I'll bet we learn what kind of clothes he was wearing before we learn his race or religion.

Unless he is a white guy, registered Republican or a professed Christian. Then we will know all about the most minute details of his life before the sun goes down.

Second recruiting shooting on Obama’s watch.

Wonder how much they will tell us about how long this guy was on their radar this time.

Via SkyNews—”Police told the station they suspect the alleged gunman was an employee relieved of duty who opened fire after returning to their vehicle.”

Looks like maybe it’s only 2 people after all. CNN saying some kind of fight between National Guardsmen at a NG unit located next to the Naval facility.

Second recruiting shooting on Obama’s watch.

Headline says 4 shot at Navy recruiting base. Body of the story says 4 shot near Navy recruting base. No indication at all that military personnel were involved.

No, not Amish,

but probably guaranteed that his name contains some variant of “Muhamed” and/or “Hussein”.

If the perp is muslim, it’ll be “common workplace violence.”

If he’s white and especially a TEA Partier, it’ll be “yet another in a series of racist, right-wing terrorism.”
