I wonder how long it is before we get some editorial trying to humanize him.

Media outlets like Fox News are already trying to cite 'Violent' video games as a factor for the recent mass shootings.

What a load of BS. These hacks are trying to hide the real issues behind these incidents using an easy (and false) target.

Sorry for that rant, this whole incident is just infuriating and I'm sick of people blaming easy targets like video games instead of actual factors.

Well if they blamed it on white supremacy they'd offend their base.

Fuckhead put out a manifesto that took talking points from Tucker Carlson, so there's no chance Fox would actually acknowledge his self-professed motivations.

As someone who also lives in the southern tier (a few counties away, bever met him) I want to throw in that his stated reasons to go to Buffalo are bullshit. We have black neighborhoods and immigrant communities here. Other than the bigger magazine he bought at a retail store ten minutes from his house on the PA side the weapon he used was completely NY legal (although he personally wasn't supposed to have it because of red flag laws that are casually easy to bypass), so the gun control thing was also bullshit.

Not that I want the yiffing terrorist attack closer to home, but it makes no sense.

Depends if he intended to get away with it. Unlike most mass shooters, this guy wasn't suicidal.

I'm waiting on Fox News to create some sorry where the terrorist is mentally ill, a result of a poor childhood, throw in some BS talking points like video games or music. Create a victim instead.
