I've seen the POV and you're still blaming the victims for their own deaths. You just don't realize it.

I wouldn't recommend anyone watches the guy's personal video. I'm still regretting it. Gives me chills every time I picture him pointing the gun at her just a few feet away.

I beg to differ.
The lady in white should have noticed, the reporter and obv the cameraman get a pass.
Period.

I've seen the POV videos, and if you have ever been behind the camera, you know it's your job to tune everything out. You really don't focus on your surroundings and focus simply on your interviewer or interviewee. You are either entirely ignorant or you are blaming the people for their fate. It's fricking ridiculous, and please shut up while you're behind.

Ok, tough guy, go up to her hospital bed and blame her for the situation. Couldn't have been because it was her first time before the camera and she was entirely focused on it, and maybe a few people she barely knew came up to her before. Keep being the tough guy who would go all Rambo on the situation and have saved everyone. It's a tragedy you weren't the one being interviewed, because you would have clearly subdued the guy and they would have built a statue of you. What a tough, perceptive guy you are.
Seriously, even if that woman took notice, what the frick would have happened when they're at point blank range from them. It's not as if they're 1,000 years away from a sniper and can simply duck.

I'm not reading through the thread to get annoyed. Been away from news sources too, hope the shooter was captured or killed.

How did they not notice the shooter?

The victim didn't react the way you'd expect after being shot.
Watching Don Lemon and sure enough, Sunny Hostin says it's about race because blacks don't have the same access to mental health treatment, as if the shooter was on welfare and had no resources.
Whitey strikes again.

he killed himself
quote:
The killer, Vester Lee Flanagan, faxed a rambling 23-page letter to ABC in New York explaining his actions. In his letter he admitted that he wanted a race war and that he was killing for racial reasons.
“Why did I do it? I put down a deposit for a gun on 6/19/15. The Church shooting in Charleston happened on 6/17/15…”
“What sent me over the top was the church shooting. And my hollow point bullets have the victims’ initials on them.”
It is unclear whose initials he is referring to. He continues, “As for Dylann Roof? You (deleted)! You want a race war (deleted)? BRING IT THEN YOU WHITE …(deleted)!!!” He said Jehovah spoke to him, telling him to act.
Later in the manifesto, the writer quotes the Virginia Tech mass killer, Seung Hui Cho, calls him “his boy,” and expresses admiration for the Columbine High School killers. “Also, I was influenced by Seung–Hui Cho. That’s my boy right there. He got NEARLY double the amount that Eric Harris and Dylann Klebold got…just sayin.'”

so ridiculous.
this man was a racist and he acted on him, period. it's just pure evil to be able to do that.

How would it have mattered? He had them no matter what. He was just standing there waiting on the camera man to put the camera back on the reporter. Had the lady being interviewed noticed, it wouldn't have changed a damn thing.

Unfortunately dark alleys aren't only places bad shite happens.
Schools, conveinient stores, movie theaters and boardwalks fall victim too.
Pay attention at all times.

frick dude. She was doing an interview on LIVE TV. How many times have you seen a professional reporter conducting a live interview totally ignore the interviewee and look at every rando that walks by? Never. Because they are doing their fricking job.

You're and idiot bro

So that's a hard "no". Got it.

I'd really love this fricking hardass to go up to up to either of these women's fathers and tell them they should have been paying closer attention to their surroundings looking out for a murderer over something as trivial as they were reporting. If you really mean what you say, why not say it to them? Personally, I think he's a stupid pussy who has no idea what it's like behind the camera, but somehow he has no industry experience to where he knows they should have seen this guy coming.

what are you proposing? That it was staged or something?
Of course not. if anything my comments suggest a calculated diabolical effort by the shooter to pull this off.
