Chip Roy pivots to whataboutism against Chinese government during hearing on anti-Asian violence and racism

Hes a lad isnt he ? Who elects these loons ? Marje and Lauren will have to up their crazy after this.
There's nothing loony about this:
Mr Roy opened his remarks saying that “victims of race-based violence and their families deserve justice” but then added that his “concern about this hearing is that it seems to want to venture into the policing of rhetoric in a free society, free speech, and away from the rule of law and taking out bad guys.”
"When we start policing free speech we’re doing the very thing that we’re condemning when we condemn what the Chinese Community Party does to their country," he said. "Who decides what is hate? Who decides what is the kind of speech that deserves policing?”
He raises some good questions.
He really doesnt. The issue is the demonisation of Asian Americans by blaming the Chinese people for the covid outbreak. Nobody is being attacked or saying the Chinese govt is cruel and repressive.
Trump never distinguished between the Chinese people and their government. His followers are far too stupid to cope with that.
