crisis, Middle East war crisis, inflation, uncontrolled spending of your hard earned tax dollars goes on. Just remember it’s all President Trump’s fault. Defund law enforcement now! Yipee
MY RESPECT
For me he is true hero and even if his not look american but for serving his life to your country, it is enough to see who really a true Amerian and a true hero.
I am sorry sir in this country it's not enough for some people. My husband In uniform was denied service in a restaurant in Alabama because he was black. Didn't matter to them he had just returned home from Vietnam. I will never forget it.
Thanks for fighting for the white man's army and help keeping us in control of the world 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
My name is Kyle. Thank you for your words and your actions. I appreciate you and am thankful for you. One love.
Thank you for your service Mr. Wong. you are a GREAT PATRIOT!
My mom said he doesn't represent Asians
He should be giving the classes to the military and congress and the WH.
I mean he's not white so anything he's saying doesn't reach to those confederate stale pieces of white bread or white supremacist.
Don't matter to them.
The question I'd like to ask:
Who was elected/chosen to be the arbiter of patriotism, and how did we elect this person and what exactly are the criteria for being a patriot? So far. except for one thing and that's committing treasonous acts , I haven't seen any of those publicly mentioned.
I'd like to see the qualifications of the people who claim others are not American and see if they fit the bill of "arbiter of patriotism" to make sure we have the right people in that position.
Seriously, it's foolish for anyone to point at another person who has an opinion or a different lifestyle and say "You're not American" Like what the heck is that supposed to mean? You don't get the right to suddenly say, oh because someone disagrees with me, they are unamerican.
To the 13000 tumbs down put on a uniform 🇺🇸ðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘Â🇺🇸
Reminds me of walking tall
True American Hero!! Very Proud of him!!
Is there a reason the title of this video doesn't mention Lee Wong's name? I don't think I've ever seen a video of a public official referred to solely as a white American… You can keep the Asian-American portion, but he also deserves to be called by his name.
Most gangster 69 year old in history, also the most American man Ive seen
haha what a looser
13 k dislikes, what'sa matter, did he hit a nerve? Sorry the truth hurts, but He's more of a American than most of us.
america is not even they’re homeland, go back to europe then
You walk with you head high you're my Amercan hero!!!! Thank you for your service to America 💜 please don't stop what you do
Thank you for your service to America
What a bich. Don't show scars as if we owe you something.
He is right!
