This is what the PC crowd has done, made common speech so impossible that a NEWS organization saying "field reporter" means "slaves in a cotton field" and "swing by the station" means "oh you just said I'm a monkey because I am black". These belong on a standup comedy routine but they are actually real with DEADLY consequences of a hate crime.

Someone brought in a watermelon to work and he claimed it was to mock him. Part of his frivolous lawsuit against the station was that the watermelon was placed around the office to harass him.

LOL, harassed by a watermelon.

This is the way all liberals think. Every action by white people is construed as racist. Liberalism is a mental disease.

Slow your roll there, Chief.

1) Flanagan's beef was not with the use of these phases by "a NEWS organization", but rather there use by individuals who happened to work for a news organization. He would likely have reacted the same way had the phrases been uttered by his co-workers in any employment setting.

2) One guy was offended by these common phrases, not 'the PC crowd'.

It's okay to be a right-wing nutjob, but stupid? Don't be that.

The above seems like it was written by John Kerry's nuance spinner. Huh?

Try to read, OP said PC crowd started it, not that they believed it. I think that was the point, PC crowd has started an avalanche.

Flanagan twisted everyday expressions into racism. Most people, even the rabidly politically correct, would not consider 'swinging by' a place to be a veiled reference to lynching, or being 'in the field' to imply that the subject was picking cotton. That's not 'PC', that's crazy.

So let me see if I have this right...

Dylan Roof "obviously" is the product of a systemic culture of racism to the point that we must remove any and all references to confederate flags that they happened to find one picture of him with and related influences even to the point of removing them toy cars and renaming roads.

But Vester was not at all influenced by the constant drone of racism and the victimization culture promoted by the PC crowd, he was just some crazy dude.

Gotcha. lol

The Confederate Battle Flag is widely considered a racist symbol. Roof embraced that racist symbol because...wait for it...he is racist. So racist, in fact, that he murdered eight Black folks he'd met for the first time less than an hour before, folks who had welcomed him into their midst and treated him kindly, solely because they were Black. Roof’s victims were anonymous representations of his hatred.

Flanagan used Roof's actions as an excuse for his own, but he chose to slay Parker and Ward specifically because he believed that they, as individual persons, had wronged him personally. Flanagan meted out revenge on his enemies.

If you cannot understand that the motivations of Roof & Flanagan were nothing alike, I pity you.

Rightards basically feel like they're being persecuted by some kind of double-standard. They're tired of being treated as unequals.

Actually not based on his own justification for why he did it and his long history of perceived racial and gay victimization. Which there is a well established narrative promoting the same. They were in a sense just as random. They just happened to be the last ones in a long line leading up to it. If this were a case of some stand-alone event, then you might make that argument. But it very clearly was not. By his own words it was not.

If you can't see the disconnect in your argument then I pity you.

He got all riled up about race issues and decided to use his 2nd amendment rights to refudiate the lamestream media.

Perhaps you don’t understand the meaning of ‘random’. Random selection is a method of selecting items from a population where the probability of choosing a specific item is the proportion of those items in the population.

Had Flanagan desire to just ‘kill white people, he wouldn’t have driven 30 miles, past thousands of ‘white people’, to get to Parker & Ward so he could kill them.

Obviously, your argument that Flanagan choice to murder Parker & Ward was random, when he in fact judgmentally chose to kill them based on specific criteria (i.e.; his perception that they had mistreated him), is nonsensical.

Except that the "lamestream media" and the progressive left's influence on it is a big part of promoting the racial victimization narrative so your attempt at "wit" doesn't really work.

From which right-wing nutjob pandering website did you cut & paste that propaganda?

Perhaps you don't understand that a racially motivated crime doesn't have to be completely random. Because he happened to know them as a result of being victimized while working at the station doesn't remove the larger motivations he may have had.

In fact, even his primary issues with the on-job "victimization" that he believed that he experienced appear to be more with the station than only with those two individuals. He very likely selected them based on his planning of an event targeting (no pun intended) the station that he thought that he could pull off and get away with. They were a representaion of the station and all other white people, straight people, and females who had persecuted him to that point. And the other woman who was shot had absolutely nothing to do with any personal vendetta so your rationalization completely fails there.

None. You're not really going to try to argue that the left and those in most media which very much lean left don't promote a narrative of racial victimization are you?

I mean even you know that racial and gay persecution is real and systemic right?

#blacklivesmatter bro. lol

I feel sorry for Flannigan as it was not his fault. It was societies fault. I think he did the wrong thing by killing people but Southern VA is very racist and it made him explode.

Perhaps you don't understand that crimes of passion do not necessarily have a racial component. Because the assailant and the victims happen to have had different skill colors does not prove this was a racially motivated crime.

It has to do with select people who worked at the station rather than the station itself.

Flanagan had made specific complaints against Parker while he worked at the station. Ward had filmed his shaming when Flanagan was escorted from the station upon termination. Parker and Ward were Flanagan's targets, not 'representations'.

> nothing to do with any personal vendetta

She was a witness whom Flanagan needed to eliminate. Nothing more.

Perhaps you don't understand that it wasn't a crime of passion. It was planned in advance and executed directly in accordance with what he believed was long time in the coming.

Nope. It wasn't just that he had some beef ONLY with those two individuals. He just specifically commented on them after the fact on Twitter. In fact, the guy who runs the station said that he wasn't aware of any specific complaints against or made by Parker. He had problems with others there and with the management of the station. He filed an EEOC complaint against the station. He filed suit against another station where he worked for the same reasons. He had similar problems at other stations. He had problems with his neighbors. He had problems with others who had "persecuted" him for being a gay black man. As I said, even he cites factors way beyond any specific issues with those two individuals.

He shot them on live TV, filmed it himself, posted it on Facebook under his account, and Tweeted out that he'd done it. Now in light of all of that, pause and reflect on how stupid your "witness" nonsense is. lmao
