    Default Shooting during live broadcast in Virginia

    http://allenwestrepublic.com/2015/08...and-cameraman/

    Not sure this will work, but I just saw the NC gunman's cell phone video of him shooting!

    Governor McAuliffe wasted no time in using the event to further his gun control agenda!

    Never mind!

    UPDATE********** YouTube Pulls Video 1:48PM ET (3rd Video Pulled From Public View)





    Cameraman’s Video


    Reporter, photographer dead after shots fired during live shoot.
    Here was his Twitter feed after the incident.

    I saw the video on YouTube before they took it down. So sad for those people. I hear that SOB is still alive but critical. I'd give my Kingdom to finish that POS off.

    Here's another that still worked just now:

    https://fbcdn-video-l-a.akamaihd.net...f94f1ced20c4d8

    This is a chilling example of total lack of situational awareness and being TOO FOCUSED on something else. The two women should have noticed a guy approaching them in that somewhat isolated and early morning... especially when he's pointing the pistol and videoing that with his phone! The poor cameraman never had a chance. Things MIGHT have gone differently if one of those women had glanced at the intruder!

    I just watched the video on that link and it stops at 42 seconds... just as the shooting is about to start. The gunman produced and pointed the pistol at the newswoman at about 19 seconds! Evidently the video was censored at the point the shooting started.

    They were doing a live shoot! you can't be just looking around for threats, you focus your attention on the job. I don't fault them for not seeing this nutbag. That poor woman.

    I edited my post after watching that link again. The two women should have noticed the intruder walking into their "space" and certainly noticed his handgun pointed at them for over 20 seconds. That area was supposedly deserted except for the three in the interview at that early in the morning.

    After watching it again, someone should have noticed that guy. But, it probably wouldn't have changed anything, he would have shot them a few seconds sooner is all.

    Wow that's hard to watch, almost wish I hadn't now, very very sad....I kept wanting to stop the video and yell "RUN" but I can see how the reporter was focused on the lady she was interviewing and the lady was focused on the reporter and the camera man couldn't have looked at anything else but his view finder.....So sick that some POS could have that much hate in his heart to do something like that and film himself doing it....Guess it just goes to show what kind of world we live in today....

    I paused the film. It looks like he used a Glock. From the sound of it I'd say a 9MM. The shooter was a head case.

    What's wrong with people these days? I feel bad for the victims. If you look at the shooters more current pictures he looks out of it. Wonder if he was on some crazy meds or a drug addict
