White supremacist couple stab Black Navy vet to death at california gas station

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10638019/White-supremacist-swastika-tattoo-girlfriend-charged-murder-hate-crime.html

White supremacist with swastika and 'white pride' tattoos and his girlfriend are charged with murder as a hate crime for 'shooting and stabbing to death' black Navy veteran, 30, at a California gas station
Christina Garner, 42, and Jeremy Jones, 49, had already been charged with murder after last week's shooting which left 30-year-old Justin Peoples dead
San Joaquin County DA Tori Verber Salazar said she believes her office collected enough evidence to charge Garner and Jones with murder as a hate crime
Peoples, a father-of-two, had pulled up at a Chevron gas station in Tracy, a town about 60 miles from San Francisco, around 9pm on March 15
Garner and Jones allegedly shot and stabbed Peoples multiple times, before fleeing the scene, authorities said
Peoples was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he died hours later, and the couple was arrested the following day

Reading the story, it doesn’t seem like there was any kind of argument or confrontation, he just showed up and they killed him.

These people are fucked up. They should be hanged.

The third letter looks like an "A" with the left leg thinner than the right.
But, from the mug shot, I don't see an "N" at all.

18. Nazis were Christians
Tue Mar 22, 2022, 08:13 AM

And Neo Nazi's world view is one of a White Christian ruling class.

For some reason, in the US, Christianity's role in Nazism in Germany prior to and during WWII is downplayed. But it was central to their message. Hitler invoked Christ in nearly every speech he ever gave. Christian symbolism was a key part of the cult of personality. And perhaps the most dangerous piece of propaganda used to justify the the Holocaust was biblical accounts of Jesus's death.

Every time you bring this up, someone will talk about the occult and how some top Nazi commanders were into weird occult stuff, while that may be true in some cases, Christianity was the primary religion of Nazism and their message. They wore belt buckles with "god is with us" stamped on them, the award for bravery in battle was a cross. Their propaganda is just filled with references to Jesus. There can be no mistake that Nazism and Christianity were paired in Germany for maximum effect. The crimes of the Nazis would not have been possible without Christianity.

"Jones had recently got a tattoo with Garner's name, CHRISTINA, across his neck, and commented he got inked because he wanted to show his love for her." from the article linked in the OP. It does look liked CHRISTIAN, though.

That Aryan thing never seems to die even though most believers are dead, thank goodness. Assuming these two are found guilty, they - including their racist tattoos - should die in prison.

RIP Justin Peoples and thank you for your service to America. I hope your death will be an inspiration to a number of people to fight harder against racism.

a third person charged as an accessory.

Justin Peoples was a youth pastor with a local church and worked two jobs delivering auto parts and packages, Maurice Peoples said. He had two sons, ages 11 and 2, the father said. Maurice Peoples said that his son had a "big kind heart" and a big smile.

Spend enough time towards the Central Valley, and you start being able to spot the type.

There's a certain breed of white supremacist in rural pockets that loves them the crank. Mix hate, volatility, and the likelihood their co-dependence drove them both crazier than shit house rats.

Poor guy. Those two were like a sudden tornado blowing through his life and the lives of those around him.
