Sad, sad story. A home invasion has to be one of the most degrading crimes imaginable.
This man suffered a tragic loss in a most despicable manner by thugs who need to be removed from society. Unfortunately, when one chooses to deal drugs from their home they are bound to make the acquaintance of some pretty unsavory characters.
Drug dealers make perfect home invasion targets as they typically have large amounts of cash and drugs on hand and are unlikely to report the invasion to police.
Please don't hammer me for "blaming the victim" as I'm just stating some obvious facts about dealing drugs from one's home.

from a hail of bullets allegedly fired by Asian gangbangers late Monday. But, but according to many Freepers, Asians are a "model minority" and only Latinos are capable of being gangbangers /sarcasm.

What is surprising about this story is that it appears the victims were not Asians. Asian gangs almost always prey on their own.

Based on my experiences living in Brooklyn and Seattle, you are correct. There were several cases in recent memory in which (specifically) Chinese immigrants were brutally murdered in home invasions, dismembered bodies and all. In cases where the perps were caught, they were associated with criminal Tongs.

Asian and Russians don't really have gangs (although Oriental Boyz is a gang in the L.A. tradition) they're mostly organized crime groups who may have some influence by gangs, such as being taxed by the homies if you know what I mean.
Just look at who is locked up and who does what and then you'll see who is ruthless. I only say this so that you get a better grasp of reality and your surroundings cuz what you said contradicts what I know.

Asians do tend to do well, better, than latinos and blacks in the U.S. So I don't get your sarcasm. Why shouldn't they be praised as a group for that? I think it's good to encourage others to do well by good or "model" examples.

Then you should be hammered for acting like a victim for speaking the truth. Jeez, you don't need to say please about something like that. ANYONE that would take issue with you for pointing out that the man was a marijuana dealer and exposed his daughter to his criminal activities is a sleazebag. You don't have to cater, pander or be apologetic to sleazebags.

You must be awfully young to not know what 'flat earthers' are. Google it, enlighten yourself. This'en was about the fourth one listed, but there are a ton of 'em.

No problem.. I just found it interesting that you went out of your way to make a social comment regarding religion on a thread about gangstaz. Kind of a drive-by polemic, huh.

The point wasn't religion, the point was 'some FReepers' believe most dang anything. The original reply was to a post which has sarcasm tags, and saying something like 'most FReepers believe (some dang stereotype). Stereotypic and generalized 'most FReepers believe' opinions are always held by 'some FReepers'.

>>I think it's good to encourage others to do well by good or "model" examples.<<
Isn't there an age limit where the effectiveness of the encouragement slows dramatically, such as 9 or 10 yrs old?

That's just a cultural thing about removing the guys manhood. Vicious to us, common in other cultures.
