A man claiming to be Bryce Williams called ABC News over the last few weeks, saying he wanted to pitch a story, and wanted to fax information. He never told ABC News what the story was.

This morning, a fax was in the machine (time stamped 8:26 a.m.)almost two hours after the shooting. A little after 10 a.m., he called again, and introduced himself as Bryce, but also said his legal name was Vester Lee Flanagan, and that he shot two people this morning. While on the phone, he said authorities are “after me,” and “all over the place.” He hung up. ABC News contacted the authorities immediately and provided them with the fax.

In the 23-page document faxed to ABC News, the writer says “MY NAME IS BRYCE WILLIAMS” and his legal name is Vester Lee Flanagan II.” He writes what triggered today’s carnage was his reaction to the racism of the Charleston church shooting:

“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."

I'm amazed how reporters are consistently capable of doing live shots despite everything going on around them, even the reporters at my local podunk tv station does this well.

It's obviously an acquired skill to block out distractions and focus on their job.

Vester Flanagan II was the logical end-state of the Black Lives Matter movement. BLM has now been co-opted by the black LGBT movement. This is where BLM ends—with the logarithmic victimhood scale going off-scale high to the point of total nutjob violence.

Can somebody explain to me the differences between Vester Flanagan II grievances and Ta-Nehisi Coates grievances? Both see offenses everywhere. Both are angry at every white person. Both cheer and advocate violence against white people.
