I agree. Nothing wrong with discussing gun control but it shouldn't be thrust into this thread. Start a separate thread for another discussion.



Clearly pre meditated murder...  
Torrag : 8/26/2015 11:17 am : link
If he knew the victim and is changing vehicles to evade pursuit. Hopefully he'll give the police reason to end his days when they chase him down. Fucking coward that he is.
Jesus  
illmatic : 8/26/2015 11:17 am : link
He recorded him walking up to them with the gun and him shooting at her. They didn't even notice him until he fired.

This is fucking awful  
UConn4523 : 8/26/2015 11:19 am : link
words don't describe what should happen to this guy
He's saying on Twitter that the girl he killed made racist comments...  
Britt in VA : 8/26/2015 11:21 am : link
and that the camera man "went to HR" on him after working with him one time.
Seruously....someone on the Sabre posted a link to his twitter  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2015 11:21 am : link
Right after his alias was released....clicked on it and literally with 20 seconds his posts started to appear. Surreal
They just took down his Twitter page  
figgy2989 : 8/26/2015 11:21 am : link
That was some real awful shit
Holy Sh!t

There were tweets below the video...  
Ryan : 8/26/2015 11:25 am : link
...where he complained that the photographer reported him to HR for something and the reporter had made racist comments to him. So that appears to be the fuel for this.

No words for that video. Craziest thing I've ever seen on this site by a mile.
reading his Twitter  
PaulBlakeTSU : 8/26/2015 11:25 am : link
and seeing the videos were horrifying
What were his comments on twitter?  
Mike in Long Beach : 8/26/2015 11:25 am : link
I only saw the video.
Ah  
Mike in Long Beach : 8/26/2015 11:26 am : link
Thanks Ryan.
what was the guy  
MookGiants : 8/26/2015 11:26 am : link
posting on twitter? Any screen grabs? Fucked up, wow. I missed it before it got taken down

Yeah! Let's also ban murder and robbery and drugs! Just think how wonderful everything will be!!!
That was a weird video  
RB^2 : 8/26/2015 11:28 am : link
How did the reporter or interviewee not notice a guy pointing a gun at them 10 feet away?
Take the gun discussion elsewhere ...  
Torrag : 8/26/2015 11:28 am : link
I'm trying to follow a manhunt unfolding live.
Mook  
UConn4523 : 8/26/2015 11:28 am : link
he took a POV style video of him a la Goldeneye going up to the reporter, pointing the gun, waiting, and then shooting 5 or 6 shots while she was trying to run away.
RB2 have you ever been on live TV?  
Torrag : 8/26/2015 11:30 am : link
You're totally focused on the camera etc so you come across well. Vanity can kill you after all. The only one with a realistic chance to spot this coward was the cameraman and unfortunately his back was turned to him.
that video felt surreal  
RD in CT : 8/26/2015 11:30 am : link
it was like a first person video game, that was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen. I feel like often I'm desensitized to violence given the nature of what's all over the news and internet, but wow.

RIP to these people and hopefully they catch this bastard ASAP

Another reporter on twitter said that, when you're on camera, the camera is the only thing you're focusing on and it's not unusual not to notice things happening in the background.

I'm still just in shock at that twitter feed and video. Unbelievable.

they have tunnel vision
Thankfully, you don't see anyone  
illmatic : 8/26/2015 11:31 am : link
actually getting shot. I think he dropped the phone right after he started firing so you just hear the gunshots and the screaming. That would've been awful if people were able to see all of that.

I would assume because as a reporter and interviewee on live television they don't want to look away from the camera at all.
Anyone who deliberately watches that video  
RobCarpenter : 8/26/2015 11:31 am : link
Is watching a snuff film. I refuse to watch it, I don't need to watch someone die.
Really wish I didn't see that video...  
AJ23 : 8/26/2015 11:31 am : link
They didn't notice him because they were professionals until the end. You're trained to block observers out as a TV reporter.

Fuck this guy. I hope that when they catch him, they put several clips into him.
screen capture of his twitter before the plug was pulled  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2015 11:31 am : link
and illmatic  
AJ23 : 8/26/2015 11:33 am : link
The second video he posted showed him shooting the reporter and doesn't stop until he's fired off at least three rounds and she's turned her back and started running away.
I'm not normally bloodthirsty...  
Torrag : 8/26/2015 11:33 am : link
...but in this case I don't want them to catch him. I want them to put him down. An eye for an eye is sometimes justice.

Yep, I don't need to see something like that. Hope they catch this monster ASAP.
I dont have much opinion in the gun control debate  
Deej : 8/26/2015 11:34 am : link
other than being against an outright ban on gun ownership.

But it's always funny to see how the pro-gun side's blood boils at even having to see pro-control statements. The fucking thread police over here, telling people where they can and cant talk about gun control.
They probably didn't even think to look at him  
Mike in Long Beach : 8/26/2015 11:36 am : link
He obviously worked for the station so he was just there. He could've been on his phone for all they knew. They were live on the air.
now supposedly on 66 eastbound in a silver Chevy Sonic?  
Greg from LI : 8/26/2015 11:36 am : link
Nowhere near 64
Just saw the vid on youtube  
MarshallOnMontana : 8/26/2015 11:36 am : link
I only watched it once, so maybe I missed something, but it's not quite as graphic as I was expecting from some of the descriptions (not here but elsewhere). It's certainly chilling. Especially the way he just lingers before the shot. You don't actually see anyone die though (at least it didn't appear that way to me). Vid goes black when the female reporter starts running and you can hear the shooter running after her and breathing heavily. Then it ends

This guy is going to go out in a blaze in all likelihood, doubt he gets taken alive. What a sicko
ABC statement just released

Same thing the Virginia Tech shooter did

People are referring to a different video. He posted a video from HIS perspective on his twitter account (which has since been suspended).
instead  
PaulBlakeTSU : 8/26/2015 11:38 am : link
of Facebook and Twitter deleting his pages, they should keep them live but invisible to the public so that they can use his location services to track him as he keeps posting.

Though, I suppose that LE can use the gps in his phone anyway.

I think that's what he's referring to. I saw that one and it looks like she was shot in the arm and running. It looks like it cuts off prior to subsequent shots going off.

Still terrifying.

MarshallOnMontana : 8/26/2015 11:38 am : link
I saw that video. That's the one I'm talking about. Maybe I watched a version that the uploader edited to avoid the graphic parts
