It always breaks my heart to report on stories like this. Senseless violence is one of the most abhorrent things in our society.
Last night, for the only the seconds time in the last two years there is an active murder investigation in Cherokee County, Georgia Journal-Constitution.
Fox News Reported:
The Georgia State Patrol used a tactical PIT (pursuit intervention technique) maneuver Tuesday evening on a freeway to stop the suspect after three deadly shootings in and around Atlanta left at least eight people dead, according to a report.
Robert Aaron Long, 21, was taken into custody without incident, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Long was reportedly driving south on Interstate 75 in Crisp County when he was outmaneuvered by the state trooper.
Investigators said the first shooting occurred at about 5 p.m. at Young’s Asian Massage in the town of Ackworth, in Cherokee County. Two victims died at the scene and three were transported to a hospital, where two later died.
ess than an hour after the first shooting, police in the Buckhead neighborhood, in northeast Atlanta, responded to a call of a robbery in progress and found three women dead from apparent gunshot wounds at Gold Spa.
While at that scene, police received a call of shots fired at another spa across the street, Aromatherapy Spa, and found a woman who appeared to have been shot dead inside the business.
At least six of the eight victims were Asian women, authorities said, adding that it’s too early to say if race played a role.’
BREAKING: A mass shooter in Atlanta shot and killed seven people at multiple area spas, including four people who appear to be Asian women.
The shooting spree comes amid a rise in racist attacks against Asian Americans. #gapol https://t.co/5GoEVmv2lE

The sad truth is that, not only did a lot of people lose their lives for no good reason, this incident will surely be used by the Biden Administration to push their gun control agenda.
I just hope the actions of a few bad actors are not used by the Marxists to try and implement their gun control agenda. Americans will not accept unreasonable restrictions on our ability to defend ourselves from a regime that’s party has been dehumanizing us for years. It’s only a matter of time before …
