Notes -
The other day, I was telling herself about the spree killer who targeted massage therapists in Atlanta. Being that most of the victims were Asian women, initial reports understandably characterised it as a hate crime targeting Asian people. But when the perpetrator was arrested, he went to great pains to explain that he didn't murder those women because they were Asian, but because they were vile whores leading him (and other men like him) into temptation.
There's something darkly amusing about a man who will freely admit to being a sex addict, to deliberately targeting physically and economically vulnerable women for violence, to blaming women for his inability to control his own sexual appetites, to despising prostitutes and sex workers, to being a murderer – but I'm not racist, guys!
