I've lived in the edge of a state before. It's really hard to miss what side of the populated area is one state or another, and the fact that there are laws about crossing. I knew if I went shooting in CA I needed to keep my ammunition and firearm in seperate compartments, unloaded, and that I couldn't have friends buy me a gun to take across if I couldn't legally buy it myself. And I was just shooting clay pigeons, not my racially hated neighbors.
I sure as hell know which side of the state border my town is on is the one where I don't want to be caught with weed in my car.
He's a prick but everyone he shot was the same race as him.
I'm sure that disappointed him deeply, the blatant racism isn't erased by this. He's publicly linked himself to well known racists, he's not shy about it, also he clearly went in the hopes of killing black people, pretty sure he said as much before he left.
I'm not arguing that he isn't racist. Just wanted to make sure you understood the situation properly so as not to spread misinformation.
Also I don't know if you know this, but most white supremacist would be more inclined to kill ''race traitors'' before killing other races in many situations.
I'm not saying he killed who he intended to kill. I'm saying my plan was to shoot clay pigeons. His plan was to shoot BLM protestors.
