Florida school shooting suspect was white nationalist militia member, leader says
Students and neighbors describe the suspect in the deadly rampage at a Florida high school as a troubled teenager who threatened and harassed peers, talked about killing animals, posed with guns in disturbing photos on social media, and bragged about target practice in his backyard with a pellet gun.

Nikolas Cruz, 19, had his first court appearance Thursday afternoon and appeared in shackles and an orange jumpsuit. He is being held without bond.

Cruz was also a member of a white nationalist militia and participated in paramilitary drills in Tallahassee, the leader of the group said on Thursday.

Jordan Jereb told The Associated Press that his group wants Florida to become its own white ethno-state. The group holds "spontaneous random demonstrations" and tries not to participate in the modern world.

a white nationalist group that seems proud that one that they trained pulled this school shooting off. If they don't want to participate in the modern world - send them to Gitmo.

I'm saying something about this group here - what are the authorities going to do about it?
