It won't matter unless they're Asian (your logic). Neither will the defense's or plaintiff's arguments unless Asian
So are you going to address your words in this post by you: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/posts/5348036 "South Koreans murder at a massage spa..." Oh but now there's a Latino guy! And a couple of white people too! LOL. Shocking!
This is where one would say... Shut the fuck up. Now fuck off. Wasted minutes in talking to this asshole. wrbtrader
A trip to the spa that ended in death. These are some of the victims of the Atlanta-area shootings By Madeline Holcombe and Dakin Andone, CNN Updated 2:50 PM ET, Fri March 19, 2021 (CNN) Delaina Yaun and her husband had gone to Young's Asian Massage, a spa in Acworth, Georgia, on Tuesday, when a gunman entered and opened fire. "They just went to go have some time alone, husband and wife. Just time together," Dana Toole, Yaun's sister, told CNN. "Unfortunately, it went bad. It went bad real fast." Unsettling questions surround the motive behind three Atlanta-area spa shootings as Asians in the US face increased hate Yaun was killed, one of the nine victims in shootings at three different spas in the Atlanta-area -- one in Acworth and two in Atlanta. Of the eight people who lost their lives, six were Asian women. Four people were killed at the spa in Cherokee County, about 30 miles northwest of Atlanta. They were identified by authorities as 33-year-old Yaun, of Acworth; Paul Andre Michels, 54, of Atlanta; Xiaojie Tan, 49, of Kennesaw; and Daoyou Feng, 44. One man, Elcias Hernandez-Ortiz, survived. Four people were also killed at the spas in Atlanta. On Friday, the Fulton County Medical Examiner identified the victims as Soon C. Park, 74; Hyun J. Grant, 51; Suncha Kim, 69; and Yong A. Yue, 63. This is what we know about the victims so far. Delaina Yaun Yaun's sister described her as a family-oriented person. Recently married, she was the mother of two children, including an 8-month-old daughter. "Her family came first. Everything was her family," Toole said. "She had such a wonderful, happy, upbeat personality." "She was a good person," Toole said. "She didn't deserve that. Nobody deserved it." Yaun's husband made it out of the Acworthspa safely, according to a GoFundMe page that said her family was heartbroken and "there's nothing anyone could do to help with the pain." Delaina Ashley Yaun. In an interview with Mundo Hispanico, Yaun's husband, Mario Gonzalez, said he was in a different room at the time the shooting started Tuesday, about an hour into the massages. "They took the most valuable thing I have in my life," he said, adding, "He left me with only pain, the killer who killed my wife." Another GoFundMe page called Yaun a "beautiful Angel." "She has two beautiful babies she is leaving behind," it said. "We just don't know how to do any of this alone." Hyun Jung Grant Hyun Jung Grant was among those killed at Gold Massage Spa in Atlanta, her son, Randy Park, said on a GoFundMe page that has raised more than $1 million. Park described her as a "single mother who dedicated her whole life to providing for my brother and I." "She was one of my best friends and the strongest influence on who we are today," he said. "Losing her has put a new lens on my eyes on the amount of hate that exists in our world." Park said he and his brother are the only members of his family in the United States. The rest of their family is in South Korea. Elcias Hernandez-Ortiz Elcias Hernandez-Ortiz was shot at Young's Asian Massage in Acworth -- the sole survivor of Tuesday's shootings. Hernandez-Ortiz was shot in the forehead and the bullet traveled down into his lungs and into his stomach, his wife, Flora Gonzalez Gomez, said on GoFundMe. He is now in the intensive care unit in the hospital, she said. In an interview with CNN en Español on Thursday, Gonzalez Gomez said she received a call from her husband, a mechanic, moments after the shooting. "He called me and told me, 'I got shot, I got shot, please come,'" she said. "That was the only thing he told me. It was terrifying listening to that." Elcias Hernandez-Ortiz. His daughter, 9-year-old Yoseline Gonzalez, watched medics load him into an ambulance after the shooting. "I don't really know what to do. I try to calm myself down," Yoseline told CNN affiliate WGCL, wiping away her tears. According to Yoseline, doctors told his family he was very lucky to have survived. "He is a really good dad," she said. "I don't want him to go." Gonzalez Gomez called it a "miracle" that he is alive. "And for that I'm very thankful to God," she said, "because I know he'll move past this." Fear among Asian American community Four of the victims were of Korean ethnicity, South Korea's foreign ministry said Wednesday. "Our government is closely watching the situation, holding a deep interest in the safety of our compatriots overseas," South Korean Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong said at a news conference. "We express our deep condolences to the American citizens too." Why hate crime data can't capture the true scope of anti-Asian violence Activist groups, community members and officials said the attacks heightened existing fear among Asians in the US in the wake of increasing incidents of hate resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic. "It's difficult to ignore the fact that many of the victims were Asian, all of the victims in Atlanta were Asian, in fact, and that he targeted these Asian massage parlors," Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms told CNN on Wednesday. "Regardless of the motivation, given the concerns the community already has in light of all the attacks that we've seen -- particularly against Asian American women and the elderly -- I think this is a reminder that we need to do everything that we possibly can to protect the most vulnerable among us," Georgia state Rep. Sam Park told CNN. The organizations Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Atlanta, Asian American Advocacy Fund, 9to5 and Korean American Coalition Metro Atlanta said they are gathering resources and funds for those impacted and the families of the Asian victims.

Flowers lined all three Atlanta locations Wednesday as the victims were remembered. Jessica Lang took a moment to place her hand on the door of Youngs in Acworth after dropping off flowers with her daughter. Drawings and photographs of parents and children hinted at the grief the families as they mourn parents, siblings, spouses and children. There could have been more victims, Atlanta mayor says The first shooting happened shortly before 5 p.m. Tuesday at Young's Asian Massage and left four dead. Two of the victims were pronounced dead at the scene and two died at a hospital. Biden and Harris travel to Atlanta to meet with Asian American leaders in wake of mass shooting About an hour later and 30 miles away, Atlanta police responded to what was described as a robbery at the Gold Massage Spa on Piedmont Road in Atlanta. Police said they found three people dead. While there, police received another call of shots fired across the street at the Aroma Th erapy Spa, where they found one person dead, Bryant said. The authorities, seeking to contact next of kin, have not identified the other victims. Police have a suspect, 21-year-old Robert Long, in custody on charges in relation to the three attacks. Long was arrested 150 miles south of the city, and Bottoms said he was headed to Florida "perhaps to carry out additional shootings." "It's very likely there would have been more victims," Bottoms said in a news conference at Atlanta police headquarters.

IF Hillary was President during all of this 80 million would have Covid and over 2 million would of died so far. Look it up.
Very true. Take a look at the picture of the Hispanic guy that I posted. In a shooting situation, chaotic, adrenaline is going crazy... That Hispanic guy may look Asian to the shooter especially if the shooter only got a glimpse of the guy prior to shooting in the direction of the guy. Regardless, had there been one White owned massage spa or mostly white people shot at one of the massage spa's... It would still be a hate crime if he targeted only women due to the definition of Hate Crime by law in the state of Georgia that was passed last year. wrbtrader
I only surmised he targeted the spas because of race in my posts. I stated it was a hate crime because Georgia had passed recent laws also making women a protected class. Having said that, I'm not sure I'm ready to buy the incel's story of race not playing a part (we'll see what the feds dig up). Is "I have yellow fever and you devils are tempting me so I gotta end you" not racial?
In today's environment, people that do Hate Crimes are aware of the laws in their state about such. Thus, they know there's more penalties and stronger consequences. In some states...guarantee to the death penalty when a Hate Crime is identified as the reason for killing individuals. Thus, its possible the shooter is aware of the laws against Hate Crimes and when questioned about such... Time to cover his ass and create a new story...sex addiction. Who knows, after the investigation concludes...it could be both...sex deviation and hate crime. Yet as I stated before, what was occurring at those massage spas for the shooter to take his anger out on them via sex deviation ??? I think I had stated before they may have cut him off after some sexual advances or that he has a problem with women. wrbtrader
"Remove him from the flock", eh. I have a few good suggestions on how to "remove him from the flock".... all aligned with Christian historical tradition. How about nailing him to a cross.
