Shootings in Atlanta

Maybe it has nothing to do with a larger societal problem and that this was just one screwed up dude?

These screwed up dudes are a huge part of the societal problem.

apparently it's not a hate crime and the shooter was just "having a bad day"

Apparently he hated them so much, that he was a frequent customer to their services.

If anything, the biggest problem that can be discussed is whether someone like that should be able to get a gun so easily

Someone like what? A Christian?

or, all of the deranged murderers in gun-free Chicago, or...

This stuff is endless. EVERYBODY get your own sh!t together. Guns aren't the problem, or bombs, or knives, etc... it's looney nutjobs that can't control themselves. I get mad, you get mad, everybody gets mad. It's a CHOICE to hurt other people.

This happened recently too. It was his CHOICE to do this...

I kind of agree...it's rather reckless (and baseless) of the media to instantly ascribe this to coronavirus-fueled racial hatred against Asians. Maybe it turns out that way, but at the moment (so far as I know) there's nothing to suggest that.

Yes, other than the fact that the shooter obviously targeted asian women, there's NOTHING to suggest that this was racially motivated. JFC.

Asian men or Asian restaurant workers weren't targeted because?

Maybe the dude got burned? Maybe he was a frequent visitor and the workers grew to not like something about him?

Your response is typical of over-reaction based on nothing common response from you and many 'liberals'. You don't know anything about this situation, as either do I or the vast majority of readers here.

Again, he was so racist that he frequented these places for their service. You're a loon.

Ignore the race-baiting troll you're responding to. I'm not sure what's with the desire by some to politicize these sad deaths.

Hey dumba$$, you don't know why he did it, and either do I.

It is YOU that is leveling racism charges. It is YOU that is being overreactionary, as you always are. We don't know why he did it... but immediately throwing the race card in everything is almost as coward as he is.

Perhaps they kicked him out for some reason, and he snapped. If so, it destroys your all too common race card. YOU don't know, and I don't either. But, what I do know is, folks like you that immediately play the race card, are often found to be full of sh!t. And we ALL know that you're full of sh!t.

This is a classic mental health issue. This guy felt tempted to get rub and tugs. He lashed out at what he felt was the temptation. In his tangled mind, literal removal of them would solve his temptation problem.

Yes, calling a mass murderer of asian women a "racist" is a TERRIBLE OVERREACTION that is almost as bad as the killing spree itself. You are pathetic.

.... Yes, by Asian women. What's with this weird aversion to calling this POS a racist?

"It's a mental health issue, not racism." What in the world would make you think it can't be both?

Are we just pretending this guy isn't an obvious incel? Incel terrorism isn't exactly a new phenomenon.

Out of curiosity, why aren't Islamic terrorists regarded as incel terrorists?

You see an ugly white person arrested for a mass shooting, and immediately chuckle and scream death to incels. Yet when an ugly brown male screams Aluh akhbar while splattering civilians, motivated by the neolithic fantasy of 72 teenage Virginia as his reward in heaven, then those civilians were 'killed by a car', and if a y blame is given to the man, it's that he must be mentally ill. Perhaps driven insane by the treatment of Palestinians by evil Zionists, or Orange Man's racism towards Arabs etc.

Calling a POS a POS, is fine.

Calling somebody something they're not, having a media run with it, and have society ingest the propaganda, is dangerous BS.

But, you're too stupid to understand that. A POS is a POS. But, the the term 'racist', is overreactionary. It's an extremely dangerous term, especially in our current world.

Again, perhaps he was kicked out for an unknown reason... and if so, is he a 'racist'? Perhaps not. But you keep leveling that charge, and I see politicians, media, USATF, and others running with the same charge.

What he is, until we know it was race related, is a POS murderer. That's what he is until we know more.

It is YOU, and many others, that keep throwing racism into it... and that might not be the case.

I bet you've never said a word about the massive amount of race-related black on asian crime that happens all the time though.

Keep racism out of it until it's proven.

Lol. "Politicize." Do you have any Asian women in your family who are freaked the f*ck out today? I'm gonna bet not! Maybe you'd be willing to lecture my family members about how they are "playing the race card" and should wait until they hear the murder's side of the story before jumping to unfair conclusions.

Because words have meaning? A 21YO neckbeard that frequents rub & tugs, has a "sex addiction", and hates women enough to murder 8 of them. I'm comfortable classifying him as an incel.

The rest of your post seems to be a conversation you are having with an imaginary "blue-piller". The men's lib movement has a violence problem, not too different from radical Islam.

Well only Asian women offer these AFAIK, so you don't have a choice of ethnicity if you're into that.
