Sex crimes against Asian women in the United States

This article is unencyclopedic and bordered on contentious. It has an incrediably small focus and I feel it is unnecessary to have an article on this topic. Are sexual assaults against Asian women, awful as they may be, worthy of their own article? No, we're not an indiscriminate collection of information. Are the motivations (primarily racist as this article seems to imply) that different from sexual assaults against white women, black women, Hispanic women, etc? Are Asian women not sexually assaulted anywhere else in the world?

The article appears to be a mixture of psychology - which could be merged with rape or racism- and a list of specific assaults. For a start, I doubt any of these women want the incident catalogged in an encyclopedia! Merge the relevent content with rape and rascism and delete the list.

)Shame on you! So racist violence towards women is not important enough???173.54.13.112 (talk) 16:30, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong delete per WP:COATRACK. A 2.5 year old article that is full of arbitrary POV. Who defines what is an Asian lady? By the way, sex crimes against all women in the US might be much more notable than those against just African American, Hispanic or, in this case, Asian women. Why the ethnic breakdown here?

 * Delete Horrible piece of coatracking that is unencyclopedic on so many levels it's untrue. Nothing to merge, delete it. FatherJack92 (talk) 13:30, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
