So his PTSD and schizophrenia isn't taken into account? or is mental illness only an alibi for white mass murderers

The police are investigating his claims of PTSD and mental illness.

Likely, there's no evidence of it.

Just as "a lot" of feminists seem to blame all men for every evil in the world, and "a lot" of Right-Wingers seem to blame all Left-Wingers for every evil in the world, so too does it seem that "a lot" of non-whites blame white people for every evil in the world.

Conclusion? Whatever you hate the most simply must be blamed, no matter how ridiculous your claim may be.

The weird part is white people blaming white people for every evil in the world, going on about how vile evil and disgusting white people are and how ashamed they are of being white.

So that was Friday, then the San Diego area synagogue terrorist attack today. I'm really fed up w/all this white nationalist terrorist crap.

This guy is not white.

Yes, I see that. You don't need to be white to support white nationalist bs when your job used to be to kill Muslims for a living in Iraq. He's doing what he was trained to do and in the context of the US, he's supporting white nationalist politics or another term I like, US apartheid. This s**t has got to stop and whether you like to hear it or not, Trump's at the center of the problem. I'm sick of living in a fascist f*****g society b/c white people voted for him or try to ignore the apartheid, caste system that dominates US society. And they do it b/c they're scared of forces unleashed by Wall Street, which happily abets the targeting of black, brown, yellow, red and other people of color here and abroad. For some reason many, if not most whites, think they benefit from this s**t, which in some ways they do, the same way they did under slavery, when we were genociding and stealing millions of acres of Natives' lands, during Jim Crow, as we're doing to Latinos now. Frankly, it makes me wish I wasn't white, it's f*****g shameful, barbaric and disgusting.

That's what his defense attorney will likely argue.

That he's just a victim of casual forces that made him do this.


Yes, sadly maybe so. I hope it's clear that isn't at all what I'm saying though. He should get the book thrown at him for committing a terrorist hate crime. I'm simply saying that he's doing here what the white nationalist movement and cops here (which has heavily infiltrated the military and pig cops across the country) and the military and us private military contractors do to people of color abroad all the time. Those institutions are designed to run that way, as I take it you also understand. He definitely has agency, whatever the f his mental health issues are, I don't really care and I doubt the 13 yo girl's family or the his other victims do either. But at the same time he's the product of an imperialist caste system that turns even people of color who serve in it into killing machines who target Muslims in particular (among other vulnerable populations). So the issues involved are systemic.

Why? It's sickening. I mean correct me if I'm mistaken but who's always been in control of what's now the US since the English first established their dominance, no later than what, 1700? There's nothing weird to be ashamed of one's own background when this is the price of it: f*****g apartheid. I don't wanna live in that kind of society, if nothing else b/c it's also what feeds the ableism that I bet every single person on this website has been a victim of at one time or in another in their lives.

And as to the other poster(s) who say "not all white people", the Germans and the Japanese said that during WWII. You have to face the fact whether you like it or not that this is still a deeply racist society and the group that's on top because it holds power in this country (and beyond that exercises it over the rest of the world, most of which isn't white) are people of European descent. The whole purpose of this thread reflects that fact. Until white people come to grips with that reality, this will continue to be a disgusting caste-based society.
