    It's pretty despicable that they're saying he "had a bad day" instead of admonishing him for a terror attack that has tragically impacted the eight victim's families and has shook the Asian-American, and by large the Asian community to it's core.

    But what do you expect from an officer that is fueling the fire of hate even further under the pretense of making a joke with those tasteless shirts?

    f--- him and f--- that terrorist.

    8 women died... more than 8 people were shot... this effected so many people that majority of white people in Georgia couldn't give a f--- less about.

    The killer walked into a store and bought that gun that day. His excuse is he thought his weakness and sex addiction was more important than people's lives.

    America is a brutal place. The south is a shithole.

    The way this story is being covered is so awkward. The media cant figure out which narrative to push. Racism, gun violence, sexism wtf. Everything but mental illness.

    But dude should be hung or stoned. Start making examples out of people again. As long as there isnt reasonable doubt then why not?

    Social conditioning needs to be addressed. This includes sexism, racism & mental illness caused by our extremely unhealthy environments that are currently regressing further & further hence why these occurrences are becoming more frequent in America in particular. Until the causality is addressed, nothing will change. Capital punishment is irrelevant, it’s a completely different topic & doesn’t solve the issue at hand, clearly capital punishment & incarceration do not solve these problems as we’ve seen. Rehabilitation using techniques developed through scientific & psychological studies would surely have more of a positive impact, but it seems like the US government isn’t bothered by this as it furthers their agendas, sadly. (Incarceration for business benefits) (Sinophobia for increasing war tensions on China)

    The media is merely fanning the flame with these events like they always do, which leads to 2 reactionary affairs, counter-attacks (usually targeting blameless persons) and/or copycats. They’re middle-men instigators.

    Cuz it has to do with all of those things...and they are talking about mental illness in tons of major publications lol, both with regard to the shooter and in terms of next steps communities can take to help combat mental illness.

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...tings-what-we-know-suspect-motive/4728084001/
    Authorities note in the 2019 report his parents said Long was "not suicidal, did not take any medication, and had no mental illnesses."

    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...nt-shooting-suspect-s-religion-shame-n1261399
    "I know he’s gone through a mental health evaluation here at the jail, that’s just standard protocol, but anything prior to that is still part of the investigation and, quite frankly, I don’t know," he said."

    https://www.tampabay.com/news/natio...-to-florida-next-police-say/?outputType=audit
    The American Psychiatric Association does not recognize sex addiction in its main reference guide for mental disorders. While some people struggle to control their sexual behaviors, it’s often linked to other recognized disorders or moral views about sexuality, said David Ley, clinical psychologist and author of “The Myth of Sex Addiction.”

    “These sexual behaviors getting this label are a symptom, not a cause,” Ley said.

    https://www.npr.org/2021/03/17/9782...s-reason-but-most-victims-were-of-asian-desce
    So local Asian American groups are holding community calls today. They're working on trying to funnel resources for mental health counseling.

    Cuz we're not cavemen and I don't think we/the government should ever get to decide who "deserves" to die. There's also many examples of people being convicted "beyond reasonable doubt" and then DNA evidence exonerating them years or decades later. It's gross and authoritarian and doesn't solve anything—it just would put these mass shooters' names in the news more and we already have a huge issue with making them famous.

    As I said a few posts up, media glorification leads to reactionary events like copycats. Scary stuff, but I can’t see this improving any time soon.

    It’s not obvious to everyone as much as it should be.
