20 people were killed and 27 people were injured in the mass shooting that happened in the town of El Paso, Texas.
21-year-old Patrick Crusius, the shooter, open fired with an AK-47 at shoppers who were inside Walmart.
Mr. Johnson is one of the victims of the El Paso Shooting, along with Andre and Jordan Anchondo who died in the same way while they protected their 2-month-old son.
Beto O’Rourke, a former congressman, called out Donald Trump, the President of the United States.
Beto said, “You don’t get mass shootings like these, you don’t torch mosques, or put kids in cages until you have a president who is giving people permission to do that and that is exactly what is happening in the United States of America today.”
In a 2500 word manifesto that was uploaded by Chan, he said that his main targets were Hispanics that were turning Texas, a state in the US, a “Democratic stronghold”.
