Just watched the video but it looks like she took like 3 or 4 shots and kept running. Also, the killer shot himself but apparently posted a go pro video to Twitter and YouTube first... Idk, this is odd to me and the comments on the front page are full of antigun, bandwagon posts.

Real life isn't a video game. He has a low caliber firearm and this isn't in 1080p. She likely kept going due to the adrenaline that flooded her system as she realized the guy she fucked over came back for revenge.

I know life isn't a video game and that's why it's odd this seems so much like one

Life isn't a scripted movie, either.

Download it, put it in vlc, slow it down

The beginning of the video, wtf? Does no one see him just standing there like this is call of duty. Shouldn't their eye sight she some random dude holding what looks to be a gun? I'll give benefit of doubt and go with they are on TV and focused on each other.

The video does not show her getting shot in my opinion, even though he is standing ~5 ft from her. This is not proof either way considering that a lot more shots when off after we can't see anything.

I really don't know.. I would think there would be some pretty immediate blood and I would think multiple shots would make it hard to just sprint away. Also odd that the cameraman seems to make room for the shooter and the nobody noticed or even cared he was there, despite being so close and apparently someone they knew. Also odd that for someone that wanted to film their own sick murder, they really didn't show anything or seem to give any time to make sure they were dead before the camera goes all nutty. It just doesn't seem real to me.

Watch the live leak of a Syrian fighter getting head shot by a sniper.. Movies have ruined people to what real violence looks like.

Video games, too

I thought same thing. Doesn't look real, shots don't look like they make impact

Why bother filming at all if you aren't going to get the kill on film?

Yea that's what I'm getting at.

You have clearly never been shot or talked with anyone who has been shot by a small caliber handgun.

I havent been shot, thankfully, but I've talked to a few who have been shot. Care to explain rather than just be a jerk?

Yeah, tell us about the time you were shot /u/beastlol

I don't know much about getting shot but I am skeptical about this too. Would it really take 4+ shots from point blank to bring down a thin woman like her?

Yes. That's why there always talk of stopping power.

Bullets are small compared to people so unless it's a headshot or a shot to the spine that will immobilize her she would definitely be able to move after a torso hit.

How about just getting her to drop the mic?

Every see a a Major League Baseball player hit the ball and run with the bat.

Your mind is trying to focus on the most immediate stimulus and decide which action to take.

The action sometimes is fuck everything else and run. Like run to the base or run from the bullet. You don't have time to think about dropping the mic or the bat. You're just trying to live or get a base hit.

Reporters are supposed to "tune out" their surroundings when doing a report like this

WHAT she took 3 to the body and didn't even get knocked back. She's standing on heels with a high center of gravity and a light frame. Are you fucking serious. Those would have literally shorn most of her abdomen muscles and seized up her mid section no way she could've turned around and bolted like that

its not the movies.. 9mm just punching holes in you not blowing you off your feet.

Lmaooooo that's not what I meant. Never mind

I dont think people ever get blown back by small caliber bullets, thats a hollywood thing.

Lmao not thrown back. I'm talking about the feeling of getting pushed over like if someone hit you in the side

He could've missed the first couple of shots, not everyone is James Bond when shooting a gun

No. Most poeple don't know when their shot.

It's not the movies bullets don't knock people back. Bullets kill by penetrating and causing internal trauma.

Adrenaline will keep you alive for a good amount of time.

She didn't even drop the mic. It took three shots before she drops her notes.

Right, assuming this is real it was the last three bullets that killed her, not the first three.

Guy sucks at firing gun for sure though so that is what makes me skeptical about that. He misses point blank, the gun shifts from one side of her body to the other. So how did he manage to hit the harder shot? Luck is the only answer.

A shot to the "torso" or two and getting three put in her "white privilege" are two different things altogether.

People are assuming that the gun contained live rounds. There is nothing in the way she reacts (either voluntary or involuntary) to being "shot", that suggests that is the case.

Even somebody who believes the bullets are real would have to acknowledge that there is zero evidence in the videos that she was hit by live rounds.

Or he posted it before going on a chase and shooting himself.

Could have but it's just so fuckin weird. I imagine once the killing is done your mindset kind of goes into this "what did I just do?" phase just super odd to that a shooting on live tv left the guy enough time to upload the video and run....I'm not saying I know anything for certain the whole thing is just odd to me especially with. e immediate steering of the conversation to "come on America get rid of guns!"

Well considering she cost him his job and apparently made racist comments toward him, he planned this. He didn't stop to think "what did I just do?" he stopped and thought "well business is taken care of, time to show the world!"

For people who watched the gun mans video- As a news crew its pretty common for people to be loitering around and you have to just ignore it, especially if you are on live tv. You just block out all distractions, they may have realized that someone was near, but were not paying attention to what he was doing. This is just general professionalism for film crews.

This is a tragedy and I do believe going lives were taken pointlessly, I'm questioning the gun man's true identity.

The man's true identity is relevant to the story because it explains why the former employee was angry and how he knew where his former co-workers would be.

Yep. Prior racial tension--merely perceived or otherwise--lead this individual to initiate a murderous hate crime spree against three innocent, unarmed white victims.

As an aside: Thanks SJW, this year will forever be known as your high-water mark. Enjoy your moment keyboard commandos. You've earned it.

Can you explain the aside?

IIWII.

So you can't explain the aside.

It explains itself. Particularly so when considered in the light of the statement prior. Other than that, I'm not certain what sort of further "explanation" you could require.

Why it's relevant, mainly.

I guess you refuse to read the man's manifesto..

Edit: clearly now you are just an SJW trolling. I'll be moving along now. Enjoy your time over at atheism and TwoX... kthxbye. :)

Fair enough.

If you can't explain it, then you don't understand it and there's nothing for me to gain here.

It is understood fully by all but the most reality-averse SJW. :)

Go read his manifesto before forming another dumbass quip.

Damn, you're just a big 'ol ball of fallacies aren't you?

Quit being a creeper. Get a life.

Heyo!

Double ad hominem. Two points!

SJW is obvious. :)

You score no points, and you do not pass go.

aren't most live things now given like a 10 second buffer precisely for this reason?

Not necessarily, there's still plenty of vids where people have run on camera and done something silly.

Especially local market stuff for these shitty morning shows. That's as live as it gets.

they said the gunman shot himself. yeah, sure he did.

Only slightly more believable than Dzokhar's convenient throat injury.

So hold on. Is it confirmed or not that even smaller, local TV stations have a few seconds of a buffer for live TV?

Looks to be a glock 9mm. 9 mm is one of the fastest flying pistol projectiles and one of the smallest. Seems likely she could take a couple hits and keep running like she did. Most likely crazy adrenaline. If it was a 357 might be a different video.

Any videos? Hadn't heard of this.

Gunman POV on a gopro

link is down

So if you watch this video and count the shots its like 14 or 15 shots... is this video edited after it goes dark?

Both videos I have seen have only been 8 shots.

oh im sorry... the one LulzMacky posted...

Whoops... now that one is down...

It is down but I've seen the gopro camera and it was only 8 shots. Unless of course this is a different video but I doubt it. The one I have is 25 seconds long.

YES thank you.. I do not carry and way curious as to what kind of gun it was. It looks smaller so 8 shots seemed like it was an appropriate amount.. I too counted 14/15 shots in the extended POV video.

When the media whips up stories of RACISM all damn day, I am not at all surprised by this madness.

Never in the history of news has a cameraman taken his shot off of the person interviewing except this time.

So hold on. Is it confirmed or not that even smaller, local TV stations have a few seconds of a buffer for live TV?
