When will we ever stop minimizing the hateful, violent acts of white men? While we're at it, let's not take the shooter's word for whether or not it was racist. And let's definitely not let this lowlife garbage human blame the victims for his actions by claiming bullshit sexual addiction and implying they were providing sexual services and that somehow explains his vicious crimes.

Dh and I were in bed this morning with the news on. I was on my iPad, half listening but heard "he was taken into custody without incident." I said "white, huh?" and dh said "yep."

What a shocker. "A Georgia man who professed a passion for guns and God was in custody on Tuesday night after a string of shootings that police said appeared to target Asian women at massage parlors and left eight people dead. Robert Aaron Long, 21, of Woodstock, Georgia, was caught on video at the crime scenes and later nabbed on a highway two hours south of Atlanta following a police chase, authorities said. Police stressed that it was too early to announce a motive—but at least four of those killed were of Korean descent, and the horrific attacks come amid a wave of targeted violence against the Asian-American community. A trickle of details about the suspect, who went by his middle name, offered few clues. “Pizza, guns, drums, music, family, and God. This pretty much sums up my life. It’s a pretty good life,” read the tagline on an Instagram account that appeared to belong to Long." www.thedailybeast.com/seven-killed-in-shootings-at-atlanta-spas?ref=homeBut the GOP will have white ladies crapping their pants over the dangers of BLM "thugs". PS - He was APPREHENDED ALIVE. Sounds about white.

My partner texted me this story last night. I said I bet he was white...sure enough. When will white America wake up and realize that it's white people we need to fear.

Hate crimes PLUS a messed up mind that was trying to "erase temptation" (i.e., sexual temptation) from the world. He went to a terrible church that teaches terrible things like this that his pastor said last year: "An Aaron Long is mentioned in the minutes of a 2018 meeting at the Crabapple church, described as a member of the church's student ministry team, according to Storyful. The same name is mentioned in a comment added to a post about a church trip to Costa Rica. According to Storyful, Long attended a September 2020 sermon in which pastor Jerry Dockery spoke about gender roles. Dockery claimed "radical feminism has engulfed our culture like a tsunami" and that "we're propagating what Satan wants to accomplish." Sermons on the church's YouTube page were made private early on Wednesday, as was the church's website and social media accounts." www.newsweek.com/who-robert-aaron-long-atlanta-shootings-suspect-1576712Thanks again, bullshit preaching!

He has certainly made the biting list! And just for fun, I'm going to add his entire fucking church.

Wash, Rinse, Repeat.

You know when I have a bad day, I generally indulge in some retail therapy. Maybe do some yoga or watch a chick flick.
Misogynistic racism is what we're looking at here. Also, why do all these crazy white men look the same?

I’ve had many really bad days. I’ve yet to murder anyone.
And I’m completely creeped out by the beard! This is why I immediately shudder when I see the “what do you think about facial hair on men?” threads. I know there are many styles of facial hair, but this is what always comes to mind! Ew. (My apologies to men with great trimmed beards.)

That's probably because you don't go to the kind of churches that are constantly preaching about the EVULS in the WURLD!!! AMEN!? AMEN!!! They are assaulted with this garbage from childhood and see Satan around every corner. They are taught their normal bodies desires are "sin". They are NOT TAUGHT about consent. Just to bury their sexual desires until they find a nice virgin to marry. They are assaulted online w/free and often perverted-porn. They go to "incel" groups online where they are stoked with ideas that they DESERVE sex and women are there for their pleasure. You don't act like they do? Because you haven't been steeped in their putrid sad little world. Thank Good.

JFC, it doesn't look like his killing spree did the trick and improved his day. FFS, you know who is having a really bad day? The family and friends of his victims.

Waiting for the victim blaming by the right to begin in 3....2....1.... It already has. The "sexual addiction" excuse is exactly that. Of course. It was THEIR fault that he had “ungodly” urges (even though there’s no indication that the victims were doing anything beyond massage—NOT that it would matter). It’s why we prosecute prostitutes way more than we prosecute the johns. it’s why we condemn pornography and not the men who watch it. It’s why we blame rape victims for what they wear, or walking alone, or getting drunk or even not watching their drinks.... I’m so tired of the power that men hold over women.

Pizza, guns, drums, music, family, and God.
Hmm, which of these words does not belong?
I'm having a really craptastic week. Never would it occur to me to kill people because of it. What an entitled monster.

Who radicalized him.
Where were his parents.
How is his broken community responsible for him.
Do white people have a cultural issue.
Why don’t white people value human life.
I will just wait over here for the questions to be asked. Meanwhile I will get cute photos of him, I will hear him called a kid, I will hear how really I am responsible as a coastal elite for creating him, or how immigration policies are to blame.
