JUST IN: Parkland shooter was member of White Nationalist organization and participated in drills

It’s being reported now that the Parkland shooter was part of a White Nationalist organization who participated in paramilitary drills:

Here’s more from the AP:

The leader of a white nationalist militia says Florida school shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz was a member of his group and participated in paramilitary drills in Tallahassee.

Jordan Jereb told The Associated Press on Thursday that his group, the Republic of Florida, wants Florida to become its own white ethno-state. He said his group holds “spontaneous random demonstrations” and tries not to participate in the modern world.

Jereb said he didn’t know Cruz personally and that “he acted on his own behalf of what he just did and he’s solely responsible for what he just did.”

He also said he had “trouble with a girl” and he believed the timing of the attack, carried out on Valentine’s Day, wasn’t a coincidence.

Nineteen-year-old Cruz has been charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder in the shooting.

The name of the group is Republic of Florida:

Clearly the White Nationalist group leader wanted to defend his group and try and separate it from evil mass murderer.
