The shooter, a white man, killed three people after writing messages of hatred for Black people. He killed himself after opening fire in a dollar store.
A white gunman fatally shot three Black people in hate-motivated shooting at a Dollar General retailer in Jacksonville on Saturday afternoon, Sheriff T.K. Waters said.
"This shooting was racially motivated, and he hated Black people," the sheriff said at a news conference. "He wanted to kill n------."

The sheriff just casually dropped the N word in this press conference?
Yes, he’s Black, and he said that it was the only time he was going to say it. I feel like it’s his prerogative to decide when he can say that in response to an attack on his community.
When said by the right person in the right context, that word can go from a word used to attack the innocent to a word used to condemn the racist.
Props.
