You had 18 years to teach your kids it's wrong to loot, steal, set buildings ablaze, block traffic, laser peoples' eyes, overturn cars, destroy buildings and attack citizens. Who failed who?"
In another, she reportedly wrote: "Hundreds of blacks shot and many killed (including children) by other blacks every week. Over a thousand Officers violently injured, some permanently, by rioters. Anarchists rioting in major cities every night, which has caused billions of dollars of destruction to private and public property. And you still think Police Officers are the problem. You are an idiot."

Vietnamese Americans have always tended to be, on average, staunch conservatives. Probably some self-selection bias going, considering that most of them are the offspring of families who fled the commies after the fall of Saigon.
Her comments, while absolutely true in their own right, are rather one-sided. Still, I don't see how her takes could be considered offensive, let alone racist. Definitely not cancel-worthy if you ask me.
