The man named as a person of interest in the Brooklyn subway shooting talked about violence and mass shootings in multiple rambling videos posted on YouTube.
The NYPD named James a person of interest because they believe he rented a U-Haul van whose keys were found at the scene of the shooting. Police are currently investigating whether he has any connection to the shooting and have not named him as a suspect.
After talking about community violence, James said,"We need to see more mass shootings. Yeah. ... We need to see more, there has to be more mass shootings to make a n***er understand. ... It's not about the shooter; it's about the environment in which he is, he has to exist." That speech was a common theme throughout James' videos, in which he repeatedly espoused hatred toward African Americans.
