A contributor on MSNBC complained this week about Florida Governor Ron
DeSantis demonizing the man who murdered three African American people at a
Dollar General store in Jacksonville as a ?scumbag,? claiming that doing so
pins the atrocity solely on the individual who was responsible, which he
claimed was a bad thing.
Trymaine Lee made the remarks during an appearance on MSNBC?s ?Andrea
Mitchell Reports? after DeSantis addressed the shooting over the weekend.
?This shooting, based on the manifesto that they?ve discovered from the
scumbag that did this, was racially motivated,? DeSantis said, adding: ?We
condemn what happened in the strongest possible terms. We?ve offered support
for Sheriff Waters in the city of Jacksonville, and we send our condolences
to the victims and their families who were the victims of a very cowardly
act.?
Lee said that ?so many folks? had a problem with the language because ?it
places the onus on one individual and the actions of one individual as
opposed to a nationwide sickness of White supremacy in this country and the
violence it fuels.?
?And so long as he is a scumbag or as long as there?s a mental health issue,
you don?t have to engage with the idea that there are, you know, co-
conspirators online, there are co-conspirators who create legislation that
divide, and other people,? Lee continued. ?There are all these other forces
that are contributing to this kind of violence, but as long as it?s the act
of one individual, it?s just a scumbag, then you don?t take the true issue
head on.?
WATCH:
MSNBC attacks DeSantis for calling the Jacksonville shooter a
"scumbag." Seriously. Trymaine Lee: "it places the onus on one
individual and the actions of one individual as opposed to a
nationwide sickness of white supremacy in the country and the
violence it fuels." pic.twitter.com/IZKMGqAgU9
