Journalists shot, killed in Virginia during live shot

Just saw that.

 

Yeah, we figured that out. Come on, people! The really stupid posts have tapered off.

 

Alabama TV station rejected Virginia shooter Vester Flanagan over concerns of erratic behavior

"I checked with people I know who worked with him at a previous station and the feedback was not indicative of the kind of employee we would want on our team so we passed," Henning said. "The feedback included things like getting in a fight at a company Christmas party and being difficult to work with.

"That was more than enough to know he wasn't going to be someone we would want working here," he added.

 

Saw a couple Facebook profile pictures changed to this:



Very moving.

 

He had problems in Tallahassee.

Virginia shooter Bryce Williams sued Tallahassee station for discrimination

 

Gawker was ready to go crazy this morning, assuming this was a horrible white man.

 

Because armed psychos are swarming city streets everywhere in response?

 

A BBC News reporter & photog were on the scene of the shooter's capture and police forced them to delete the video they recorded of the takedown.

It's un-news if you can't see it. Police are Big Brother.

 

Which is why you get a nice smartphone and sync your photos and videos to Google, Microsoft etc.

Cops can hijack your phone and/or delete your content but at least it has been uploaded to the cloud.
