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------.”
he was out of his mind with FEAR… nothing else…
You’re probably not wrong. Conservatives have been shown to have a larger amygdala, yielding a greater reaction to fear and disgust.
that’s true for “stupid” people in general… peasants and morons, people like that…
Not sure why the downvotes, I think you’re right, fear is at the source of this muderous behaviour. This is the meaning carried by the “phobia” in “negrophobia”, " homophobia", etc. These people feel their very existence is threatened by their victims : they’ve been indoctrinated into thinking their “race” or “culture” are driven to extinction by other people. So yes, it’s absolutely fear.
more to the point maybe, 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” (that idea never makes sense anyway), 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…
and just to reiterate because it’s so important: it is USELESS to try to find a coherent idea of any kind in those heads
