Numerous racial agitators said online this week that the black suspect in the murder of Austin Metcalf, who was white, was justified, arguing largely on racial grounds.

Metcalf, 17, was stabbed to death on Wednesday at a high school track meet after the victim reportedly told Karmelo Anthony, 17, that he was sitting in the wrong seat. Anthony has been charged with murder and, according to an arrest warrant, told police of the fatal stabbing, “I did it.”

Racial activist Tariq Nasheed said without evidence that Metcalf is “a suspected white supremacist,” and Anthony “defended himself” after he was asked to “give up his seat,” referencing the Jim Crow era.

“A suspected white supremacist named Austin Metcalf (pictured with his twin) allegedly demanded honor student Karmelo Anthony give up his seat—like it was the Jim Crow era,” Nasheed posted. “Karmelo defended himself from the alleged threat. The Daniel Penny case set this precedent.”

Another online post, which has racked up 6.5 million views, called Metcalf “the aggressor” for asking Anthony to move.

“Whenever white supremacists immediately flood our mentions before the full story is even out, you know something’s up,” the post says. “It turns out, Austin Metcalf was the aggressor, and the Black kid, Karmelo Anthony, was defending himself.”

Moreover, according to Oli London, activists have set up a GoFundMe account for the suspected murderer, which has brought in thousands of dollars.

“BLM and left wing activists launch a GoFundMe for MURDERER Karmelo Anthony saying he wasn’t ‘looking for trouble.’ $8,550 has so far been raised out of a $50,000 target to support the killer who stabbed to death 17 year old high school student Austin Metcalf,” London reported. “Karmelo confessed to police after his arrest that he carried out the stabbing. The fundraiser described Karmelo as a ‘respectful well-mannered young man.’”

The family says Metcalf had a 4.0 GPA and was MVP of Frisco ISD’s Memorial High School football team. The teen did not know Anthony and died in his twin brother’s arms.

“They were twins, identical twins, and his brother was holding on to him, trying to make it stop bleeding, and he died in his brother’s arms,” Jeff Metcalf, the victim’s father, said. “I rushed up there and I saw him on the gurney and I could tell — they said he wasn’t breathing. I could see all the blood, and I saw where the wound was, and I was very concerned, so I had to find his brother, and we rushed to the hospital. And we prayed, and it’s God’s plan. I don’t understand it, but they weren’t able to save him. This is murder.”
