"Why weren't his EEOC complaints taken more seriously?"
CNN didn't even mention it in the report. Talked about previous suits he filed settled out of court, how he accused the victim of "racist remarks" but didn't mention the filings he made. Typical.

I've only just now gotten home and settled in to watch TV coverage. I've been watching CNN. The guy is black, he's apparently gay and he apparently saw himself as a victim of racism and maybe homophobia.
That's a lot of stuff for the media to work with to make him a victim.
To their credit, so far I have seen no evidence of that.
To be honest, I feel like the fact that he killed journalists is going to play into the coverage. The media is gonna take that personally and not play this like they would in other circumstances.

Being that I am neither black nor white I would love to hear this.

Media is saying Alison's mom found out about the shooting via a text from the news station. Wasn't until an hour later senior management finally called to tell her her daughter had passed

Well it's going to take some time to process the whole situation.

Black or white wasn't the issue with the comment you made, it was just an example. And the fact that you acted like you weren't a minority made me assume you were white. Either way, I don't need to express my opinions about you on here. I'm just saying I have a pretty good idea of what type of person you are. I bet you even have a black friend.

They were probably in a wtf stage. I mean, nobody knows what to do in that situation.

Yeah, I'm not going to knock them for that. A lot of stuff going on and it's not like the emergency contact information is tattooed to somebody.

Text to mom immediately to say something happened. Drive to scene which was a good ways out of Roanoke. Coroner still has to confirm death. Going to take an hour at least.

You are more ignorant than any comment I have made. You said black or white. Not me. And wrong again. I literally do not know,personally, one black person. You are full of stereotypes and get offended because I bring up something the shooter said? Get out of here. I still say, people like him, don't realize it. Until you have lived as a minority, GTF out of here with your nonsense.

Why do you want to see that, brah?

Not the picture. Just the report of a failed suicide

I have been in class since 2:00 so I'm a bit uninformed at the moment.
I expect there to be a significant amount of political correctness on my Facebook news feed this evening.
