    But...but...Gawker commenters told me it was probably a white right-wing gun nut? A tea-partier? Now I don’t know what to think!

    But seriously, the "I hope the perpetrator is on the other guys team" speculation after events like this is distasteful, and needs to stop.

      No Gawker commenters didn’t tell you shit. Building your own argument and then attributing it to someone else is a lousy way to make your “point.”

      It’s not out of left field to assume a mass shooter is white and a gun enthusiast considering the majority of mass shooters fit that profile. Jumping to that conclusion is not a stretch, friend.

    Im embarassed how many gawker commenters were proudly chanting about white males and mras, you people cant wait until you find any tragedy you can try to hop onto and hijack for your political views.

    Be embarassed of yourselves and remove yourselves from here while others react to the news. This is not your soapbox for how progressive you want others to think you are.
    My sentiments to the victims of this huge tragedy, no one should meet an untimely violent end.

      Even it’s not a white dude, it’s still a man with entitlement issues. Race, religion, economic background, doesn’t seem to matter, MEN are the main perpetrators of violence even and against other men.

      You arent helping anything and are only coming across as massively sexist, which further disrupts dialogue and prevents arguments. You are not doing anyone any favours, so remove yourself as well. Thank you.

    Wait, what? That’s not the same guy in both photos.

    ETA: Oh good. Edit the article without any mention of it so I look like I’m just muttering crazy things in the corner over here.

      Nah, you're not crazy. I saw the two pictures as well and they were not remotely the same persons.

    Tweet from his alleged twitter account from a few seconds ago. If you look in the timeline history, it’s a lot of life reminiscing since it was created a couple weeks ago.

    EDIT: HOLY SHIT HE POSTED VIDEOS AND MORE RANTS OH MY GOD.

    Edit: Screengrab of his timeline re: the shooting (not including the videos, fuck that).

      Oh God...it’s him. He quite literally just posted videos of him shooting them from his POV on his Twitter account here. I just....can’t watch.

    Watching people on Twitter scramble to set the “black thug” or “crazy white guy” narrative depending on the race of the shooter makes me want to go to Antarctica and live with the penguins forever.

      Even in penguin society, things are divided into black and white. Especially in penguin society. Racist, flightless motherfuckers.

    Here is his Twitter. Extremely disturbing tweets regarding why he did it.

      Yes. I didn’t’ get screen shots, but he said that Alison had made racist remarks to him and that Adam had gone to HR on him after working with him once. He said he filed a report to the EEOC. Prior to today, he posted dozens of photos of himself as a child and young adult.

      These two were clearly targeted. Creepy.

    First time I’ve ever seen emoticons on a linked in profile.

    And given his twitter, he is totally going to off himself. https://twitter.com/bryce_williams… (which Twitter has, thankfully shut down).

      same, on the emoticon thing. And also, first time I’ve ever gotten the chills from one smiley face placed in the right location like that. Horrible

      It clicked for me when I saw the smiley faces in the experiences section, and then I started digging through twitter to find that he was tweeting live — it was crazy for me, surreal.

      They suck and attract psychopaths. I’m pretty sure there’s a legit medical study on this somewhere. I have tons of anecdotal evidence from my years in high school.
