With That Name, They'd Better Have GREAT Kung Pao

Remember that anti-Asian YouTube rant by a UCLA student who imitated them saying "ching chong ling long"? Some of her classmates and a local Chinese restaurant have drawn the wrath of a politician by starting a "Ching Chong Ling Long" Chinese takeout business. The Assemblyman says it's racist and "jingoistic." The school says you can't run a business from your dorm room (so Mark Zuckerberg wouldn't have been allowed to start Facebook if he'd gone there). The students say they're combatting racism through humor. But politicians don't ever consider anything funny, whether it is or not.
