我见 我思 我闻

亚城悲剧 震惊全国

位於亚特兰大市郊附近的三家按摩院, 週二下午被一名二十一岁的白人兇手罗伯朗在店内枪杀了八名工作人员，其中六名是韩裔亚洲人，目前兇手已经被捕，他告诉警方自己是一名色情狂徒，他也是这三家按摩店之常客。

此兇杀案也震惊了拜登总统，一般认為值此反华亚裔情绪高张之时，可能会涉及种族歧视，但是，警方已查明这位年轻兇嫌是名色情狂，最近才被家人驱出家门，应该和种族歧视无关，

今天在南韩访问的国务卿布林肯也向韩国当局表示哀悼。

事发之后，引起了亚城及全国亚裔社区之高度关怀和恐慌，近月来，全美各地反亚裔之仇视事件已经层出不穷，一股对华亚裔之反对浪潮正在各阶层酝酿，即便是在联邦和地方政府之不断呼吁，那些右翼种族份子还在不断渲染新冠病毒是来自中国之病毒。

当新冠病毒还在我们社区继续蔓延之时，社会治安不断恶化，我们要严防反亚裔事件之上演，也呼吁大家要立即报案绝不能吞声忍气。

我们要向受害人之家属表示哀悼，对兇嫌一定要严厉处置，还给我们亚裔社区一个公道。

We Hope The Bloody Murders Were Not Racially Motivated 

A twenty-one year old white man went on a rampage at three spas in the Atlanta area Tuesday afternoon killing eight people. Six of them were of Asian decent.

Investigators said they had not ruled out racial bias as a motivating factor even though the suspect denied any racial animus.

The gunman told the police that he had a “sexual addiction” and had carried out the shooting at the massage parlors to eliminate his “temptation.” The authorities charged Robert Aaron Long, 21, on Wednesday with eight counts of murder and one count of aggravated assault in connection with the shootings.

We are here to urge our Asian community to be united to meet the challenge. President Biden also expressed his concern about the shooting in Georgia while renewing his concerns over a recent surge in violence against Asian-Americans. The president said, “At this very moment so many of them, our fellow Americans, they’re on the front line of this pandemic trying to save lives, yet also in fear for their own lives just walking down the streets in America. It’s wrong, it’s un-American and it must stop.”

This is the time all of our leaders need to call emergency meeting talks about this serious issue. We need the people to understand how to protect our community.
