To Whom it May Concern: <br /> James Mai is on the Child Care Committee for the <br /> City of Irvine. This is problematic because social <br /> media posts by Mai himself reveal that he committed <br /> a Hate Crime. <br /> Mai has never disputed that he made the posts, and <br /> even admitted to Irvine Police that screenshots showing <br /> him bragging in detail of how he committed the Hate <br /> Crime were real. <br /> In the Instagram posts, Mai gives a motive: He claims <br /> the owner refused to refund his credit card after being <br /> overcharged. The atrocious story ends with Mai gloating <br /> that he had received a full refund after committing the <br /> Hate Crime. The terroristic act got him his desired result. <br /> Mai makes no secret of how he achieved procuring the <br /> refund and has never shown remorse. <br /> The Hate Crime falls under the classification of <br /> "Hinduphobia" as it was committed (according to Mai <br /> himself) against an Indian restaurant and the owner was <br /> Hindu. The cow is sacred in the Hindu belief system, so <br /> such an act as committed by Mai is an attack on Hindus. <br /> That places it in the category of "Hate Crime" <br />
