I know out of 8 people shot, 6 were Asian women. The shooting took place inside an Asian business. I think that it is awful that asian hate crimes are happening so often.

It's really sad that all of this is happening and there are so many excuses covering it all up.

I know that 8 people were shot and 4 people were dead at a massage parlor in Atlanta. All 4 people were asian and this caused a huge uproar amongst many people. There is still no evidence on why the shooting occured and if it was racially motivated.

I'm not really surprised because there's been a huge spike in Asian/ Asian American hate crimes since the pandemic. I find it quite ironic because from what I've seen, more Asians are doing things scientists tell them, like wearing masks and keeping distance compared to a lot of white people and some other poc.

8 people got shot at asian-owned salons. The sheriff said that the shooter was supposedly "having a bad day." It's very sad that the sheriff himself believed that. It was obviously because of the anti-asian sentiment caused by the pandemic. It's not their fault if so many people in this country don't want to wear masks, because that's why our country has nearly 30 million cases and more than 500,000 deaths.

Its awful. Its honestly scary to see that people genuinely think Asians should die. I think its because of the people who have been blaming COVID on Chinese people. Calling it things like the "Chinavirus" is spreading this idea in people's head that it's their fault. The shooter targeted a Asian buisness, where he probably knew Asians would be.

Racism against American Asian is getting bigger and bigger, it's something different then racism against African American people.

Its just sad, like really really sad. They didn't deserve to die, no one really does. Even if he was having a "bad day" he still has no right to be shooting innocent people.

I don't understand why someone would do something like this, just because they are against someone or in this case a race. This makes me sad and angry, and I am tired of people hurting other people for now reason. This is very unfortunate and I hope that the correct action is taken on them.

This is horrible. The article makes me feel sick. I'm positive that this is a hate crime against Asian people, especially Asian women. The fact that people act this way over skin color and where people come from is absolutely disgusting. I have absolutely no sympathy towards the shooter. I really hope that the families of the victims are okay.

I think that this was a very sad event that occured. I think these events were racial because it was a white guy that decided to kill 6 asians due to the coronavirus. Ever since covid started, people started blaming asians because the coronavirus started in China. Asians were being judged and harrassed, even though they weren't Chinese and/or they didn't even go to China.

A crazy white dude shot up massage parlors. What else is new?

# data[].attributes.body
The fact that most of the victims were Asian women leads me to believe that the shooter has hate against Asian Americans, due to the COVID-19 pandemic originating from China. However, I think the only reason why people are starting to focus attention on this is because even though these type of incidents happened last year as well, BLM movements stole the light for 2020, and since then people started to turn their attention to other stuff. Also, I know this was probably due to COVID-19 xenophobia, but also probably because of the Xinjiang stuff, and I think whites are angry at Asians, especially Chinese Americans for not going against the massacre of Uyghurs.

This article and the event itself make me feel very sad. Hate against Asians isn't something new, it's been going on since the beginning of the pandemic. It's horrible that it takes something as severe as this to bring it to attention.

Reading this article makes me feel really angry and sad since this was such an unfortunate and cruel thing for someone to do. I don't understand why someone should do this. In the midst of this pandemic, I would think that people would be start and try to work together/ care for each other to peacefully end this pandemic. Instead of that, people are hating others who had nothing to do with the start of the pandemic... it is really sad.

As the article stated the shooting may have been a hate crime against Asian Americans. Due to the coronavirus starting in China many Asian Americans in the US have had to deal with racism against them. Former president Trump did not help the case of the racism either by calling COVID-19 the "China Virus". President Biden and other US leaders need to inform the public on not doing such crimes, as an Asian person is just as likely to get coronavirus as a person from any other race. The people who have been doing these crimes need to be severely charged in order to stop the racism from happening.

I think that the reason for this violence towards Asian people is that people need to blame someone. Many people who are inciting these attacks were probably hit hard by this pandemic, maybe have lost their jobs or homes. And they feel the need to turn that anger onto someone. They turn to Asians because of Trump's influence, probably. These individuals probably believed Trump when he called this the "Asian virus" of "Kung flu" (very racist and disrespectful btw), and so Asians are blamed for bringing the virus here, when hey had nothing to do with it!

# data[].attributes.body
I think that this shooting was racially charged and that this was done on purpose, considering the recent up rise of violence against the Asian community.

I think that the act of hate against Asian Americans is very tragic and sad. I don't know why people do it, and ruin other people's lives as well as their own just for that, and it is a very sad story to here.

According to the New york times it could have been Anti Asian Biased.

tragic event. should not happen. yup that's it. Hate crimes against asians started BEFORE trump said anything. In this case the Spanish flu is racist. West Nile fever is racist too. Some said following presidents orders but those weren't the presidents orders. Im sure we all know that

It makes me feel angry towards the shooter who killed the eight women in the spa. I don't understand what people like the suspected shooter are trying to succeed by committing these crimes.

The world has become crazy, the attacks against many racial groups like African Americans, latin Americans and middle eastern people wasn't all, but there have also been attacks against the Asian american community. Especially after COVID-19, which makes no sense since asian people had no control over the virus and its unfair to place any blame on them or on anybody.
