[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The killer,  a white man, equated Asian women as sexual temptresses. [b]He also planned to go to FL to shoot up Asian women there.[/b] Did he frequent those places.
The sexual objectification and fetishization of Asian women IS racist. Why (white) people refuse to see that tells me that they are able to experience their lives as the default race - they don’t have to think about race constantly so why shouldn’t non-white people, too? I am constantly reminded of my race and of my sexuality as an Asian woman. Even if YOU don’t have to think about it, it doesn’t mean that I do not.[/quote]

Need a citation for this claim.  I have heard he was heading to FL to possibly commit more shootings, but nothing I have read has said anything about Asians being the target.  [/quote]
He said he was going to shoot up porn places. Miami Herald. 
What is your point? Like, Aha! He shot up three Asian massage parlors, murdered six Asian women,  but but but he’s not racist bc the fourth place he was going to shoot up wasn’t a massage parlor! Please. The dude conflated Asian women with sexual temptation. Why are people so invested in excusing this white man’s sexualized racism?[/quote]
