Red House was disbanded a few years ago. I think someone bought the property.

IIRC they were black Muslims

Thanks.

Watching a “live broadcast” of an execution is disturbing and leaves everyone wondering and speculating. I’ll side with you and your speculation, for now.

The facts will out.

“The blond reporter in the video was killed?”

Yep and the cameraman. No report on the older lady whom was being interviewed.

Is that the shooter?

Yes. In a previous thread that they locked, I saw a pic of the shooter within the youtube video window that gave you the exact time.

Yep it looks like the cameraman swung around and got the guy on camera as he was being shot.

Dressed in black with a beard.

Very poor quality pic, but does that look like a darker skinned man with a jihadi half beard and automatic pistol in hand?

Any possible reason for this heinous murder, other than jihad or racism?..........................

I mentioned on the other thread that the lady being interviewed spoke to our Kiwanis club a few weeks ago.

I heard the CoC rep was shot in the back but still alive; perhaps she played dead? It doesn’t look like anyone is around that place at 6:45 in the morning.

Sounded like a semi-auto to me.

All I see is someone in a mask, personally.

And that’s def. a white male. This is a love triangle/angry ex situation, I’d bet.

Garden variety nutjob is the likeliest scenario. Shootings tied to mental illness are rampant these days. Probably living with parents, bipolar, off the meds.

Eight shots, if I counted accurately.
