There are least eight victims, four men and and four women, San Diego police Chief Shelley Zimmerman said.

Police said they killed a suspected shooter ...

Does this mean the person they killed may not have been a "shooter," while the actual "shooter" is still at large?

And he couldn’t have been a white guy. If he was, the media would already be screaming aboutneo-Nazi racist blah blah blah.

"...suspected shooter..."


He was probably the alleged suspected shooter, according to unofficial reports, from unnamed sources, speaking off-record.

“....neo-Nazi racist....” Oh, you mean Trump supporter? From the photos near the incident, I’m thinkin’ there ain’t a lot of support for Trump. I could be wrong of course.

Well, maybe the article's been updated since it was first posted here, but the shooter was actually white.

It’s not clear whether Selis, who was a white man, knew any of the victims, police said. Detectives have not determined the shooting’s motive.

Peter Selis. 47 year old white male with 3 kids obviously separated or divorced since he lived in the apartment complex. Went down to the pool where there was a 50th birthday celebration going on. A party goer invited him to the affair and Selis shot him. With a beer in one hand and a pistol in the other, Selis continued shooting people until the mag ran dry. Worked at a Ford dealership as a mechanic making $75K per annum. Probably had hefty child support payments and decided this was the day to wrap up the mess realizing he would not be celebrating his 50th at the apartment pool or anywhere else.

I read last night that after he shot up the place, he sat down in a lounge chair, cracked open a beer and waited for the cops to come. Then decided to shoot at them when they arrived. Something snapped there.

I'm guessing that noise had something to do with it.

A little more information here:

The shooter seemed at ease, he said, while bloodied victims struggled.

“He had his beer in one hand and his gun in the other,” said the witness, who provided only his first name, John, to the news station. “There were two victims lying on the ground, one trying to crawl toward the other one to help.”

...

Amberjot Riat, 22, and Kaela Wong, 20, were in the jacuzzi at the apartment complex when the gunfire erupted. Riat said they stayed in the water in hopes of avoiding the shooter’s attention.

After leaving the jacuzzi, they said they moved to a wall and heard the gunman speak to young women who were attending to a wounded friend. “You can either leave or you can stay here and die,” he reportedly told them.

About 30 people were around the pool, and all the victims they could see were black, they said.

[T]he police chief, said it was unclear what motivated the shooting.

Sounds like suicide by cop, but it wasn’t necessary to actually shoot anybody.

All of a sudden, the race of the shooter and the victims is important.

Don’t care about the race of anyone involved, the shooter was an evil piece of zhit.
