Deadly church shooting motivated by Taiwan-China conflict: Police

[IronLionZion]

1. "Authorities believe Chou's anger began when he lived in Taiwan

where he felt he was an outsider, and his anti-Taiwan views were not accepted, Barnes said."

Chou's wife and son still live in Taiwan, but Chou has lived alone in the U.S. for many years, Barnes said, adding that Chou's views have become more radical as tensions between China and Taiwan have escalated.

Investigators found writings in Chou's car that described his hatred for Taiwan, Barnes said, adding that they were not a manifesto, but rather "notes." Authorities hypothesize that Chou may have targeted the Orange County church because it was the closest, Barnes said.

I guess anti-Taiwan views are not accepted in Taiwan. No one could have foreseen that.

Like most mass shooters, we're not dealing with the sharpest tool in the shed.
