8 killed in shootings, the majority of them Asian women, at 3 Atlanta-area spas (UP: Suspect caught)

The fact that this is not the only story on CNN right now shows how desensitized we have become to gun violence.
Seems like a gun related hate crime. Should be the top story which it would be if the attacker wasn't white.
Yep. I turned it on to hear updates on the shooting and they cut over to Chris Cuomo who started talking about fucking McConnell. Are you serious? Who cares about McConnell ever, let alone when there is real news happening? I turned that shit off quick.

this made me do a double take on the name, "Young's Asian Massage"
Yeah, looking at the guy, it could be either anti-Asian violence or a neckbeard targeting women in a job I'm sure incels have opinions about

If it's both, expect the media to lean harder into the latter in order to paint it as a personal, rather than systemic root cause.
Well, except the ones that are: Proud Boys, 3%ers, Patriot Prayer, etc.
I mean, the facts as of now are at the least suggesting a bias crime targeting either women or Asians as a class.

Is it confirmed yet if this suspect was the one who hit all three spas?
He's not wrong. Evidence we have so far suggests a bias, but I think it's always smart to wait for some real confirmation on events like this.

what?
it was either directed at Asians or Women, how is that not a bias?
Yeah, enough evidence shows that it was a targeted attack. Unless it was 3 random people that attacked the exact same type of businesses around the same time.
RIP the victims of a system dragging their feet to do anything about it.
Also this will test the places that like to call events like this the "result of a lone wolf attack"

Horrible, they are saying that all the victims were asian, and that at least one of the locations, the suspect left others alive (did not shoot them). According to the police they shared the suspect entering his car and he appeared he white. I wonder what ethnicity the survivors are.
That would be my thought -- hatred of Asians + hatred of women + a steady diet of right wing media creates assholes just like this.
User Banned (2 Weeks): Inappropriate Speculation and Racial Stereotyping in a Sensitive Thread
I'm very morbidly curious if any of these shooting victims will also turn out to be sex trafficking victims
The idea of massage parlors being a hub of Asians isn't a foreign one. And if you're a racist asshat who's looking to target Asian individuals, it's a quick soft target.
If it was gang related, I don't think they'd target multiple locations. And not all of these types of businesses are run by that kind of organized crime, either.
If you mean by the government, there's no such thing as a domestic terrorist organization under US law. The whole process of designating something a terrorist organization only applies to primarily foreign organizations; hence why those designations are made by the State Department.
I'm eager to see if he's allowed to post bail and get out like fucking Rittenhouse.
What in the absolute fuck. RIP to the victims.
Depressing af thought but yep. Dreading the day we get back to 100% normalcy and we get news of the first school shooting, etc.

Hopefully they'll find MAGA ties with this guy, because Asians are getting radicalized by the alt-right. The recent attacks have all been blamed on other minorities and I see plenty of Asians hate on Biden and democrats because they let black people rampage during the protests. Having Trump ties will hopefully wake up some Asians that these people aren't your friends.
We all know that a brown or black man targeting white women would not be taken alive. The double standard for white murderers, rapists, and terrorists getting kids' gloves while everyone else is demeaned, abused, or killed needs to fucking stop. With all the endless harm BIPOC people have endured in this shithole, we'd be more than justified to stop fighting for equality and start fighting out of vengeance. The racist fuckwits who run this clownshow haven't payed for their crimes ever let alone the atrocities happening now and that will happen in the future. I'm not saying we should have a reverse race war, but degenerates like this neckbeard twit should FEAR what might happen when they act on their intentions. Shite people like this know that afterward they'll gently be taken in by sympathetic cops. We are well beyond enough at this point.
