Hundreds of people gathered Sunday at prayer vigils and in church, in frustration and exhaustion, to mourn yet another racist attack in America: this one the killing of three Black people in Florida at the hands of a white, 21-year-old man who authorities say left behind white supremacist ramblings that read like “the diary of a madman.”

Following services earlier in the day, about 200 people showed up at a Sunday evening vigil a block from the Dollar General store in Jacksonville where officials said Ryan Palmeter opened fire Saturday using guns he bought legally despite a past involuntary commitment for a mental health exam.

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis — who is running for the GOP nomination for president, who has loosened gun laws in Florida and who has antagonized civil rights leaders by deriding “wokeness " — was loudly booed as he addressed the vigil.

    A video of a crowd throwing meatballs at Ron DeSantis would be the funniest shit.

      Let’s torture a bunch of animals to death and throw their corpses at him! That’ll be so funny!

        Would beyond meatballs make you happy or is there some other greater cause you’d upstream from that action in the name of virtue signaling?

          I think you’re confused about what virtue signaling means.

        That horse you’re on is so high that it died of hypoxia. How do you sleep at night killing innocent horses in this way?

          It’s not very high. Not torturing animals is a pretty low bar.

          Yikes. Reported for threatening violence. My comment really hit a nerve, didn’t it?
