I think they are mostly Asian. I've seen police reports in Fairfax, and it seems to me that is the case. Remember when the owner of the Patriots was arrested in Florida? That was an Asian massage parlor. There was also talk of trafficking at that time.

With the amount of time to release names, I wonder what the status was with the one in Atlanta.

No excuse for the horrific murder. But, don't paint it as an anti-Asian thing when there were lots of other Asians that he could have gone after--restauraants, nail salons, dry cleaners....

Yet he reduced the entirety of the Asian culture to sex objects, he blamed them for his sex addiction. And he murdered them for that reason. I honestly can’t see how you refuse to see this.

These are the same revisionist historians who see Hitler as a deranged person in need of help, not a racist. After all, Hitler kept a longtime Jewish mistress and kept going back for his sexual needs.

The post deletion on this thread is shameful.

When I report posts, I do so for cause. And a lot of you have really racist beliefs you haven’t sat down with. At all. I don’t know which posts got disappeared, but there are actually reasons we report them.

Eight lives snuffed out because Republicans have a gun fetish, hate women, haven’t addressed their sexuality and refuse to address mental health issues.

Why is it so hard for you to accept that it is racism.

This.

Remember last year or so when several massage parlors in Rockville were shut down because they were human trafficking Asian women? I hope authorities and the media research all facets of this case. Who exactly were the women that serviced the shooter? Were they being held against their will? Why is there such a demand from white men seeking these kind of illegal services? Our country has a long history of white men using violence to eradicate things they have determined to be wrong. So far, it appears to me that this guy thought sex and porn were wrong, not all Asian women.

Anonymous wrote:The guy was clearly crazy and paranoid about massage (sex) shops. The world has been in lock down for a year. People with serious mental health issues have not been able to get services and have been festering. Why must everything be about racism. We should be talking about what to do with seriously mentally ill people who refuse to get help or take medications.

Are you a psychiatrist? What is your credential for the medical diagnosis?

Is your knowledge of massage shops as sex shops from your personal experience? I mean, is this your speculation - or is it from your personal experience of having paid and received?

This sort of reminds me of the IT nut job incel who after a lifetime of being rejected by women, of which he details in his manifesto, and then goes into a gym loaded down with ammo and guns and slaughters a bunch of people in the name of making things even.

I think what is getting lost in all of this, is that this massage parlor was more likely than not a human trafficking front. These women didn't deserve to die, they shouldn't have been there in the first place, but for the owners were taking advantage of their desperate circumstances, these women are living in what amounts to modern day sexual servitude.

Nothing wrong with getting your kicks, but honestly what kind of man with any sense of right/wrong frequents a place like that knowing you are supporting sex trafficking of women who have no other choice.

So of course it is going to attract those who have very warped, twisted and sadistic views of women and since there is very little chance the "Johns' will be arrested for solicitation, there is very little downside to pursing their predilection, a twisted person can go very far down the rabbit hole, which is what probably happened to this guy.

The owner who was killed was more than likely a human trafficker. Did they deserve to die? No they deserved to go to jail.

The man who committed this heinous crime was a client, he had a connection to this place, he went over the bend. He needs to be locked away for life. He committed a heinous crime against humanity.

Was it racially motivated, probably not. The owners of these places aren't screening their customers for the potential of the "Johns" to later become violent homicidal maniacs.

Was it motivated by a strong hatred towards women, yes more than likely. Why else would someone be a regular at several of these types of places. This isn't someone who has a normal relationship with sex and women.

I am surprised there haven't been more instances like this those places are a ticking time bomb. These massage places operate all over the place in the DMV and I've yet to see anyone going in the front door. I assume they use the service entrances located in the backs of the strip mall stores.

Maybe this incident will encourage the DOJ to step up their enforcement efforts to do away with these places. Especially when they are nothing more than conduits for those trafficking in and exploiting vulnerable women.

I'm not sure what you referring to here. No mass murderer "gets a pass" because of mental illness. They all face at least a lifetime in prison.

Black people get killed even for the suspicion of a crime. White mass murderers get fast food on the way to jail. Black people suffer character assassination. White mass murderers get their faith, their family, their wonderful high school yearbook picture featured. Black people, even when innocent, get far harsher penalties. Indeed most of these White mass murderers get fairly gentle punishments.

I don’t know why we have to keep gentling people like you along. If you can’t see the disparities at this point, it’s because you’re actively looking away.

Oh please. Emanuel Samson was taken into custody alive. Most mass shooters kills themselves. Stop cherry picking only what you want to hear.

Did you miss the video of the white OK teen who was shot multiple times by multiple cops after he put down his gun and stood still with his hands up?

We can cherry pick incidents to support any side.

I’d rather make the bold statement that everyone needs to do better, and the first step is admitting that mental health plays a role in these senseless crimes.

“Cherry picking.”

Go look at the statistics. Again, if you can’t see it, you’re looking the other way as hard as you can.

Why is it so hard for you to accept that it is racism.

Anonymous wrote:If it was mental illness, then why don't we have similar mass shootings with mentally ill black/hispanic/asian gunmen killing large groups of white people?

Instead, it's a white guy aiming at a group of:
-Black parishoners at their Bible study (Dylan Roof)
-Hispanic/Latino families shopping at Wal-Mart (Patrick Crusis)
-Asian massage parlor workers (Robert Long)

Most mass shooters aim indiscriminately - Las Vegas shooting, Columbine, etc.

But in cases where all the victims are of predominantly one ethnic group and the shooter is of a different ethnicity, you need to first look at ethnic/racial hatred. There's not much of another explanation.

Further, if it was due to mental illness, we should see mass shooters of other races/ethnicities. We know mental illness is prevalent in those populations too. But we don't!

Absolutely 100000000000% false. Belt way snipers were minorities. DC naval yard shooter was a minority. VA beach shooter was a minority. VA tech shooter s minority. For god's sake man, Emanuel Samson, a minority, shot up a church in TN specifically with the goal of shooting white people. In all of those cases the victims were predominantly white. Yet where's your discussion of race wrt those shootings?

Personally, do I think racism was involved in those shootings? Mostly no. Crazy gunmen are gonna kill who they come across first.

Get your head out of the sand. There are plenty of examples of minority shooters who've killed mostly white people, yet you choose to ignore for some reason.
