In those 2-3 minute live segments, you have to be pretty focused. Even in a studio, where lights are more of an issue, you probably aren't going to notice movements that aren't on set.

Ok, I thought that might be what he was getting at. But I'm not that up to date on a lot of the newer celebrities so I wasn't sure.

You haven't read the thread then, because that shite is littered throughout already.

For those not following closely:
-shooter was black
-posted about how the white girl was racist
-posted video of him executing them with about a minute of pre-meditation as he aimed his gun.

When I first saw his picture I thought this guy looks like the black version of SFP.

I'm not in the business, but I always thought live shoots had a 3rd person like a producer on the scene with them. I guess I don't know what I'm talking about though.

there is a lot of psychological research about these scenarios.
liberal, SJW, pussy mumbo jumbo right there. My head is always on a swivel looking for potential shooters.
I was at my desk working last week, a nefarious looking character walked up...ninja kicked him. When he came to I realized he was a client, but the moral of the story is everyone lived because I was alert and prepared for a mass shooter.

no, i didn't try at all. thanks, that's what i was looking for.
also some more good news to report. just got back from lunch and saw a table of white and black men breaking bread, laughing and talking, living in harmony. my worldview is restored.

One of those tweets mentioned Bridgewater Plaza. First time I have seen that mentioned so went and looked on google maps. Place appears to be a good bit outside of Roanoke and isolated. Looks like the guy had/waited for the perfect place to do this.

Thanks, great to see this. This is a tragedy and if you're a journalist this put a whole new perspective on your job.

Vester Flanagan (aka Bryce Williams)
"Vester was an unhappy man," WDBJ general manager Jeff Marks said on the air, just before noon on Wednesday.
"He quickly gathered a reputation as someone who was difficult to work with.... He was looking for people to say things he could take offense to," Marks added.
After numerous incidents of anger, WDBJ dismissed him. "He did not take that well. We had to call the police to escort him from the building," Marks said.
After his dismissal, Flanagan filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, but the EEOC found no evidence of anything unbecoming and "dismissed the claim out of hand."
Not mental illness. Just a hateful individual who bought into the perception that his failures was the fault of the white man. Hate and anger is what this shooting boiled down to.
