The massage parlor shootings weren't targeting asians, they were targeting sex workers, of which asians in that area happened to make up a high number. It seems silly that this is being reported as violence against asians instead of violence against sex workers.

The shooter said it wasn't racially motivated, not all of the victims were asian, and he shot up sex worker locations

I mean often yeah? Generally mass shooters don't seem to make up other motivations, they usually try to use the shooting as a loud flag for the message they're trying to convey

2 out of 8 is collateral damage. Every racist says they aren't racist. How do you know they were sex worker locations? Do you? Or did you assume they were because of stereotypes about asian massage parlors?

No, I assumed they were because the shooter said his actions were related to sexual addiction, and that he was also planning on targeting the porn industry
