Maybe the shooter, a Vietnamese, was after the Chinese.

Might have been ARVN, or might have even been VC. Or it could be a personal grudge he had against a business or people hosting it?

Kinda an odd time for him to do that. If it’s anything interesting, it’ll get covered up.

Why did he do this?

The NY Post reports that it might have been domestic violence related. His wife was invited to the party, but he wasn't. So he shot it up.

6 Things You Hear Growing up Hmong

Don’t sit on the bag of rice. If you sit on rice, your future children will be born without a butt.

Don’t step on mushrooms. Poj Ntxhoom (a demon) will appear and watch you from atop the trees.

Don’t whistle at night. If you hear something whistle back at you, you may have just awakened a wandering spirit and it will follow you bringing bad omen.

Don’t comb/brush out your hair at night.

Never point to the moon. The moon will come down and slice your ear.

Always tuck your feet in when you sleep. Poj Ntxhoom lurks at the ends of the bed and if you wake up to your feet being tickled, well you know who did it. Poj Ntxhooms are active at the moment right before you fall into deep sleep.

For the D.I.E. crowd Asians count as “white”.

We will never know if this was really the shooter. Very convenient for anyone who might want to cover something up.

In a culture it makes sense but of course it still does not make sense.

That 10.5% divorce rate for whites is not questionable but interesting in the face of the statistic that I read where only 18% of households with children are conventional... meaning I suppose children living with both original parent units who are married.

Unless he’s carrying a Roth-Steyer or a Mauser broomhandle.

I have a close friend from Taiwan that was very very angry about this case - he felt it wasn’t a Chinese shooter at all, most likely ‘another Asian,’ not Chinese.

Turns out he was correct.

When he heard the names “Tran” he said that is a Vietnamese name.

So sorry for the families of the victims.

He was “White adjacent” they’ll say.

You know it. These days, when it comes to large crowd events, you really do need to scope out your back doors, emergency exits, etc, and keep away from that front door funnel zone.

Well considering his age was 72 I expect he was of the old school mindset on marriage.

“...a 9 mm Cobray M11 submachine gun...”

So, did he have the closed-bolt semi-auto pistol version, or the open-bolt-convertible-to-bullet-hose version?

We are getting little bits of information but I saw this:

Tran is a Chinese immigrant.

“The sheriff said California has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation.”

Both on Heavy website.

I didn’t see this anywhere else but in Fast Facts on Heavy.com is said he is a Chinese immigrant.

Diversity is the national religion, and any questioning of it is heresy.

I know what diversity is, but I don't understand what it has to do with this mass shooting. It was an Asian killing Asians. How does diversity fit in?

Yeah. He’s from Vietnam apparently, hence the name. But he’s Chinese.

Could be from southwest China and uses a weird Vietnamese type spelling.

Tran is Chen in Mandarin. His name is 陳友艮。
