How about Kate Steinle being murdered by an illegal alien in the Bay Area. Does that make we American citizens all targets. How about conservative members of congress being gunned down at a baseball game? Does that make all conservatives targets? Your selective outrage is pathetic.
Workplace Violence, nothing more, nothing less.
These Journalist types haven’t been dehumanized by the 2016 Democrat Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton have they?
You know, the Nasty Woman who called 63 Million of her Opponent’s Supporters “Irredeemable Deplorables”.
If it was up to Trump, these Morons would have been able to Conceal Carry to Work and defend themselves.
They are blinded by the same hate the Murderer had.
Well actually it’s not and you are wrong. This was an attack on the people this sick bastard thinks wronged him: end of story. Go away this is not more than what it looks like.
Newspapers...corrupt.
Education....corrupt.
Drain the Swamp.
Amazing, the attack on a select few by a unhinged person with a specific grudge against a specific business becomes an attack on all Americans? These people just have to elevate themselves as ‘special’, what arrogance and conceit!
Squatting over the graves of their own dead and pretending to be a suitable substitute for Old Glory....
A few minutes of research will tell you this guy was a nut. This was not a political act.
I am surprisingly personally unmoved by the shotgun attack on the newspaper office. I guess I just don’t like the news media, in any shape or form,
HMMMmmm…
I somehow MISSED this part.

uh....no, it’s an attack on some very unfortunate individuals who happened to work for an organization against which some nutball had an axe to grind.
Nothing more to it really than that.
“Newspaper killings an attack on all Americans.”
Nonsense. Utter BS.
Re: “The killing of five staffers at an Annapolis, Md., newspaper is an attack on all of us.”
Wanna bet?
By the way...
I read that the Annapolis newspaper endorsed Trump in 2016.
Has that been confirmed?
While all politically motivated mass killings assaults all Americans in the sense that are national resolve is to resolve political differences at the ballot box, not with violence.
However, journalisits are not singularly or specially entitled to our rejection of political violence, any more than any other Americans. They deserve the same respect as other Americans, but not more than. They are not somehow “above” all other Americans.
I have long ago disabused myself from buying what the press is selling about itself as a “free press”.
I grew up thinking the term meant the press was POLITICALLY independent and could be relied to just report facts.
I learned over my liftetime that “the press” is very poltical animal and the opposite of being “free” of bias or political agendas.
Because of that “the press” has lost the respect it thinks it is due from me. I do not consider it “free” at all. It is a slave to political bias.
I buy a newspaper when I need to start a fire or have a painting project. I buy for its intrinsic value.
You were expecting something intelligent or honest from lying child pimping propaganda whores aka journalists.
