    Yes. He actually sued another station he worked for for discrimination. In his manifesto he talked about the shit he got for being a gay black man.

    I was actually going somewhere with asking if he was black but I don't think my sense of humor would pay off on the subject. :D

    In Roanoke? Never. It's not that kind of a town. I'd feel safer downtown at night there than I would in Charlotte or Greensboro in the middle of the afternoon.

    The shooting was at least 25 minutes away, in an even nicer lake area. People move to this kind of place so they won't have to worry about violence.

    My number 1 son works in a local CBS TV station. They do have security measures in place for getting into the building as they do get repeated threats, etc. They also have to consider being the subject of a hostage situation or some sort of take over attack, they are a media outlet.

    But remote crews are on their own. Often the reporter will also be the cameraman, using a camera they remotely control on a tripod if the segment is to be aired later.
    If it's live they need a small satellite truck. Those can be set up with a crew of two, the tech/cameraman and reporter.
    But I'll ask him what size the production crew usually is.

    But really, how hard is it to sneak up behind someone talking into a camera, whip out a gun and shoot them???


    No personal security.....usually local stations operate on a limited budget.

    I've seen Anderson Cooper working for CNN on the streets of New Orleans with only a camera operator.

    I just meant in general. If I was a reporter, I'd probably be asking for security after that. Should create a few hundred jobs. :)

    It's funny I remember seeing an old movie called "The Trip" with Jack Nicholson. In the bonus features they talked about hiring The Hells Angels to work security while they did outdoor shots in Haight Ashbury.

    Sorry to get off track but I couldn't help but think of that in response to your post.

    Don't forget that most stand ups have a very bright light over the camera. There's a blindness.

    Just sat and stewed on it for years

    In the long fax that he sent in yesterday, he had highly complimentary things to say about other recent mass murderers. Somehow, we're developing a twisted subculture of people who think the greatest accomplishment in life is to kill as many random people as possible.

    I don't understand it, but then... if I did understand that kind of thinking, I'd be worried about myself. I guess we can't understand it. If those people hate life so much, I wish they would just kill themselves and leave the rest of us out of it, especially total strangers.

    In his suicide note, he justified the killing by saying it was the "church shooting" that sent him over the edge. So killing two innocent white people is revenge for a bigot killing eight blacks. "Black lives matter"

    He also blamed "sexual discrimination" because he was gay. The term "gay" lost a lot of meaning.
