WTF is going on with people!!! Crazy!

god damn that's chilling.

Suspect live tweeted video of him shooting. Pretty disturbing. He tweeted it under his "TV" name Bryce Williams.

Scary. That video.

According to twitter reports now, he has shot himself. Oh and he was black for what it's worth!

Thanks for pointing that out...

The shooter is a coward.

I did that "tongue and cheek" only because if rolls were reversed it would be HUGE news.

Good point, I hadn't seen this shooting reported anywhere....

From the video his only targets was the TV Reporter first and Camera man second, employees that he had worked with.
The weapon was a 9mm and after the camera dropped you can hear additional shots fired, I would assume the shooter fired more shots at the victims at a closer ranger. The shots sound like they are fired in a barrel, this is becasue the weapon was fired in a downward position and the sound echoed off the floor. This is my opion based off my experience of weapons. I was not there and can only assume this is what happen. This was a planned and directed shooting by a crazy, distraut individual with a hate about something or someone.

Let not go into that knee jerk reaction mode of racist, hate crime and radical activites ... one crazy fucked up individual

Black lives matter.

Not calling this a "race" related crime belly, however if it was a "white" disgruntled employee who fired on two black reporters, all hell would be breaking loose (again).

Belly is the voice of reason in this thread.

No way belly typed that response. Lol. At least not the first paragraph with no spelling errors

This link is nuts. It shows the video he took. He literally stands 2 feet away from the reporter, gun pointed, for 20 seconds. Nobody notices. Then he opens fire. Guarantee this video will be removed anytime so view it now. Such a tragedy and of course, reports already coming out that he was discriminated against and claimed the 2 victims were racists, etc.

And the GM of the station came right out and said that the shooter was full of it. No basis to his claims. He said Flanigan liked to pick fights and play the victim. That's why they let him go and he had to be escorted away from the station by police.

Yea, Hillary already blamed it on guns too. Politicians on both sides waste no time trying to capitalize off of other people's misfortunes. Btw the dead scum bag had to have the cops called on him when he was fired.

Why is any situation involving guns the only time the talk immediately goes to symptoms as opposed to root cause?

Even the her dad's statement, which was understandably a difficult thing to even release, hinted that they were blaming guns. Something along the lines of "another victim of someone with a weapon."

Never does it say another victim of a useless piece of shit who probably was taking anti-depressants and decided to take the most cowardly way out. That's pretty much what I'd say if it was my family member. What was used to kill them is irrelevant...

Friggin' sucks. One of my good college buddies is a coworker of the victims. Waking up to this stuff daily is tiring.

So, taking down the confederate flag was moot.

Simply horrifying. You just wish thatvpoor girl would have been able to see him when he put the gun down and waited until the camera man panned back and maybe had a fighting chance...

You strike me as the sort of person who gleefully jacks off whenever something tragic happens because it gives you an opening to awkwardly shoehorn in some stupid political point that no one gives a fuck about. GFY.
