What "folks" is he talking about - is he talking about political or the people of other nationalities or is he talking about his own people?

Republican Mark Robinson Declares 'Some Folks Need Killing' In Bizarre Rant

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, the state’s Republican nominee for governor, declared that “some folks need killing” in a bizarre rant at a church Sunday.

“It’s time for somebody to say it. It’s not a matter of vengeance. It’s not a matter of being mean or spiteful. It’s a matter of necessity,” said Robinson, a conspiracy theorist who is endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

“When you have wicked people doing wicked things, torturing and murdering and raping, it’s time to call out those guys in green and go have them handled. Or those boys in blue and have them go handle it,” he said at Lake Church in the town of White Lake.
Robinson, whose speech was first reported by The New Republic, has a history of controversial remarks.

In the past, he’s said that he’d “absolutely want to go back to the America where women couldn’t vote.” He’s also called the 1960s Civil Rights Movement “crap,” shared Islamophobic posts on social media, quoted Adolf Hitler, denied the Holocaust, suggested that transgender women should “find a corner outside somewhere” instead of using their preferred public bathroom, and described school shooting survivors as “spoiled, angry, know it all CHILDREN.”

Robinson said Sunday that “we now find ourselves struggling with people who have evil intent.”
“You know, there’s a time when we used to meet evil on the battlefield and guess what we did to it? We killed it,” said Robinson, who went on to refer to killing members of the Japanese military after the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor.
