Beck reporting that the perp claims to have done the shooting in retaliation for racist comments by the reporter. The perp blames the cameraman, who was shot, for reporting the perp to HR.

I wonder if this will get Obama off the golf course...

Probably not.

His twitter account complained that the camera man got him fired and that the news reporter made racist comments. He contacted the EEOC.

I wish I didn’t click either. Incredibly disturbing. My stomach is sick.

The whole context... how cold and calculating he is. How up close and personal it was, and the utter insanity of his perceived slights against him that would lead him to this.

This man is hate incarnate. He feels entitled to do whatever he wants to whomever he wants. It is scary these people exists.

Uggg.

No active pursuit of suspect - Fox

Meaning?? They don’t know where he is or what?

Update: Apparently, the suspect was employed by the station under the name Bryce Williams and actually uploaded a video of himself shooting the cameraman and the news lady. He uploaded it to Facebook and has been tweeting the whole time, but both accounts have now been suspended.

I think the guy is gay.

That’s right.

The male reporter went to HR.

I may be wrong, but there are pictures on his suspended twitter account that suggest he was a gay prostitute.

They shouldn't be giving realtime updates on the pursuit. The perp maybe monitoring.

More likely, she made derogatory remarks regarding both the color and exaggerated size of his “organs”. He drove his whaaaaaabulance right up to the HR-Emergency Room!

I know several women who have commented that, “once you go black, you don’t get white-boys back”.
