The FBI is investigating a racially-motivated shooting in Jacksonville, FL after police say a white man drove 40 miles in search of Black people to kill, leaving 3 dead. Florida State Senator Tracie Davis joins Katie Phang to discuss the impact the tragedy has had on the local community.
I think claiming “no parent” is optimistic since plenty of parents are happy to beat their children unconscious or rent them out to pedophiles.
But even glossing over that, those “bigots and assholes” definitely create fertile soil for a murderer to bloom. It’s not like being raised amid guns, domestic violence and extreme racism is going to make someone less likely to go on a killing spree.
I guess the perspective I am coming from is a parent. Most I talk to are trying to be good parents. Then again I am not associated with people like you are describing in the first paragraph.
