Ling Ling

When a video about an Asian girl, "Ling Ling", talking back to two black kids, went viral. I was upset to hear what they were saying. I tried to view comments about it, yet I noticed that no one actually said anything about it being discrimated to Asians.

The term "Ling Ling" refers to a whole group of Asians, and based upon the video. The slang refers only to Chinese people. I'm curious on what you guys may think of this. 

Honestly if a black person was called something that like "Ling Ling", most people would be saying something against that. But this goes differently for Asians.
