ROANOKE, Va. (AP) — The woman who survived the on-air shooting that killed two TV journalists says she never saw the gunman walk up to the group because the camera's bright light blinded her.

Vicki Gardner, a chamber of commerce official, was answering questions about the community on live TV when the gunfire erupted. She was wounded as she fell to the ground after hearing the first gunshots, her husband said Friday.

The gunman, Vester Flanagan, ambushed WDBJ-TV cameraman Adam Ward and reporter Alison Parker during the interview Wednesday at the Smith Mountain Lake Visitor Center....

Forced into jobs way over his abilities via Affirmative Action - not surprising he ends up feeling incompetent and victimized because he continually fails and loses positions.......

Gunman in on-air deaths remembered as ‘professional victim’

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3330417/posts
A little earlier today, a thread in which Barry asks that the drum be banged slowly for—himself:
“Obama: I Understand ‘Cruelty Of Man’ Because I’m An African-American”

Is it any wonder that this moron did what he did?
This is on Obama.
Not guns, The Man Keeping Me Down or the Law mistreating homos.
Obama.
The buck stops with the pResident. Finally.

I am not sure what the article meant but I gleaned that the future killer was offended by Miss Parker when she mentioned an address that had the word “cotton” in it. Taken as a reference to slavery in the fevered brain of Vester Flanagan.

Farrakhan calls for a race war, and this black murderer of whites also wanted a race war. Since “words have consequences “, where are the consequences for Farrakhan’s incitment of murder?

Is David Duke asked for 10,000 volunteers to kill black people, would be face consequences ?

A gun didn’t kill these two people. A lowlife, scum-sucking racist faggot killed them. The ‘RATS need to stop dancing in the blood of these two young people and do something to stop Obonzo’s race war.

One thing that conspiracy theorists might want to note is the “bright lights of the camera”, hence why the hand looked lighter skinned.

Not to mention that delicious, delicious watermelon served at the station.

I had no idea that the existence of watermelon was "racist".

I've GOT to get my mind right.

I probably need a night in the box.

No, she said "in the field" and "swing by this address".

No mention of "cotton fields" or "cotton picking" except in the mind of an incompetent racist homosexual murderer.

Being a victim is easier than working hard ...and, now, being a victim is supported and encouraged by the government

Funny how white people are not burning down thier town because of black on white crime. The underlying “keep this quiet and off the front pages” open season on whites in this country is astounding, do the math from each state

“Forced into jobs way over his abilities via Affirmative Action”..............

Not far from the truth except I doubt they are being “forced”. Most I have seen or dealt with are indeed well over their level of competency.

I anticipate seeing more of such killings as the copy-cats begin to surface. We see similar killings happening to law enforcement people who are ambushed by some “disgruntled” idiot. And yet we hear “crickets” coming from the usurper in chief to put a lid on the stupidity.

By “forced” I meant the government pushing to have more blacks and other minorities hired into the workforce to meet actual quotas as to levels of employment - Limbaugh did a whole segment this week about it in broadcasting - he watched it back in the ‘80’s - well qualified and experienced whites pushed out of jobs for which they worked and prepared for years for new-hires totally inexperienced and under prepared - I saw the same thing in the hospital field - white males in line for a higher level job for which they were a prefect fit in knowledge and experience cast aside and replaced by a young black female who had never worked in a hospital setting before in her life - funny thing was the powers who put her into the job couldn’t stand her a few years later and exiled her to an assignment far, far away - but the white guy had still had his career unjustly short-circuited - sickening and silly.....
