I bet the NRA is all like "woah, guys, this one isnt on us. We said people should have more guns....not BLACK people. "

good piece by shane ryan on the NYDN's cover

^ That article ...

Save for the fact that it was highly pre-mediated (not a crime of passion, or family feud), it happened live on TV, he was trying to send a message based on previous killings, and whatever else ... yeah its ordinary all right.

8/27/2015 11:35:44 AM

loved the article

there are television channels that seem to exist just so they can show the JFK assassination and videos of the towers falling on 9/11, but this incident seems to be too much for a significant amount of people

again, I'm not gonna go out of my way to watch either of the videos, but the handwringing when it comes to things like this can be a bit much at times

8/27/2015 11:48:57 AM

i think a better comparision would be made between these murders and the budd dwyer suicide than either of the two events you mentioned. The Zapruder film wasn't broadcast publicly until 1975, and to me watching the WTC collapse is much less traumatic than seeing an individual die close up.

8/27/2015 12:02:27 PM

murder and suicide are two entirely different things

8/27/2015 12:04:08 PM

yeah and so is comparing a live broadcasted murder to one not seen on video for 10+ years and the WTC attacks where no individuals can be seen.

[Edited on August 27, 2015 at 12:11 PM. Reason : that's why it's too much for some people. it's live. you see their faces.]

8/27/2015 12:10:37 PM

how many of us were born before 1975?

and I have a book (Four Days) that was published in 1964 that shows shots of JFK's head exploding, so it's not like the genie got let out of the bottle in '75

8/27/2015 12:19:28 PM

yes, but it's also easy to distance yourself from pictures of a political assassination when you're not a head of state.

8/27/2015 12:25:03 PM

There's always creepy bloody crime happening near Blackburg. Before the financial crisis, a Chinese student in VT cut off the head of his girlfriend.

"A man shot a uniformed sheriff's deputy "execution-style" while he fueled his patrol car in the Houston area, killing him instantly, authorities said. Deputy Darren H. Goforth, 47, was returning to his car after pumping gas Friday night. The gunman walked up from behind him and opened fire for no apparent reason, Harris County Sheriff Ron Hickman said. When Goforth fell to the ground, the gunman stood over him and shot him some more, authorities said. He died at the scene. "

another similar one

8/30/2015 9:27:14 AM

So the shooter was a former sheriff deputy?

Otherwise, I don't see how they are very similar. It's about as dumb as the comparisons I've been seeing on Facebook.

8/30/2015 9:45:09 AM

^said they were similar. not very similar

8/30/2015 9:56:58 AM

OK ceriosely, I don't believe in the usual false-flag conspiracy theories that abound after every such incident in the US, but someone please watch the videos below and explain (they are the videos in the link above).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wCd4bg2PuE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsENIffBFCA (this is 15 min and i watched it all, but just watch the first bit about gun recoil)

9/14/2015 6:30:49 AM

So even if there was a conspiracy and this is all a hoax, the question remains, why?

There has been no debate on gun control because of this, and even if there was, it's not like it would go anywhere.

It's not like this is being blamed on a terrorist and being used as an excuse to attack someone else.

Who stands to benefit from this shooting, besides maybe the news studio for a little bit of publicity?

9/14/2015 7:40:19 AM

I mean surely by now they would have come out and said its a hoax right? Or by now people would have seen these people walking around in public ya know not dead...

9/14/2015 8:41:43 AM

I am not debating ^ or ^^... I am simply asking for an explanation of what's on those 2 videos, especially the first one.

Too many things going on for it to be a hoax. I mean, you would have to have the police force that recovered the vehicle and body of the shooter calling BS, you would have the hospital that "treated" the woman being interviewed calling BS. Too many people would have had to have been in on it.

9/14/2015 8:58:49 AM

^^ shirley, you can't be that stupid? and stick to the topic.

9/14/2015 9:13:53 AM

i watched that first video with the head nod...

1. Body cam video is shaky and grainy, making any head nod much less visible, and possibly lost to the video noise.

2. It's at a different angle where the head nod would not be as apparent because the plane of the head nod motion is lined up much more closely to the axis of the camera direction.
