The shooter, a white man, killed three people after writing messages of hatred for Black people. He killed himself after opening fire in a dollar store.
A white gunman fatally shot three Black people in hate-motivated shooting at a Dollar General retailer in Jacksonville on Saturday afternoon, Sheriff T.K. Waters said.
“This shooting was racially motivated, and he hated Black people,” the sheriff said at a news conference. “He wanted to kill n------.”
OH BOY ANOTHER LONE WOLF! CAN’T FUCKING MOVE FOR LONE WOLVES AROUND HERE!
If you ever wondered what you would do in Germany in the 30s, you’re doing it right now.
“This was, quite frankly, a maniac who decided he wanted to take lives,”
Copycat shooter with a manifesto, armed with the usual kit: A plate carrier, an AR-15, and a Glock.While I can see this is a racially motivated shooting, I think this pattern indicates some deeper… suicidal, martyrdom ideology. The intent includes the suicide. It’s suicidally motivated, too. These plans include the repetitive messaging of a newsfeed marching down the list of mass shootings by scared whitr supremacists. Racial killing, suicide, manifesto, and the date makes it a copycat killing. Is he truly a maniac, if so many are falling into this same set of cowardly cries for help?I feel no sympathy for the dead shooter. But I stare into the abyss, feeling I must empathize with the scared white supremacist who does this next.Fuck em. Let them all suicide their way out. As long as they stop taking innocent people with them, they can die in agony in a ditch as far as I’m concerned. The time for sympathy is over.

“Economic anxiety”
The sheriff just casually dropped the N word in this press conference?
Yes, he’s Black, and he said that it was the only time he was going to say it. I feel like it’s his prerogative to decide when he can say that in response to an attack on his community.
Props.
I was gonna say the world is shit, but it’s really mostly an us thing. We suck.
There is no “we” about this. It’s all them.
White supremes are gross.
Sounds like some Albino tomato species.
I watched some of the security cam. The kid walks weirdly. Like he looks like he’s stomping his feet.
3 fatalities doesn’t even qualify as a mass killing.
How sad is that?
The mass killing in Ohio on the 24th qualifies though.

Angry white men should not be the only ones in our society with guns. If you can own and carry one safely, you should at least seriously consider it.
At least he spared the state of Florida his tenure on death row.
