I think it’s easy to link the 6 Asian-American women together. Whether it was motivated by race or sex or something else, I’ll let other people debate, but he clearly targeted a specific group. I haven’t followed this much the last two days but last I heard there was a white couple there, I assume to get a massage, which is why I said “wrong place at the wrong time.”BurtReynolds wrote:What exactly do you think happened?Rob wrote:I mean, does Andrew Sullivan really believe those two white people were part of his plan?

Re: America..why won't you just ban the fucking gun?
But here’s another perspective. Some want to say the left goes too far, but here we have a situation where Asian Americans have started going on tv to call attention to the rise in aggressive, sometimes violent behavior. And while that’s happening, conservative media is going out of its way to decouple race from this mass shooting. They are really giving it their best shot.
I realize things are complicated and you don’t want to gloss over the facts in this case to support a larger cause, but I’m not sure this approach gets you any support that wasn’t already there.

I guess you prove your moderate bonafides by reverting to Bush senior/ Clinton era federal law enforcement fuckups. Just handing over guns to the cartels ala Obama might be too extreme.

In Verb's defense there's never been a mass shooting at a dick sucking factory so he's probably facing a much lower risk than a teacher.Orpheus wrote:But the debt!

It certainly wasn't a typical school shooting where the objective is the highest possible body count.Bi_3 wrote: Double plus good newspeak
