I don't disagree with the rest of the post but the bolded is wtf levels of reverse racism.

It's just unreported.
Again, lots of people say we have a black on black crime problem, the fact you say it proves the phrase exists. The phase white on white crime has never been uttered on a television, even though in purely numerical numbers their are equal if not more white crimes committed against other white people than black crimes committed against other black people. But you don't care that 2500+ white people got killed by white people this year. Neither does the media. You asked why 8 people killed was more newsworthy than an incident in which the majority of cases is 3 or 4 people shot, and 1 or 0 people dead. I told you why it was more important, far more deadly, and far more random as well as a high body count.

8 dead, if it happened last year would have been the deadliest shooting in America. Almost likely to get all the agencies possible to investigate. On top of that Asian businesses are rarely the target of mass shootings. While parties in the ghetto with intoxicated people is likely were a plurality of shootings with 3 or more people occur.

Whether it was deflection or a poor attempt thereof is not something I care to debate with you.

Look at the claim he/she made and examine the claims I made based on FBI statistics.

Don't allow yourself to have your emotions manipulated by media coverage. A criminal homicide is a criminal homicide is a criminal homicide. It happens all the time in certain parts of the country. Ask yourself why there's little or no media coverage (outside local news outlets).

let's hold our judgement until we know it was racially motivated.

Do you think black-on-black crime is not a problem?

2,500 white people have been killed by other white people this year?

It doesn't matter that it gets mentioned on TV or not. It's not manipulated or hidden or magnified to create and then to perpetuate agendas.

"Parties in the ghetto with intoxicated people" - that's not all black-on-black criminal homicides. I ask you not to varnish these murders with such mitigating language. And given you know what a mass shooting is, you know that most mass shootings in 2020 weren't committed by whites and nor by Asians.

I explained it to you. most of those deaths your looking at is 1 person killed by another person or a group of perpetrators. This story is 8 people killed. It doesn't matter how many people are killed if 1 or 2 people are killed. Every story with more than 4 deaths regardless of location has made national news, because 4 deaths in one incident is much heavier than 0 deaths, but multiple shot or 1 death. The shooting's your talking about in the hood, usually have 0, 1 or 2 deaths, not enough to garner national attention.

So no 8 people don't' get killed in a single event in the hood everyday, every week or even once a year. 8 people killed makes the news regardless of location.

What in the world do Black people have to do with this shooting? It’s a common tactic here and it makes zero sense. Black people were nowhere near involved in this shooting, a White guy pulled the trigger, there weren’t even Black victims, yet, here’s C-D with “Black people!”

If you're saying there are whites in rural Georgia who are bigoted towards nonwhites... I can believe that.

However, if you're saying that being a rural white Georgian who goes to church will contribute to a person deliberately targeting nonwhites for murder, then I'm not going to agree.

There are far more penalties, sanctions, and other "deterrents" in 2021 to keep evil-minded white people from murdering nonwhites than in ages past. Surveillance cameras are everywhere. And besides, while I can see that rural Georgians may have amidst their numbers folks who dislike Asians, given that Georgia is a southern state, I would surmise bigoted folks from "the backroads of Georgia" as you call it would be more hostile towards blacks. As such, why didn't he target blacks?

It's a very good thing he didn't - but the best thing would have been for him to target nobody. It's unfortunately and tragically not the case.

A poster whose user ID includes the name of natives of a certain African country is also doing it. Are you going to tell him to stop or are you only targeting me because he's (apparently) black?

And your explanation falls short. The media has a narrative to uphold. It appears you may have one as well.
