A white gunman who opened fire inside a Walmart in Ohio and wounded four people before killing himself may have been motivated by racist extremism, the FBI said Wednesday.
Four shoppers — two Black women, a white woman and a white man — were wounded in the attack at the Walmart in Beavercreek, a suburb of Dayton, just days before Thanksgiving, the FBI said.
Evidence, including journal writings, show the shooting may have been at least partially inspired by racially violent extremist ideology, according to the FBI.
The shooter, identified as 20-year-old Benjamin Charles Jones, of Dayton, entered the store Monday night, carrying a Hi-Point 45-caliber Carbine long gun, police said. He shot an undetermined number of rounds, leaving injured victims throughout the building, before turning the weapon on himself, authorities said.
I’m not scared of Muslim terrorists attacking the United States and committing mass murder.
I’m very scared of right-wing terrorists doing it.
They don’t need to bomb us to tear us apart anymore. They just let the right wing loonies do it for them.
Ironically while Putin fails in his assault on Ukraine, much of this has been seeded in social media as part of Russia’s geopolitical strategy to sow discord in the west and increase support for fascist regimes. Bad at military conflict, good at fucking with western people through social media

Oh yeah. Putin’s forces suck at open warfare but are great at subversion.

stats and sources please.
Don’t bother. This is a typical claim of people who think blacks are prone to crime which is a racist notion that comes from a century of racially slanted crime stats.

The first crime stats based on race in the early 1900s were bullshit and fucked up everything after. Go learn.
You can look at today stats. Go learn
Racially motivated shooting in a beavercreek Ohio Walmart feels like deja vu, but I might just be mixing a lot of details from a variety of things that happened

Yeah it’s just I lived there once and I seem to recall it happening when I lived there.
Wow. Goes on a shooting spree, kills no one, injures a few, proceeds to kill himself.
If only all mass shooting had this shitty of a perp. Better yet, how about gun control and mental health care?
