First, the videos involved, from the TV perspective then the suspect’s perspective.
From the suspect:
Then the story. Please click on the link to get up to speed.
That done, what is this?
Is it a gun control issue? Is it a mental health issue? Is it a work security issue? Is it a situational awareness issue? Or is it a race issue that won’t, like usual, be addressed?
What is this?
We know from history that Leftists will make this, immediately, a gun control issue. Because it fits that meme wonderfully.
We are also soon to see “poor black employee discriminated-against at work, feels no option left but to take his own retribution.”
Better yet, this will soon morph to “poor black and gay employee discriminated-against at work and feels no option left but to take his own retribution.”
How about “racist, sexist black gay male who feels himself nothing but a victim because he’s been told he’s a victim all his life by those who profit from Victimhood”? How about that meme?
Americans have been told, and the information reinforced daily, that we are nothing if we are not victims of something. Victims of Caucasoids, victims of sexism, ageism, racism, victims of oppression, victims of our environment, of our teachers, of our neighbors, of the police, of everyone but government because, as all good Leftists know, government is the source of all good things big and small. Just ask Julia.
The suspect, whose names doesn’t deserve mentioning here, was censured for wearing an Obama sticker while conducting in interview at a pollng place when he worked at the TV station.
He was fired Friday, February 1st of 2013 from the station and made a big deal about same, to the point where police were called. It was the fault of everyone else; never him. Then Wednesday occurred.
He had “grievances” and wanted to be a “big deal” live and direct. But what kind of a “deal” was he really? Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke informs us all:
“Never speak of this guy again.” With one major exception: the moment the news came out, the American Media Maggots and Demorats/Leftists wasted no time in trotting out the ancient gun control saw.
Really? For a firearm that was purchased legally? For a person that could lawfully own a firearm in Virginia after having been backgrounded? Try examining the facts again, Leftists. But facts mean nothing to you when it’s all about the gun control meme.
To me, this sounds like a replay of LAPD’s Chris Dorner. He too had “grievances” and decided to solve them by killing his fellow employees.
Men who saw victimhood and racism and sexism and all sorts of -isms under every rock, behind every curtain and in every nook and cranny encountered in their lives.
Which gave them their own personal licenses to kill. Mentally disturbed men. Men of whom other persons said “you know, I kinda saw this coming.”
People saw the TV reporter suspect coming. But they couldn’t say anything because he possessed the terrible duality of being black and gay. Lord knows we can’t judge black people or gays. Black and gay? No way, not touching that one.
But here’s the hard truth, America. The truth you don’t want to see or admit.
You are producing these people.
These people with grievances.
You, as parents, are responsible for producing people who believe that they are entitled to any number of positions and stations in life. They are entitled to the latest technology, the latest games, the latest phones and tablets, the best and newest clothes, the nicest cars, the best jobs, the smoothest schedules and days off, the easiest working conditions, plus hot-and-cold-running promotions. Just for showing up. If they show up. You should be blessed they deigned to show up.
The TV reporter suspect, his machinations didn’t start last week or last year or ten years ago. The Grievance Factory started churning him out when he was a child. He displayed these tendencies when he was small, and the family and neighborhood and schools and teachers reinforced his feelings of entitlement.
To put it bluntly: your kids are nice but they’re nothing special. They lie, they cheat, they steal, they underperform, they come sniveling back to their parents and parents forgive them. Then school forgives them. Then society forgives them. They can come home and mommy and daddy will pet them and feed them. Their “exceptional individuality” is nurtured and coddled and soothed. They are industrially inculcated with their own sense of overinflated worth and pumped up with fallacious esteem. People must appreciate them, love them, just because they exist. Just because they are.
Helicopter parents. Parents who insist there is nothing for which their children must take responsibility or be accountable or be disciplined or face consequences or — gulp — experience failure.
Consequences. Failure. The ability to cope and press on. Life.
You’re not talking about me, you say. You’re not talking about my kids. You’ve gone too far, BZ.
Oh, really?
In the meantime, parents and the Grievance Factory just keeps churning ’em out.
“There there, Julia, it’s not your fault.”

P.S.
And I haven’t even addressed the massive issue of mental health — or the lack thereof — in America.
Guy was definitely unstable. Believe you have to enter in the homosexual aspect also as that also affects his views and attitude towards society. A militant black homosexual IMHO is a bomb waiting to go off. And this one did. Another one of Obama’s sons.
Unstable and entitled and grievous. There’s a wonderful combination. But if this becomes a “firearm” issue it should also become a “knife” and a “hatchet” and a “rock” issue as well.

It’s already started. The father of the cameraman who was killed by the BLACK, GAY, unemployed mentally deranged asshole is on his own march: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/28/us/virginia-tv-shooting-bryce-williams.html?_r=0
Naturally.
We need to “identify” people who are “becoming hateful.”
Really? Define “becoming hateful.” Further, just WHO gets to define “becoming hateful”?
Why, Leftists will, of course.
BZ
This will devolve into another gun control issue, while his REAL issues are quietly swept under the rug… AGAIN!!!
The UNSPOKEN aspect of this revolves around mental health. Some you can’t see coming and never will. Some are very clear.
