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------.”
more importantly, it’s useless to try to find a coherent idea inside their heads, with the idea of treating it, or heading it off in others or something… they consume a steady diet of fear inducing media, and look to their gun as the only help… when they snap, they’re just looking for the most convenient excuse to use the firearm finally…
it isn’t about anyone’s “race”, simply because that idea never makes sense, so much as someone is telling him appearance or culture is a fear vector for him (i.e. people who look and think differently hate HIM)… he’s listening for any reason to be afraid, it really doesn’t matter…
in fact, trying to assign the problem to his race or a racial idea is just doing the same in reverse… trying to find a reason to fear someone and create a fear vector in people’s minds…
