My immediate reaction to Atlanta was that the guy must have a pathological hatred of sex trafficking victims but, on reflection, it's more likely that he knew it would be an easy, unprotected place to find Asian women.
Another concern is how he managed to get to three locations before he was stopped. And, of course, being white, he's not dead or even wounded.

Seen claims the shooter was a pastor's son. The Independent has this
[Name] was described as “big into religion” and “sorta nerdy” by a former classmate at Sequoyah High, where he graduated in 2017.
[Name] and his family have a long association with the Crabapple First Baptist Church in Milton, Georgia, according to social media posts dating back several years
It feels like the overlap between white supremacism and evangelical Christianity in America is increasing.

Not a surprise this police officer has anti Asian posts on his Facebook.
You can't make this stuff up.

Report of a active shooter at a grocery store in Boulder, CO. Fired upon police when they arrived, and he's inside the store still. A livestream from someone in the parking lot shows that almost all of the windows have been shot out.

ATLANTA—In the hours following a violent rampage in Georgia in which a lone attacker killed eight individuals and injured one other, 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 Iowa resident Jamie Harkin, 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.”
