At least eight people have been killed in a series of shootings at three Atlanta area massage parlours, with a number of the victims described by authorities as women of Asian descent.

A 21-year-old man, Robert Aaron Long, has been taken into custody following an hours-long manhunt as police told local media that he was the suspect in all three shootings. An alleged motive has not been described.

Georgia’s Governor Brian Kemp praised police for their quick apprehension of a suspect – without incident on the I-75 highway, adding: “Our entire family is praying for the victims of these horrific acts of violence.”

The shootings occurred shortly after one another on Tuesday afternoon. Four people were killed at Young’s Asian Massage near Acworth in Cherokee county, Georgia, about 30 miles (50km) north-west of Atlanta.

Shortly after, at 5.47pm, Atlanta police officers responded to a reported robbery at Gold Spa in the city’s north-east where three women had been killed. Police were then alerted to another shooting across the street at the Aromatherapy Spa where the body of another woman was found.

Seven of the victims were women, and six were Asian, according to police. Another man was injured in the attacks.

Although police in Georgia have not described a motive, the NYPD counter terrorism bureau announced it had deployed officers from their Critical Response Command to Asian communities around New York City.

“While there is no known nexus to #NYC we will be deploying assets to our great Asian communities across the city out of an abundance of caution,” the bureau said in a tweet.

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

MILWAUKEE ATLANTA—In the hours following a violent rampage in Wisconsin Georgia in which a lone attacker killed five eight individuals, including himself, citizens living in the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs reportedly concluded Wednesday that there was no way to prevent the massacre from taking place. “This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop them,” said South Dakota resident Jason Murphy, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the world’s deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations. “It’s a shame, but what can we do? There really wasn’t anything that was going to keep this individual from snapping and killing a lot of people if that’s what they really wanted.” At press time, residents of the only economically advanced nation in the world where roughly two mass shootings have occurred every month for the past eight years were referring to themselves and their situation as “helpless.”

Electrocution remained the primary method of execution until October 5th, 2001 when the Georgia Supreme Court declared the practice unconstitutional as cruel and unusual punishment, after which Georgia converted to using lethal injection.

If "sex addiction" makes you murder people -- I mean if that's literally a thing that happens -- then we need a federal law mandating strict sex addiction screening for every gun owner or potential owner.

t than their lives. Apart from the sexual fetishization of Asian women in white western culture, which is a whole ginormous thing on its own, taken at his word the shooter viewed these women as nothing more than objects for his own sexual gratification. This is plainly racism, whether the murderer acknowledges it or not.
