I will 100% disclose that I am way too fired up about this right now and this is why it's a good thing I'm not in charge of this kind of stuff - but why aren't any of these headlines about the Atlanta shooting mentioning that the shooter targeted Asian-owned businesses? I understand the need for caution in breaking news, but it's a fact at this point that the shooter sought out Asian-owned businesses. All these headlines mention are massage parlors, spas. Why is "Asian-owned" not pertinent when it applies to three separate businesses?

Some of the Democratic presidential candidates descend upon San Francisco today for the DNC summer meeting. Kamala Harris, with the hometown advantage, has a gaggle of supporters throughout the venue, waving signs and chanting. Nancy Pelosi, another hometown hero, walked on stage to a standing ovation, following a hype video of all her greatest hits. Countering that, a woman wearing an “Impeach Trump Now” shirt holds up a sign reading, “Nancy, you’ve drunk your own Kool-Aid.”

This is yet another prime example of Bay Area wealth disparities coming to a head in a truly flabbergasting, dehumanizing fashion: Oakland real estate developer plans on shooting dollar bills over a homeless encampment in hopes of getting them to leave. Gene Gorelik is now on his bullhorn, announcing, “Free money! Free money!” Residents and community activists shout back, “Fuck you, Gene!”
