My guess is that if the engineer was black, the media wouldn't mention it.

Now if he was a white conservative Christian, we would be hearing that every hour on the hour.

Frankly, I don't care about his private life unless it had some bearing on his state of mind — i.e. was he suicidal? But nothing has really been proven yet and I wish the media would just shaddup until and unless all the facts are known.

You naively believe that all the facts will be made known. We are in a different milieu, where facts are filtered and crafted to fit a narrative. That's a horrific charge to make, but it's completely true.
