The experience of interdependence is nonviolence, peace, an end to suffering. That experience is running headlong into all forms of dominance/subordination/devaluation which lead to violence. We have to remember our humanity, and that others have been dehumanized by these forces.
There are layers. This man clearly devalued Asian women. His violence was an act of domination. He was deeply conflicted about sexual impulses, and felt he had to dominate them by casting them out. The worst of fundamentalist inhumanity to self and other.
