Fatal Shooting of 2 Black People Near Boston Is Investigated as a Hate Crime
The gunman, who was killed by the police, had made “anti-Semitic and racist statements,” the Suffolk County district attorney said.

The authorities in Winthrop, Mass., are investigating whether a white man who shot and killed two Black people on Saturday after crashing a stolen truck into a house was acting out of racial and religious hatred.

The suspect, Nathan Allen, 28, had made “anti-Semitic and racist statements against Black individuals,” said Rachael Rollins, the district attorney in Suffolk County. She said investigators had found “some troubling white-supremacist rhetoric” in Mr. Allen’s own handwriting.

Mr. Allen drew swastikas and wrote about “the superiority of the white race” and about how white people were “apex predators,” Ms. Rollins said in a statement.

To many people, Mr. Allen “likely appeared unassuming,” given that he was married, had a Ph.D., was employed and had no criminal history, Ms. Rollins said.

2. Just because someone "appeared unassuming" because of education and social status

Does not mean such individuals are not capable of committing heinous acts. They should see where Mr. Allen was on 1/6 (just saying).
