Well, this one is a subset of Florida man, this time "Florida Jew"

Florida Jew opens fire, injures 2 visiting Israelis he thought were Palestinians

Brafman overtook their car in Miami Beach, made a U-turn, exited his vehicle and fired 17 shots at them. Local authorities said Brafman didn’t know the victims and there was no prior confrontation between the sides.
...
“It should be noted that, while in custody in our interview room, the defendant spontaneously stated that while he was driving his truck, he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both. The victims and the defendant do not know each other,”

The 27-year-old Miami plumber reportedly fired 17 bullets with a semiautomatic handgun at two men in a car late Saturday night, believing, as he told police when he was caught, that he had "seen two Palestinians and shot and killed them."

Brafman, it turned out, was utterly wrong on all counts. The two men he targeted were not Palestinians. They were in fact Ari Rabi and Yaron Rabi, an Israeli father and son who had landed in Miami for a vacation only hours earlier. And he did not kill them. Both of the men were, luckily, only hit in the arm and shoulder and lightly injured.
In an additional absurd twist, his hapless victims seem to have been as misguided as he was. The Israelis who were attacked by a man believing they were Arabs actually believed that their attackers were Arabs. Ari Rabi apparently posted on social media – alongside photos and videos of their injuries and bullet-riddled car, and his father hyperventilating in panic – that they had been the victims of a "nationalist attack" and in a video, Rabi called it "antisemitic." He concluded his post with the words "Death to Arabs." Rabi's message was taken down after the perpetrator was arrested, but screenshots attributed to his original post remain online.

So... racist attacks fellow racists, who hate the same race he hates. Both racist attacker and the pair of attacked racists assume the other side was the hated race then both sides proudly proclaim their hatred of the other race, no members of which were involved at any point?

Cool?

Florida... ship? The SS United States may soon find new life as Florida Seafloor, after sitting in a Philadelphia pier and rusting for 3 decades. It is though unclear if the ship is able to make the journey to its destination.

I don't know why you say the ship may not be able to make its journey. It doesn't say that in the video you linked or in other articles I have seen about it. It is being towed.
