It seems as if a lot of the White supremacist males have a really kinky thing about non-White females of any group. But then they have some pretty kinky ideas about all women, come to think of it.
Just read about an elderly Asian-descent woman in San Francisco who was sucker-punched by a young man, and she grabbed a stick and beat the ever-lovin’ hell out of him, sending him to the hospital on a stretcher! Like Covid, this behavior will not go away for a long time. Trump made it fashionable to express one’s hatred, so much so that it is a badge of honor among the republican right-wing zealots! The damage that these republican senators & reps are still causing is truly ripping away whatever respect other countries may have had for us, after G.W.Bush/Dick Cheney, and Reagan.
Georgia police officer Jay Baker needs to be fired immediately. He said that the murderer “had a bad day” so the police department decided to look into his social media. They found several anti-Asian posts including repeating some of the Trump garbage about Covid.
Fury as Republican appears to glorify lynching in hearing on violence against Asian Americans
Chip Roy pivots to whataboutism against Chinese government during hearing on anti-Asian violence and racism
Republican US representative Chip Roy raged at members of Congress for “policing rhetoric” during a hearing on Asian American violence and discrimination, held just days after several Asian American women were killed in a shooting rampage in Atlanta.
He referred to “Chi Coms” and his opposition to the “patently evil” Chinese Communist Party for the country’s response to the Covid-19 crisis, adding that he "shouldn’t be worried about having a committee of members of Congress policing our rhetoric” as a House Judiciary subcommittee held a hearing to discuss the rise in abuse and hate speech and attacks directed towards Asian Americans.
Mr Roy opened his remarks saying that “victims of race-based violence and their families deserve justice” but then added that his “concern about this hearing is that it seems to want to venture into the policing of rhetoric in a free society, free speech, and away from the rule of law and taking out bad guys.”
“When we start policing free speech we’re doing the very thing that we’re condemning when we condemn what the Chinese Community Party does to their country,” he said. "Who decides what is hate? Who decides what is the kind of speech that deserves policing?”
He also invoked a reference to lynching: “There’s an old saying in Texas about find all the rope in Texas and get a tall oak tree. You know, we take justice very seriously, and we ought to do that. Round up the bad guys.”
Committee chair US Rep Steve Cohen responded, saying that “being spat at, slapped in the face, lit on fire, slashed with a box cutter, and shoved violently to the ground … that’s not speech.”
There is no doubt that there is a lot of racism and misogyny around, but in this particular case in Atlanta, it seems that the forces involved were religion, resulting mental health problems, and (of course the usual) easy access to firearms. Certainly no less tragic, but apparently not part of a (real, to be sure) pattern of anti-Asian racism. FWIW. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/18/us/robert-aaron-long-atlanta-spa-shooting.html
1) He’s reported to have refused psychiatric help, insisting that “God” would cure him. But when his “God” failed to do so, he didn’t attack “God” for the failure; he attacked the individuals which “God” allowed to exist as “temptations”.
2) He chose to “solve” his problem by “eliminating” the objects of his addiction. If the eight killings turned out to be not enough to “cure” him, did he intend to kill every woman on the planet?
Such “thought” processes are extremely scary, and I doubt that he’s the only human being who “thinks” that way.

A couple of thoughts relating to the killer:
1) He’s reported to have refused psychiatric help, insisting that “God” would cure him. But when his “God” failed to do so, he didn’t attack “God” for the failure; he attacked the individuals which “God” allowed to exist as “temptations”.
2) He chose to “solve” his problem by “eliminating” the objects of his addiction. If the eight killings turned out to be not enough to “cure” him, did he intend to kill every woman on the planet?
