****ing horrendous. As a person involved in journalism, it feels even worse. And yet I guarantee those ****s who oppose gun control will still bleat their bullshit.
Sadly I can't realistically think of a set of circumstances which would persuade the US to support gun control in any significant way.
Very strange one, they were just in a shopping centre doing a piece on tourism, seems like it was a random attack.
I've just seen this and they are flagging up a disgruntled employee of the TV station, very sad, r.i.p. to the poor people murdered, astounding a country like America is still so backward as to let any lunatic get easy access to guns like this
Not a good week for shootings... FourFourTweet @FourFourTweet Sad news coming out of Uruguay. Goalkeeper Alexis Viera has been shot & has cord damage. He may never walk again.
Two employees of a local CBS affiliate were shot and killed live on air near Roanoke Virginia this morning. They were Adam Ward, 27, a camerman, and Alison Parker, 24, a reporter. A third victim, who was being interviewed at the time of the shooting, was shot in the back and is in hospital. Police have identified the suspect, who was reportedly a disgruntled employee at the station. Local media have reported that a car chase is in progress, and Virginia's governor said police are closing in on the suspect. It appears that the suspect fired approximately 8 shots from a semi-automatic pistol. The FBI have joined the investigation.
Easy answer. Change the laws to no guns. A two week amnesty. Anyone caught with a gun gets electrocuted. That will soon get the population down and clean the world of the scumbags. Bags I be first to turn the electric on.
It's every Americans right to own a gun and shoot journalists. A noisy minority shouldn't be able to ruin things for the well behaved majority.
Thanks to the miracle of the internet, I already know that this bloke is a light skinned black male, 6'3" and he's currently driving a silver 2009 Ford Mustang down I-64 in Virginia, with a police helicopter in pursuit. He'll be shot in the next few minutes, they all get shot, it's how they roll.
Very sad that normal people lose their lives to idiots like these. Great that the **** will be shot and killed though. Saves keeping the nutjob locked up at the expense of the Government.
If i had my way, I would round up all the work dodgers and benefits cheats and simply dispose of them. Create an environment with decent law abiding citizens. Sadly, I know I am living in cloud cuckoo land.
