Huh? Taiwanese isn't a race, it's a nationality. And the gunman was also Asian.

The media keeps saying that US may have a hot war with China over Taiwan. I guess all this war talk is enough to push the mentally ill over the edge. 

Hope China and the West lets Taiwan be.

The police seemed to have made several unnecessary reporting errors in their early reporting on this.

 

He's apparently a Taiwanese-American (the last name would have been the first clue) and naturalized citizen, moving to the US from Taiwan decades ago, where he was born. He was apparently a KMT anti-communist. 

 

 

The knee-jerk of even liberals to jump on fear-mongering of "Chinese MIGRANTS!!" to now they've supported people like Andy Ngo and other alt-right figures vilifying Chinese immigration. 

 

RIP to Dr. John Cheng

Ofc the western imperialist gays would ignore that he's a Taiwanese. I guess he is Chinese alright.

*a terrorist attack by a pro-CCP nationalist.

It looks like the shooting has finally been labelled as a hate crime.
