So this black man, who was apparently a disgruntled reporter and ex employee of the same TV station decides to whack 2 fellow journalists who are white, in cold blood.....execution style.
Will our racist-in-chief call this a racist hate crime, or will he use this to make yet another pitch for gun control?
Will he send someone to the funerals, like he sent representatives to the funerals of dead thugs?

If this hadn't been on live TV, it wouldn't be breaking news on msn. I doubt he will send anybody or even acknowledge that it happened. Very sad for those families.

He will not talk about it all just like there is no outrage or protest within the black community concerning black on black murders.  A black 9 year old girl was killed by a stray bullet, not a peep out of anyone. I do not like the lable "hate" crimes, are not all murders horrible?  Isn't it just as horrible to murder a spouse to avoid losing in a divorce as bad as murdering  someone because you don't like the color of their skin or because you are a disgruntled employee- give them all the harshest penalty.

I watched both videos.....the cameraman's video, leading up to the shooting, but also this evil bastards video that he posted after he whacked those three. That's one sick bastard. He shot them like dogs.

I saw the video from the cameramans perspective and was sickened. To wonder what their last thoughts were and the horror of that moment... I can't fathom. And the cameramans fiancé witnessed it from the newsroom.... Our POS POTUS probably won't acknowledge that this even occurred... Especially if it causes a "black life" to look less than stellar.

But now that he has died because he was a selfish thug to shoot innocent people, we surely won't hear a thing about it. 

Nor, will we see a community burned, trashed or torn apart by looters etc..

Too bad that reporter wasn't packing. At least she would have had a chance to draw her weapon and pump his racist ass full of hot lead. We need more armed citizens, not less. Why not? The country's going to hell anyway. It's like the Wild West out there. This is what our rotten narcissistic president wanted all along....chaos and deep divisions.

Obamer will find some excuse to keep the blame off the black. Just a few days ago a LA state trooper---white--- was shot by some goofy white dude. The trooper died. When motorists saw what had happened they stopped, rendered aid to the trooper, got the idiot's gun and hand cuffed him till help could arrive. I would venture to say that some of the people who stopped were black, but if the shooter had been black. someone would have stopped and picked up the shooter and given him a ride.

In Longview TX yesterday a black guy was shot multiple times (just wounded him) because after causing some kind of commotion the police asked him to stop and he pulled out a CO2 pistol. If you do not want to get shot, don't pull out a gun.That is not that hard to understand. Just needed to vent. Yes, all lives matter. And people wonder why relatives of victims go to court proceedings and kill the accused.

While I am venting, don't forget the beautiful young lady that was killed in San Francisco by the Mexican with the gun that had belong to a secret service agent. It had been reported stolen. These agents don't know how to protect their own property? The Mexican had been deported about 6 times. for criminal activity and had just been let out of jail. Just go to the US, they don't care what you do. You can go to jail and never have to work.

After the young cop was murdered in Shreveport LA, I decided I better join the NRA. I am afraid that Obama will issue an executive order that will cause us to have to give up our guns. NRA has a big voice.

So, let me get this straight.

Scenario #1: A white supremacist shoots and kills 9 Blacks in a Charleston church. The politicians go batsh!t crazy and call for the virtual elimination of the Confederate battle flag, statues and graves of Confederate generals, etc..... Obama attends the memorial service, and even leads them in song.

Scenario #2: A disgruntled black man goes berserk and shoots 3 white people. Can we call for the elimination of the "Black Lives Matter" movement? Will our president attend their funeral?

It's was a disgruntled employee taking out his anger/resentment on innocent co-workers.  The frightening reality is that this happens way too often! Some employee gets let go, they blame everyone else; co-workers, boss, wife, etc...  They get so screwed up in the head with resentment/blaming eveyone else...  Then they go on these killing rampages...  senseless!

"...bullying because he was gay and black..." is just a crazy excuse he gave himself to justify the violence he was willing to commit. Look who he says he was inspired by, the teens behind the Columbine shooting? Seriously, they were white. And the Virginia Tech shooter wasn't black either...  All of them a few crayons short in the box. 

This guy decided to exact his revenge on innocent people. PERIOD.  Innocent victims!   

The fact this shooting happened during a live interview, wherein 1,000's watched it unfold on TV is mind boggling. Then you have the millions watching the replay, what does that say about us as a society? I digress... Children may have been watching, people with PTSD, other crazies watching this broadcast, immeasurable harm has been done.  The media is all over this because it happened to one of their own.  I won't justify this crazy persons actions by feeding into his "it's all about me" manifesto. He killed innocent people, there is no rationalization/justification for that act.


Praying for the victims, praying for their families, praying for their friends.  And praying for all the people who watched this horrible scene unfold on live TV...  A sad, sad day...

Just this year I've become convinced a black life only matters if it is cut short by a white person. The rest of the time they don't seem to pay much attention.
In 57 years I've yet to see a riot started because a black person killed another black person.

Yesterday in South Louisiana a black cop was killed by a a black guy. Bet it never makes the national news. Very sad. Yes, all lives matter. That makes three people in law enforcement in the past three weeks that have been killed in Louisiana.

From what I understand, the guy that shot the two TV people had been fired 3 years ago. So he just woke up yesterday and decided to get revenge?

Yes.... you have to understand how cops here behave. When you give them a gun and a badge, well...... People here are getting tired of it. People have a choice when police violate their rights.. They can spend lots of money to go through a corrupt court system, or, they can pick up a weapon and kill the SOB.

Over 16,000 people are murdered in the US every year.  Should the national media cover them all?  I don't think so, it is an unrealistic expectation.  BTW -  The Today Show did cover the murder of a police officer in Louisana.  How sad is this world becoming....

He was a disgruntled ex-employee who obviously had some serious emotional issues going on.  This will continue to be all over the national media because: a.) it was one of the own, b.) the killing was shown live on tv, and c.) he video'd the killing from his vantage point and posted on social media.  It takes someone way screwed up in the head to carry out his plan and then send it out for the world to see.  What a sick, sick person.

So, let me get this straight.

Scenario #1: A white supremacist shoots and kills 9 Blacks in a Charleston church. The politicians go batsh!t crazy and call for the virtual elimination of the Confederate battle flag, statues and graves of Confederate generals, etc..... Obama attends the memorial service, and even leads them in song.

Scenario #2: A disgruntled black man goes berserk and shoots 3 white people. Can we call for the elimination of the "Black Lives Matter" movement? Will our president attend their funeral?

And in both instances the words from the killers are ignored both hated. Roof even admitted the roots of his rage started with the George Zimmerman Trayvon Martin media white on black bias news coverage. Then here comes this guy full of hate always a victim to white privileges as he saw his life. Motivated by Roofs hate he begins to plot his own revenge aka race war......
So here we are once again wanting to ban guns, tighter controls, more regulations......
How about we look at the race baiters bias news coverage that fuels the hate could they possibly be held accountable?

They can spend lots of money to go through a corrupt court system, or, they can pick up a weapon and kill the SOB.

BY far one of the dumbest statements you have ever made.

Maybe you can explain why cops nation-wide are being required to wear body cameras. (hint...It ain't because their angels)

Yesterday in South Louisiana a black cop was killed by a a black guy. Bet it never makes the national news. Very sad. Yes, all lives matter. That makes three people in law enforcement in the past three weeks that have been killed in Louisiana.

To collect evidence and protect ourselves against false accusations. Cameras are great equipment and part of the ever evolving atmosphere of police work. Departments are keeping up with the technology.

You need to go talk to someone who specializes in mental health, Komet. I'm not saying this in a mean way at all. Some of your statements above are a serious red flag.

He spent three years posting inflammatory comments online and working himself up to do unspeakable violence to two innocent people who he blamed for his own shortcomings.

It is so disheartening, all of these mindless killings. I think it all boils down to as a society we are not teaching our children to respect authority. We are not teaching kids personal responsibility for their actions. So many kids are not taught by example how to deal with their own anger and disappointments in life. Its always someone else's fault when they have problems or things dont go their way someone has to "pay" - they take revenge.
We have gotten away from morals and values. Every person that does these kind of things should be hung the next day at the courthouse. No air lifts to the hospital/nothing. They should be killed. Send a message to these crazies and punks that have no respect for other people.

I have to admit that stopping to help a motorist who appears to be having problems is getting out of line.

Trying to stop a husband from stabbing his wife and her two lady friends is way out of line. One of those ladies died along with the cop. She was out of line too. She should not have been interfering in the wife abuse, certainly none of her business. She paid a high price.

No, I never said I wanted you to post videos. So, don't know where that came from. You know, you could find just as many videos of cops doing good... If you were so inclined. You seem hell bent on ignoring anything positive and concentrating only on negatives. Just sayin.

I respect Most LE.  But, for the last several years my community has been torn apart due to a deputy murdering his wife.  Several covered for him.  The officers who stood up and tried to collect evidence (do the right thing) have been fired by a corrupt sheriff.
There have been several outside investigations now, law suits are happening, officers and one investigator who will continue to fight for their reputations.  The amount of money this has cost is insane.  Not to mention the families of those involved having to deal with the fall out.
  
A neighboring community had a deputy who got busted for some really awful child abuse.  Sadly his Sheriff also covered for him for a couple of years.  The person who initially reported was basically told to shut up or else.   

Please do ALL LE a favor and admit there are problems.  When good cops call out the trash wearing a badge they will have a ton of support from the citizens.

The post referenced two shootings in Louisiana. Neither of which involved any wrong doing on the part of the officers involved. It's disrespectful to enter that conversation to rant about something unrelated. Both were good cops doing their jobs.

"........ or, they can pick up a weapon and kill the SOB."

My question to you, Komet, is, do you own a weapon? Your remark, and other comments you've made, is why I wouldn't be surprised to learn that you've snapped one day, just like Flannagan.

 Regarding the shooting, I watched both videos and they will haunt me for a long time.  It's clear he waits until the camera pans back to a full shot of the anchor before he fires. Just puts a huge pit in my stomach that a person can actually do something like that.  To see it from his perspective is almost impossible to watch.  Cutting a 24 and 27 year old's lives short, when they are unaware and simply enjoying a quiet morning doing their job...words can't express what kind of evil that is.

Of course there are bad apples in every profession, but some of these comments, wow, very dark.

streakysox - 2015-08-27 2:38 PM Yesterday in South Louisiana a black cop was killed by a a black guy. Bet it never makes the national news. Very sad. Yes, all lives matter. That makes three people in law enforcement in the past three weeks that have been killed in Louisiana. From what I understand, the guy that shot the two TV people had been fired 3 years ago. So he just woke up yesterday and decided to get revenge?
Yes.... you have to understand how cops here behave. When you give them a gun and a badge, well...... People here are getting tired of it. People have a choice when police violate their rights.. They can spend lots of money to go through a corrupt court system, or, they can pick up a weapon and kill the SOB.
BY far one of the dumbest statements you have ever made.
Maybe you can explain why cops nation-wide are being required to wear body cameras. (hint...It ain't because their angels)
To collect evidence and protect ourselves against false accusations. Cameras are great equipment and part of the ever evolving atmosphere of police work. Departments are keeping up with the technology. You need to go talk to someone who specializes in mental health, Komet. I'm not saying this in a mean way at all. Some of your statements above are a serious red flag.
So... Instead of refusing to acknowledge that some cops get out of line, you call me mentally unstable?
You are deflecting. It's a defense mechanism. Recognize your statements for what they are. It is NOT NORMAL nor is it an indication of good emotional health to say what you did about "pick up a weapon and kill" because you feel insulted or slighted by the criminal justice system or whoever/whatever else you're mad at. Red Flag!
I'm not deflecting anything..(unlike you) You refuse to acknowledge that LEOs get out of line. What are the taxpaying people supposed to do when YOU (the police) overstep your bounds? I understand some of the flack cops deal with. I applaud the job they do. But if you want me to post videos of cops abusing the authority granted them with the badge and the gun, I'll be happy to do so!!
I have to admit that stopping to help a motorist who appears to be having problems is getting out of line. Trying to stop a husband from stabbing his wife and her two lady friends is way out of line. One of those ladies died along with the cop. She was out of line too. She should not have been interfering in the wife abuse, certainly none of her business. She paid a high price.
I respect Most LE.  But, for the last several years my community has been torn apart due to a deputy murdering his wife.  Several covered for him.  The officers who stood up and tried to collect evidence (do the right thing) have been fired by a corrupt sheriff.

There have been several outside investigations now, law suits are happening, officers and one investigator who will continue to fight for their reputations.  The amount of money this has cost is insane.  Not to mention the families of those involved having to deal with the fall out.

  

A neighboring community had a deputy who got busted for some really awful child abuse.  Sadly his Sheriff also covered for him for a couple of years.  The person who initially reported was basically told to shut up or else.   



Please do ALL LE a favor and admit there are problems.  When good cops call out the trash wearing a badge they will have a ton of support from the citizens.

The post referenced two shootings in Louisiana. Neither of which involved any wrong doing on the part of the officers involved. It's disrespectful to enter that conversation to rant about something unrelated. Both were good cops doing their jobs.

Wow Nita.  Did you actually read what I replyed to?

lucky2 - 2015-08-27 9:26 PM It is so disheartening, all of these mindless killings. I think it all boils down to as a society we are not teaching our children to respect authority. We are not teaching kids personal responsibility for their actions. So many kids are not taught by example how to deal with their own anger and disappointments in life. Its always someone else's fault when they have problems or things dont go their way someone has to "pay" - they take revenge. We have gotten away from morals and values. Every person that does these kind of things should be hung the next day at the courthouse. No air lifts to the hospital/nothing. They should be killed. Send a message to these crazies and punks that have no respect for other people.

What about mental health issues?  Do you think this situation was about morals and values learned as a child or mental health issues in the adult?  The shooter in this instance was 41, had documentated anger issues, was extremely resentful (jealous?) and planned this out = taking his frustration out on others.  Somehow, I don't think the commandment "thou shall not kill" came to his mind...

I did. I went back and re-read the post and your reply. My point it, these two cops WERE NOT BAD. When the discussion is about the tragic death of two good officers, it ain't right to jump in with your bad cop stories. It looks like you're trying to say they might have been bad, and I know that's not the case!

Unless you read streakysox's post literally... but, it was meant to be like a "yeah, right" reply to Komet.

We live 45 minutes north of WDBJ7 and watch it as our local morning news everday. We feel like these people are our family since they "come" into our homes every a.m. We do get to see the different reporters doing live broadcasts from time to time.

I just happened to be coming back into our house from walking dogs Weds. a.m. and saw the shooting live. My husband and I are still trying to absorb what happened.

It was a mentally ill man who reached a breaking point. Read his employment history...........everywhere he worked, he created tension and problems. Just like with the other shooters across the U.S., red flags were there but were never dealt with. He was fired so he could go on and become someone else's problem. Of course he was using the I am black and everyone else is racist, but that really was not the problem.

I just can't understand WHY he couldn't just go out and shoot himself instead of taking the lives of Alison and Adam with him. At least he is dead now. I would hate to think that the taxpayers were going to have to support him for the rest of his life in prison.

For those against the death penalty.................concerning the Holmes trial................he may be in prison but he has it made. Three meals a day, clean clothes, clean place to live, free medical, dental and mental care, T.V. things to read, a gym...........FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE. It will cost the taxpayers at least $30,000/year to support him. Where is the justice in this??

Are the "last days" here?? Sure seems that way. Maybe it's because as citizens we are expected to accept people for who and what they are and have becomed complacent in expecting that a weird/strange person is really just o.k., if they were a threat then someone else would find a way the help them......... I know that is not wording my thoughts exactly right...........I'm still rattled/upset by this week here in Virginia.

  Apparently not to all. If you wear a law enforcement uniform your life doesn't matter to some. Yet they are expected to coddle those out killing, looting, driving drunk and on and on. To be shot in the back because you have on a uniform is maddness. I've read on here people's thoughts on Marshall Law. You may not be far off the mark. When people loose respect for the peacekeepers we are on the backside of the slippery slope.
