we had no idea how gun laws worked or how things changed in the wake of that tragedy.

A Black man attacks an Asian man and it's the White mans fault.
Can you imagine the mental gymnastics these folks have to do to believe this ? How do they even begin to make that connection ?
I honestly can't wrap my brain around that level of gullible.

No. It has zero to do with slavery.
You can trace the devolution back to the Great Society where welfare started to break up the family. The rules disincentivized a whole family, and coming out of the Civil Rights era, the struggle to break out was plenty hard because racism was still factor. Plenty fell into the welfare trap, and we're no reaping the rewards of generational broken families living on welfare. It's not at all pretty.
And I'm not sure how you begin to heal that damage, but one thing you should not do is keep blaming everyone and everything else for the problem when a large part of it lies with the people themselves. Until they start to repair their own damage, nothing else is going to help them. It will have to be a whole society effort, and it starts with personal responsibility all the way around.
But the same damage happens to any demographic.

Maybe the attacker "identified" as being white ?
Crazy times indeed

Its 2021, so maybe he was self identifying as a white woman for that day?
