Atlanta mayor calls police depiction of motive in spa killings 'victim blaming'
Earlier at the news conference, Baker drew scrutiny for his matter-of-fact description of Long’s mindset.
“He was pretty much fed up and kind of at the end of his rope and yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did,” Baker said, adding that the businesses were seen by Long as “a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate.”
The mayor countered the depiction used by Capt. Jay Baker of the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Department shortly after he pointed to suspect Robert Aaron Long’s assertion that “sexual addiction” rather than racism toward Asian Americans was behind his shooting rampage.
“We are not about to get into victim blaming, victim shaming, here,” Bottoms said at a Wednesday news conference, adding, “We don’t know additional information about what his motives were. We will not begin to blame victims, and as far as we know in Atlanta these are legally operating businesses that have not been on our radar, the radar of [the Atlanta Police Department].”

Why is it when "white men create horrendous crimes'.... its played off as "he/she was having a bad day", "they had not taken their medication", "they were just good ole boys having fun", and a long list of other phrases that try and sanitize the vile nature and inhumane acts they created'.
Baker's words were horrible for society, it amounts to an common act to cover up the fact that "another white man" is blaming others for his own conditions.
Then there is others, saying "Oh' he was a church going person, and deeply into religion".. (If that is true then why did he not seek professional help, ask his pastor to assist him to get help for his own mental obsessions)
There are many articles of how some, have long held a self delusion of Asian women as being passive and docile and submissive, and degrade them by looking at them as some exotic disposable pleasure toy.
Asian women working in these SPA's is not a sign of any weakness, the cultures across Asia have a long history of knowing the value of "healing through touch and body massage, aromatics, and many other health beneficial techniques". (People should read their history, they'd know the depth and character of these facts and they will stop thinking Asian women are weak and submissive and can be taken advantage of).
No society advance without strong women, and no society is sustained over centuries without strong women. The misperceptions of historical cultures, overlook much in how the real life roles of women have always been crucial and instrumental to the advancements in all societies.
