    In a related story, the Colorado theater shooter was just sentenced to life in prison.

    I will say that the shrieking to take down the video by the media is a bit jarring considering that we have been urged aggressively and repeatedly over the last few months to watch black people being gunned down.

    Yes, if they hadn't hated him, none of this would have happened.

    So this guy has been around for a while, making him 40 or 41. That's odd. Fifteen years ago, he gets demoted in Tallahassee from anchoring to only reporting. Then he supposedly gets let go here in Virginia.

    Curious as to the other shops he has worked at. It's not hard to move up as only a reporter (young and cheap) but it is as only an anchor.

    Can we just save the tax payers a lot of money and staple a flag to his ass and ship him off to ISIS? He'll be tortured and we'll probably get video footage of it as well.

    You're thisclose to victim blaming. Anyone see her flirting with the guy?

    Apples to oranges. Do you need to see the video to figure out who was at fault in this shooting?

    The glaring obvious difference is that members of the media do not like it when the spotlight points in their direction.

    You're ridiculous.

    He asked if it was a hate crime.

    I don't know if it is or not. By all indications, he thought they were racist, not the other way around, which is what would make it a hate crime, dumb dumb.

    Need a few prison rape jokes to class up this joint.
