Aside from anything racist, I get tired of I can't be blamed whether a murder of a child, white or black or any, an adult or anyone because I have a sex addiction, because i was abused as a child, because I have a learning disability or I have an addiction... But yes, I see no reason to dismiss anything racial at this point...

These perps have a mantra every time. The domestic case excuses are usually "she ran off with some stranger", "she was drinking and disappeared", and/or "she had been suicidal".

Yes, those tick me off too. So common those excuses and dissing the one missing...

It's always the fault of the victim, which they seem to truly believe. I think that's one of the components in why they think it's okay to take a life.

Sadly I think you're right. It shows as part of an overall personality type or at least it can.

So he was "heading to Florida" to continue? Sounds like he was fleeing but Florida was lucky. Only 21 years old and already killed 8 people. Has there been a younger mass killer than that? I am thinking of Jeremy Bamber in the UK who killed all his family (5) and tried to blame it on his sister as murder/suicide. He was 23 at the time, I believe.

I'll look it up.

Yes. Sick of excuses. No matter what they are. YOU did it. Plain and simple. OWN IT! He was raised in the church. He knew right from wrong.

In the U.S. it looks like it would be these senseless school shootings by fellow students.

"Butch DeFeo" was 23 when he killed his entire family of 6 on Nov 13th, 1974. Better known as "The Amityville Murders" in Amityville, NY. He just died yesterday at age 69 while still incarcerated.

The school of thinking of "It's not my fault".

 

[Mel70]

Not saying they all are but you might be surprised in some cases... The thought crosses my mind on occasion in some nail salons which we have a ton of... Don't shoot me but it does cross my mind...

Well nail salons I don't think of that.

A trip to the spa that ended in death. These are some of the victims of the Atlanta-area shootings | CNN

Delaina Yaun and her husband were at Youngs Asian Massage, a spa in Acworth, Georgia, last Tuesday, when a gunman entered and opened fire.

I want to know more about the victims who lost their lives. This MSM article indicates that authorities are still working on notifying next of kin for the victims who were killed in the Atlanta area spas.

Victims identified at the other spa are: Delaina Ashley Yaun, age 33. Article says that she and her husband went for a massage after work, and that Delaina was shot and killed, but her husband managed to escape. Dao-You Feng, 44, was also shot and killed. And Paul Andre Michaels, 54, was also killed. Elcias Hernandez-Ortiz was shot and is in intensive care at the hospital.

No details yet of their lives and their families and loved ones who survive them.

A 9 yr old trying to process that. They shouldn't have to.

Another child growing up without their momma.

All these Asian attacks. It is supposed to be because of COVID. But more often than not they are not of Chinese descent. Just attack them because they look like they might be. Either way it needs to STOP! SO IGNORANT!!!

Includes all federal buildings in the U.S. and at embassies and consular offices abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.

Cancel culture at its finest, and the knee-jerk reaction to label this "white supremacy."

Captain Baker didn't kill the Asian women, Robert Aaron Long did. I agree that the Captain's repeating the shooters' words were in poor taste and that inevitably they would be hurtful, but I don't think his intentions were to minimize the seriousness of the situation. Perhaps we will hear from him about this, or from his lawyer or union rep, but probably not, as he probably has to stay silent now due to internal investigations. I feel for him, he is up against the mob now.

I don't feel for him, this is tasteless, unprofessional and absolutely stupid behaviour. JMO
