Reporter, Cameraman Shot While On-Air

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
So for the record: disgruntled former employee. Got canned for unknown reasons. Claimed the camera man went to HR about him, and the girl said something racist to him that he didn't elaborate on.
 
You're no longer safe in America, for example do your job for a local news interview and end up dead.

Its only going to get worse.

Any kind of person shouldn't be able to get their hands on a gun. Is there a backstory to this gunman and victims he gunned down?

He's such a pussy.

Don't watch the video. There's no gore, but it's really just very sad.

Watching someone's last moments knowing they aren't aware that they're about to die isn't enjoyable and doesn't really fulfill that "roadkill" reaction we all have.

He had the gun pointed at them for a while from several feet away and it's honestly pretty excruciating knowing what's about to happen.

It just bummed me out. I'd suggest not trying to find it if you have a soul.

Her boyfriend posted a bunch of pics of them together on facebook and a pretty thoughtful post after he found out she died.

To an extent I'm glad the killer is dead, because for practical purposes we don't have to be concerned with him. But I'd have rather the cops killed him than he get to kill himself.

I feel pretty damn safe.

I dunno...maybe it's a psychological thing.
 
I watched it because I have some kind of stupid morbid, not curiosity because that sounds too innocent, but I dunno. I just feel like I have to watch it.

Of course, ruined my day as you'd expect. Wish I could say I can't imagine the terror as those shots are fired off. Whole thing is just sad as fuck. I have to tell myself people are killed like this every day but it doesn't make it any better.

You feel safe right up until the moment something happens to you, sadly.

Things do happen - absolutely.

It's best to take the appropriate measures to prevent certain outcomes.....and I know we have taken the same precautions - and you had to learn the hard way.

I think the reason it isn't "solved" in the way some would prefer isn't because it isn't brought up. It's because it's brought up and disputed/rejected. And the Supreme Court has put a pretty big limit on anti-gun legislation as well.

Whatever happens, happens. I was always taught not to start trouble, fight, bully, disrespect any kind of person, and I came out a pretty damn good human being.

It starts with the parents, his raised a murderer and a coward, and theirs alot of those.

But I stopped feeling safe around 14, my uncle got shot 7 times at a park over yelling about getting fouled hard, its only a game at a park. Shells were falling on my shoes, until I realized what was happening and started running for cover.

I agree it's a tragedy, especially for the family of the victims.

Never said delay, i said start another debate on gun control. Its a separate topic. Related, but separate.
