Tall white woman shaking her head

in a running trail while jagging toward me.  She is between 25-35 y.o,  about 6ft tall, and build.

Never seen her in my life.  Disprove of my postings, either my blog or my Washington Post posts.....there were 2 failed attempt beheadings meant to kill me, and my wrongful termination civil case is dismissed, yet she is disproves of my posts by shaking her head, these princes and princesses that is now running the government nowadays.

The inherently racism of the USPTO

but doesn't seem to realize it. 

Excerpt from:
http://www.theslants.com/the-difference-between-the-redskins-case-and-ours/

"It’s important to remember that of the 800+ trademark applications for variations of the term “slant,” only one was denied for being a “racial slur.” In other words, the Trademark Office never considered it to be a slur against Asians until an Asian applied. The Trademark Office clearly expressed that the only reason why they associated our trademark application with a racial slur was because of my race. They wrote, “it is uncontested that applicant is a founding member of a band…composed of members of Asian descent…thus, the association.” In other words, if I were white, like every other applicant in the history of the country, it would have not been questioned to begin with.

There are numerous other legal and social differences, but it should be made clear that the intent, as well as the reaction from the community, are completely different. In that sense, they are not analogous. The only commonality between the two cases is the trademark law that is at stake: Section 2(a) of the Lanham Act, the same law which has been inconsistently applied for decades and has been disproportionately affecting minorities for about 70 years.

Also, while I personally believe in the power of reappropriation as a tool to create social change (as I explain at YOMYOMF here and here, TEDxUofW here, at RaceFiles, and to TIME), our legal argument isn’t constructed on this point. You can read our entire brief and all of our arguments, via JDSupra.
The whole thing is a bit frustrating because it is much more difficult to prove that something is not offensive than to prove that it is. That being said, there has never been a formal challenge or objection by members of the Asian American community despite nearly 1,000 appearances by the band – in fact, nearly every major Asian American media source has supported our work (including Asian Week, Angry Asian Man, Disgrasian, 8Asians, the Asian Reporter, the Asian American Press, and more. In national surveys, the overwhelming majority of Asian Americans support our use of the name. This, of course, is a completely different set of circumstances than what Native Americans and THE REDSKINS have been facing.

“Redskin” has a long history of oppression, the football team treats the people as mascots. On the other hand, Asian-American activists have been using “SLANT” to present a bold portrayal of our culture for decades now. THE REDSKINS reinforce stereotypes of savage Native Americans. THE SLANTS breaks stereotypes about Asians Americans, especially in the entertainment industry. Unlike sports teams, artist have been the social conscious for humankind for ages – calling out inequities, celebrating beauty, and challenging our traditional notions on how we view life.

Will THE REDSKINS’ cancellation affect our case? I don’t believe so. Not only are the social circumstances substantially different, so is our legal argument. Watch and see, as our case will most likely be before the Federal District Court of Appeals for the next year.

Racism is a complex issue, and as such, there are no easy answers. Should the Trademark Office be focusing on their purpose (avoiding confusion in the marketplace and protecting intellectual properties), or should they be taking on the role of legislating speech as well? If they’re going to be doing so, they should at least be consistent. Yet, they’re all over the map: they approve “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” but deny “Clearly Queer,” they like “Do the Heritage Slant” but not “The Slants,” and “perma-chink” is OK but “chink proud” is not.

Some people who take issue with re-appropriated terms believe that racial slurs should not be used in any case whatsoever, but that’s now how language works. Just look at the term “queer,” which has definitely evolved with its use over time. Is it appropriate for some people to use but not others? Maybe – but that shouldn’t involve a government office.

Most people who advocate for better control don’t believe in the outright ban on all firearms, they just think criminals, the mentally ill, or minors shouldn’t have access to them. Maybe words are like that – they can be used to hurt or to protect, depending on whose hands they are in. Actually, I think it’s more like medicine. Many medicines are derived from poisons (like ergot or venoms) – what was once used to hurt is now used to heal. In the wrong hands, with the wrong intent, the poisons can cause damage. However, in the right hands, those same poisons can be repurpose/reappropriated to heal certain injuries. When it comes to marginalized populations, there’s no question that reclaiming poisonous words has created healing and reduced hate (psychological studies show that even the dominant group feels a loss in power)."



In this TEDx Talks, Simon Tam cited "the USPTO said their White attorneys understand racism because the USPTO has lots of Asians working there, as if racism can be understood via osmosis......", LOL

If look could kill

This Chinese woman stared at me from a distance walking toward me as if I killed her mother.  I was unlocking my bike after grocery shopping in Food Star on Columbia Pike.  She is most likely associated with Food Star or live nearby.  She didn't have any grocery in her hand or even a wallet.  I had never met her in my life.  She is about middle age.  Very typical of people from Asia behavior toward me since the 1990s, as soon as I arrived in the Silicon Valley; then NYC, the Patent and Trademark Office and now the DC metro.

"She is a whore"

heard from behind in the Pentagon City outside of USAA, a young American girl/woman voice.

I am surprise how hillbilly the DC metro is.  This is the US capital and the Capital of the world, where people from all over the world live, yet why are so many so redneck hillbilly, even in the Patent and Trademark Office. 

So, basically, anyone who assaulted me will be dealt with that can resulted in death, at least will be jailed.

Lately

I got this stolid look from under middle age White males as if I kill his pet hamster.  I had never met anyone of them in my life.  They usually avoided me, but not lately..   Hmmmm

I don't have time to play with you spoiled brats, and I don't do babysitting.  I have more important things to do like clear my name before I die, from a well-planned and well-organized smear campaign against me by people from Asia since the 1990s, as soon as I arrived in the Silicon Valley, and again in the Patent and Trademark Office/UPSTO, for being a Westernized/Americanized Asian woman (being educated, confident, etc is part of being Westernized), who I had never met in my life.
