In reply to the discussion: The man who shot 5 PA cops yesterday, killing 3, is a young white male. Rightwing media is not covering the case [View all]BumRushDaShow
(160,228 posts)13. I had my local news radio station on this afternoon here in Philly and heard the press conference live.
Description was basically a white male dressed in camo who used an AR-15 style weapon to mow down 5 officers (3 ended up deceased) - all in his effort to go after an ex-girlfriend, who fled the house with her mother (and they locked the door when the left).
When the cops arrived at the house to serve the warrant, they found the door unlocked, and the shooter hauled off and started firing. The officers also fired (9mm) and one finally took him out. When LEO went through the house, they found the loon had shot and killed the ex-girlfriend's black lab with one shot.
The York County D.A. doing the presser sounded pretty broken up (I didn't turn on the TV or try to stream it - just listened on the radio).

Maybe they aren't in other areas, but everywhere I have lived most of the cops are rabid right wingers.
