Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) was booed at the Jacksonville vigil for the three people murdered there on Saturday.

DeSantis is being accused of helping inspire the shooter who opened fire on a Dollar General in a Black neighborhood. The shooter had initially attempted to go to a nearby historically Black Christian university, but he was chased off by security guards.

Using surveillance video and results of the investigation into a racially-motivated killing of three Black Jacksonville residents, Sheriff T.K. Waters walked journalists through the actions of the shooter who killed himself when police SWAT officers arrived.

Identifying the shooter as 21-year-old Ryan Christopher Palmeter, Waters described the weapons used and later added that they were legally purchased.

Going by minute by minute, Waters noted that the young white man was wearing a tactical vest and carrying an AR-15 rifle and a handgun with which he opened fire outside of a Dollar General store before entering and leaving three people dead before committing suicide.

Before showing video, he told reporters, "I will share portions of that footage. Now out of respect for the victims' families, we are going to cut this video short. We would not be showing their loved ones and what happened to them inside the store."

"As you'll see from the video footage, the shooter outfitted himself with a tactical vest which he covered with a short sleeve button-up shirt," he explained. "He created facial covering and donned gloves for his attack. This investigation is ongoing and I will provide you with additional information as this is verified."

Waters later called a manifesto left by Palmeter a "diary of a madman."

Republican presidential candidate Mike Pence suggested the solution to mass shootings in America was to kill guilty people quicker — even though many gunmen end up dead at the scene.

CBS host Nancy Cordes asked Pence about a recent racially motivated shooting in Jacksonville, Florida.
