Reporters innocent comments deemed racist by on-air killer
By Marisa Schultz and Frank Rosario
ROANOKE, Va. The words are a part of everyday conversation swinging by an address and going out in the field. But in the twisted mind of Virginia gunman Vester Lee Flanagan II, they were pure racism and saying them became a death sentence for Alison Parker. The 24-year-old white reporter, who was murdered on live TV along with her cameraman, used the phrases as an intern at WDBJ TV in Roanoke in 2012, according to an internal complaint filed by Flanagan, who was black. One was something about swinging by some place; the other was out in the field, said the Jan. 21 report by assistant news director Greg Baldwin, which refers to Parker as Alison Bailey (her middle name). Parker was never disciplined over the remarks, but Flanagan never forgot them. Hours after gunning her and Adam Ward down during their broadcast Wednesday, Flanagan revealed in tweets that the comments were still fresh on his mind. Alison made racist comments, Flanagan posted as he was on the run from cops. They hired her after that?? he wrote.

Why is “swinging” considered racist? I guess in his mind “swinging” is something monkeys do and therefore whitey is comparing blacks to monkeys?
I need more coffee.
“But I bet anything liberals would be AGAINST a psyche evaluation.”
I disagree. Liberals would be all for psyche evals. I don’t want some liberal giving me a psychiatric evaluation. They already want to take guns away from all veterans. They must have PSTD. They want to take them away from seniors too. They must be senile. They will then come for everyone in the Tea Party. Why that’s a racist party. Then they come after the pro-life people. They already said those with anti-abortion stickers on their cars may be terrorists.
No I don’t want some mentally deranged liberal giving me a psyche test. We already have laws on the book that a psychiatric patient can not own a gun. They just need to enforce it.
The latest killer was not a felon, was not crazy, was an Obama supporter and homosexual prostitute. Those are not covered. But it’s hard to make a law that covers pure evil.
Get over it. I am white and my family picked cotton you black bitches"
Please go away.
Are you certain this is what you are espousing? In order to exercise a Constitutionally protected right, you suggest every citizen (and now every illegal alien) undergo a psych eval?
Not on my watch.
“Liberals would be all for psyche evals. I dont want some liberal giving me a psychiatric evaluation.”
Spot on. In the Soviet Union there were `psychiatric hospitals’ for those crazy enough to oppose communism.
Opposing the Obama agenda is already evidence of mental derangement. Just ask Valerie Jarrett.
He was just looking for an excuse to file a suit. He knew he was toast and needed a free ride.
Seen it way too many times. I worked with a guy like this when I was with a Fortune 70 corp. He knew he was on his way out and was documenting. He got a ridiculously good offer from another Fortune 70 and took it. They cut him a week later for lying on his resume. I’ve always thought there was collusion. Since he resigned, he couldn’t sue.
He ran up the company credit card before leaving and management had to pay it off. Too funny.
This is a combination of nucking futs and purposeful agitation by Obama and his minions.
Nights are what color?
Nights are BLACK.
BZZZZZT. Racist.
You’re right. Valerie and Obama have already taken to calling us “the crazies”. Even the liberal Republicans act as if the conservatives are the old uncle Joes who shouldn’t be allowed out of the basement.
I think their next step is the psychiatric evaluation. Alison’s father is really getting on my nerves. How about grieving for your daughter. He is all over the media pushing his gun agenda instead. He’s background is acting and there is an Andy Parker that ran as a Democratic delegate. It is probably the same one.
He keeps pushing for gun control without naming any specifics. The latest killer doesn’t have a criminal or mental history. Unless they decide to make it illegal for all evil gay male prostitutes and unemployed reporters to own a gun, he would still have the right to own a gun. Our mental state is the only thing left for them to regulate on the right to bear arms. It won’t take long for the evil ones in charge to stack the deck against conservatives. We are already on the admin’s terrorist watch list.
Hillary just called all Republicans terrorists.
The danger of psyche tests is that they would be easily manipulated to deny rights to sane people.
Because the constitution does not say I have to be evaluated to exercise my right.
Just like when Sarah Palin was blamed for murders because she had an old ad that used the term “in the crosshairs.” The liberal media thinks exactly like this killer. They’re the self-appointed speech police and will mete out punishment for violating their rules as they see fit.
That is EXACTLY what the Govt would LOVE to be able to do, all of a sudden, no one is sane enough to own or carry. No one, except Govt ‘agencies’.
Being white is racist.
Libs would call a psychological evaluation a form of “profiling”.
I believe they lick their chops every time one of these tragedies happens.
One of my fondest memories is....I stayed home from school because I was sick and since there was no one else to watch me I went to work with my grandparents. When I got tired of helping my grandmother and grandfather pick cotton I got on his sack and rode on it while he worked.
Most black people alive today have got nothing on me so......
A neighbor said Flanagan was often rude and arrogant and that he would throw cat feces at apartment doors during disputes.
DANG!
