As police continue investigating the motive behind the
heinous mass shooting in Monterey Park, California, in Los Angeles
County, another incident in the San Francisco Bay Area has occurred. The
shooting also involves multiple fatalities—this time in Half Moon Bay,
a city in San Mateo County. The victims are Asian, and the shooter is
also an Asian male. The shooter was later arrested by police (via NBC News):

A
suspected gunman was arrested Monday after seven people were fatally
shot at two nurseries near a small city south of San Francisco,
authorities said.
The victims were found just
outside Half Moon Bay, a coastal city of roughly 11,000 about 30 miles
south of San Francisco, San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus told
reporters.
An eighth victim was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries, Corpus said.
The
suspected shooter was identified as Zhao Chunli, 67. Aerial video
captured by NBC Bay Area showed Chunli surrendering to authorities at a
sheriff's substation in Half Moon Bay.

It’s
another tragedy that won’t get passed through the local circuit
because, again, there’s nothing to weaponize against the GOP. The media
may milk it for coverage, given that this is a classic if it ‘bleeds it
ledes’ story, but I would hope liberals would think before they tweet
stupid stuff, like how this is racially motivated violence. Over the
course of a few days, two angry Asian men killed other Asians. It’s
horrible, but liberal media outlets are probably beside themselves that
the shooters weren’t rabid white supremacists. No white shooter was
wearing a ‘MAGA’ hat—I know that’s what they want, but it isn’t here.
There’s no life jacket to be thrown to the Biden administration,
drowning in a scandal over Joe’s classified document giveaway. Mr.
Dementia, leaving state secrets in his garage and elsewhere, will remain
the top news item.
