Exactly, people are very self serving: racist white people comment when a black guys the perp, and black ppl use this as a platform to bemoan their racial issues when a white guys the perp, but no one actually discusses or cares about the Asian victims or the culture/entertainment industry that portrays Asians in a particular, biased way which lends itself to these incidents

When the Atlanta shootings occurred, many of the All Lives Matter folks attacked the asian victims for being possible prostitutes and hosting brothels while at the same time the sheriff dismissed the situation as the shooter having a bad day. The statements were there to vindicate themselves in some fashion and it was sad to see. I'm not anti-white. I'm absolutely disgustedand horrified by people and cowards who hide behind keyboards to discredit or ignore victims to elevate their own racial tribe as if the entire race asked them to do it.

People honestly take race crimes almost as if it’s a personal attack if the perp is the same race as them. It’s like they’re afraid of being generalized so in return they generalize. The comment above articulated it perfectly & you provided a great example; why is it so hard to detach from news stories, not make it about themselves, to focus on the victim? It’s like these stories only create more racism, instead of awareness
