Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein speaks to community members and congregants about the shooting at the Chabad of Poway Synagogue during a candlelight vigil for the victim of the Chabad of Poway Synagogue at Valle Verde Park on April 28, 2019 in Poway, California. - A rabbi who carried on preaching despite being wounded in the latest deadly shooting at a US synagogue said on April 28 that Jews would not be intimidated by the"senseless hate" of anti-semitism.
Police identified the shooter as John Earnest, 19, who had posted angry anti-Jewish remarks online just before the shooting and claimed he was behind the arson of a mosque in the area weeks earlier. Ahead of the funeral for Kaye, the synagogue’s rabbi said authorities had to do more to protect places of worship.
“And I look at him. He had sunglasses on, I couldn’t see his eyes, I couldn’t see his soul. I froze.” It was then that the shooter’s assault weapon jammed, creating an opening for others to jump in, said Goldstein. Trump at the time said that “there were very fine people on both sides” of the protest which was against the removal of a Confederate-era statue.
