If that Raptor is the victim's car where he got shot, then yeah there may be something suspicious. Living with roommates and driving a Raptor seems off.
Or he borrowed a friend's car who has gang connections, and unfortunately they targeted the car. So he ended up taking the hit for the car owner.

You can't be both fully Indian and South East Asian.
SE Asia is Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam etc. South Asia is India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc.
Victims were both Punjabi, so they Indian/South Asian

I believe that the PC term is "First Nation", not Indians with the feathers.
It is only the European explorers way back in the day who were lousy with geography that called the First Nation people "Indians" because they thought that their ships landed in India.
For this particular shooting in White Rock, the victims were South Asian.

"First Nations" is already out, the preferred term now is "Indigenous Peoples".

First Nations isn't as inclusive as Indigenous peoples though. Inuit and Metis for example are not First Nations. So that's why we use the I word now.
What no one can tell me is why we stopped using Aboriginal, which we did for a short time I wanna say from 2000s-2010s

What no one can tell me is why we stopped using Aboriginal, which we did for a short time I wanna say from 2000s-2010s | I literally just asked google, the answer doesn't make sense to me. They're both being used as a broad generalization?
"Why do we not use the term Aboriginal?
“Aboriginal” has been an umbrella term used by Canadians and Canadian institutions for convenience. It's used to categorize all Indigenous Peoples from across Canada as one big homogenized group. ”Aboriginal” is an oversimplification that hides more meaning than it conveys.Jun 17, 2020"
I noted that in Australia the term has racist connotations.

I don't want to be disrespectful to the designated groups, but when it comes to both indigenous and LGBTQ+ communities, I honestly have no clue and can't keep up with the constantly evolving terms that are the correct ones to use.

He msged me going "It was a black man who did it, I'm very disappointed"
