Yet another massacre in the United States yesterday in Jacksonville, Florida.
A white boy in his early 20s, dressed in military gear and armed with an assault rifle and a swastika-engraved pistol, walked into a Dollar General store near the campus of Edward Waters University , a small college historically African-American, he barricaded himself inside and opened fire.
Three victims, two African American men and one woman: the killer then turned the Nazi pistol on himself and killed himself. Before carrying out the massacre, he called his parents and asked them to spread his racist manifesto on the media and social media in which he declared that he "hated ni... and wanted to kill them".
A massacre that has probably been prepared for months, down to the smallest detail, which it will now be up to the FBI to analyze to understand how and when the twenty-year-old killer became radicalized.
From the beginning of the year to today there have been hundreds of shootings throughout the United States and Joe Biden's appeals to Congress to enact more restrictive laws on the possession of weapons have failed in vain , especially "war" weapons as the American president has termed the assault rifles.
In addition to the massacre in Jacksonville, only yesterday there were a shooting during the Caribbean carnival in Boston with seven injured and another at a high school football game in Choctaw, Oklahoma in which a sixteen year old was killed.
