Lunar New Year festival. Black on Asian shooting maybe? I know there’s been an uptick of black on Asian crime in New York in the past couple of years.

Literally don’t care. As long as Asians as a group vote for Democrats, they deserve the government they voted for.

Just stay outta my state.

Maybe it is a Tong war. Any hatchets recovered?

"Lunar New Year festival. Black on Asian shooting maybe?

There just may be some "new" players in town. The Mexican cartels have lots of fresh help coming across the wide open border. Maybe it's time to make a move..(?)

“Maybe it is a Tong war. Any hatchets recovered?”

“Each Tong had salaried soldiers, known as boo how doy.”

I have wondered if the term “boy howdy” came from the “boo how doy” Tong soldier.

If the shooter is white, we’ll never hear the end of it.

Lunar new year? Check for sappers inside the wire.

My guess this is a gang issue or spurned lover. Since only one shooter probably the latter.

Re: "If the shooter is white, we'll never hear the end of it."

Agree.

The fact that the shooting started one hour after the last event indicates to me that the shooter(s) were not planning a mass casualty incident.

I am hoping this is gang related.

Of course, if an AR-15 is involved, we will never hear the end of that, either.

I notice the news is making it less about the violent acts, and more about guns themselves, as usual.

I discovered this YouTuber who has a unique view on our swelling violence and woke movements in the west. He is sort of a Darwin revisionist and says our population is swelling with low iq misfits filled with mutations. They lack both the self control and thinking skills to restrain violent tendencies we all have.

The cause being social welfare nets that protect and nurture the unproductive who otherwise would have been at a reproductive disadvantage.

Not politically correct but he makes sense.

they accomplished what they are meant to accomplish, create a reason for more gun control.

No description tells you all you need to know. It’s been hours since the shooting and no one saw the shooter?

No one “saw” the shooter. Exactly. Score to be settled at a later date.

Dunno, sounds very plausible.

My very limited Mandarin tells me that "boo how" means "no good" I don't know what "doy" means.
