Original Note:
The mugshot in this post is not of the alleged shooter. There is no evidence that the shooter was a gang member. García espoused neo-nazi and white supremacist ideology online, and did not mention Mexico. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-mauricio-garcia-texas-shooting-mugshots3-235054966595 https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/did-the-allen-texas-outlet-mall-shooting-suspected-shooter-have-a-gang-tattoo-on-his-hand/287-ac67de7a-57a8-4b4a-a37e-b38a04566306 https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2023/05/08/allen-texas-killer-posted-neo-nazi-incel-content-online
