That dipshit Milo Y...whatever yesterday called for all journalists to be gunned down. I hope that isn't what caused this.

Of course, now he says he was "just joking."

CNN has identified the suspect as a white male in his 30s.

This is horrific I hold Trump, and other politicians, and their constant attacks on the media as the enemy, responsible.

*** Accused Capital Gazette shooter had sued paper, held grudge :

The man accused of killing five people at a Maryland newspaper had an ongoing grudge with the publication and brought smoke grenades and a shotgun in a "targeted" attack meant to kill people, police said Thursday night.

Court papers show that Ramos had filed a defamation suit against the newspaper in 2012. But a judge threw out the lawsuit and said Ramos "fails to come close to alleging a case of defamation." A Maryland appeals court further concluded that everything printed in the July 31, 2011 newspaper story about Ramos appeared to be true.

According to the court case, Ramos had pleaded guilty on July 26, 2011 in Anne Arundel County on a charge of criminal harassment and got a 90-day suspended jail sentence. Five days later, the Capital ran a story by staff writer Eric Thomas Hartley under the headline "Jarrod wants to be your friend."

So the Evil Orange One has spouted hatred towards journalists for months...and then this happens.

That horrible Ywhatever called for journalists to be gunned down...and this happens.

But it's all just fake news, right?

(And of course....it was perfectly this man's right to own weapons with which to murder five people so quickly, right? Add more blood to the ocean spilled by the ammosexuals...)

It appears that shooter has yet again a record of harrassing women. This is becoming a pattern.

Women are the canaries in the coal mine, except the canaries are taken seriously.

Here is a link I found with a PDF of the original newspaper article that became the shooter's obsession. It's just another column written about a local crime like the kind included in small newspapers all across the country.
