Four people shot in the building where my kids' orthodontist is. It's breaking news at the moment via a local facebook page.

good lord! like going to the orthodontist isn't terrifying enough

She's actually really great. I'm just worried about everyone who works there, and then the kids. It's an office building with multiple businesses (including our local newspaper). Super quiet place.

They're saying 4 dead, 20+ injured.

AA Co police having responded, a living suspect almost certainly means a white dude.

I took one for the team and read Milo’s Instagram post on this. My advice: don’t bother.

Suspect is not cooperating with the police, won't even give his name. Little fucking white warrior shithead.

there's no correct way to behave and they're of course welcome to do whatever helps, but this whole thing about the survivors reporting on their massacred co-workers and 'we've got a paper to put to bed!' and other journalists saluting their dedication is kinda creepy
― mookieproof, Thursday, 28 June 2018 21:42 (five years ago) link
dunno why but i'm guess that this won't turn out to be ~purely~ motivated by a desire to kill journalists. my gut feeling is dude will turn out to have some personal beef coupled with these recent incitements. "hatred of journalists deep enough to kill them indiscriminately" still seems pretty fringe compared to, like, "hatred of black people/LGBTQ/women/Jews/Muslims/etc"
― gbx, Thursday, 28 June 2018 22:07 (five years ago) link
which doesn't make it any less tragic/horrifying, and, if anything, places more blame on milo/trump/et al

Dude allegedly mutilated his fingers to avoid detection but got sold out by big brother. damn.

well the shooter's name is out and it doesn't *appear* to be an alt-right dude, rather a guy with a grievance against the capital gazette specifically

Ramos sued the Capital Gazette for defamation in 2012 after it wrote about his guilty plea to criminal harassment in a 2011 column. His case was dismissed, and an appeals court affirmed the decision.

this kind of dude was likely to support trump in general, doesn't mean he's alt-right
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 29 June 2018 02:47 (five years ago) link
true. read up on it; I guess he stalked someone he used to know on FB years ago, became a fucking creep; she got a restraining order; the paper wrote an article about this; then he started suing them for defamation despite the fact everything they published was public record. seems to have held a grudge. fucking nutcase.

at the very least it means that unless some new revelation comes out there is officially no reason to pay attention to m*lo on this (or anything)
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 29 June 2018 03:19 (five years ago) link
agreed. also i think in the interview cited he said that "killing journalists" (or w/e) was his new response to anyone asking for comment. he's awful, he should be drummed out of public life, and we give him too much credit and oxygen, let him go enjoy his wealth on his lonesome (we'll take it later)
― gbx, Friday, 29 June 2018 03:25 (five years ago) link
Once again the crux of the story is an angry young white man who stalked women. Ugh.
