Reason No. 1: It doesn’t fit the gun control narrative.
Reason No. 2: Pundits immediately—and incorrectly—blamed President Donald Trump.

I think they already have pretty much dropped it. Didn’t hear much about it at all.

After one of the survivors rudely and with profanity dismissed President Trumps proffered thoughts and prayers, I didn’t care to hear anything more from them anyway.

Reason 3: When the extent of just how deliberately and longstanding the targeting of this individual by this paper was eventually emerges, most people will end up agreeing that they brought it on themselves.

Reason 3: Even though the police were there within a minute, the killer still had the time to kill 5 because none of the victims was carrying.

3. The Make America Great Again hat story was a lie.

There is no RACE, angle, or GENDER angle, or BULLIED angle or (known) MUSLIM angle or worst of all, no TRUMP angle to exploit.

The fact that mass murders are becoming an ordinary common occurrence has a lot to do with why this story dropped off the radar so fast.

They all do now.

Reason 4. The weapon turned out not to be an AR fully automatic pump shotgun with a bump stock.

Reason 3: they’ll simply change the narrative to fit their agenda.

they do it all the time.

That’s a poor perspective.

The guy had an article written up on him as a criminal. It was true so the suit was thrown out.

He’s just angry his already dirty name is being muddied more. He was also angry at the judge. But that was a while back, and the long standing is HIS grudge. Not like they’ve been harassing him since.

there’s a lot more than that that hasn’t been reported in the mainstream... this goes much deeper than that one article

I just wonder if any one of the five people killed would have had a gun at the moment it was needed and then had the guts to use it.

So, arguably at least, Maryland gun laws are one issue but not the only issue. I suspect everyone killed was a liberal anti gunner.

The men and women of the Capital Gazette were hours removed from watching their colleagues be slaughtered simply for having the audacity to publish truthful material about a deeply troubled man.

Was the material truthful? Was their an agenda behind its publication?
