COLUMBIA, S.C. — The gunman who killed five people including a prominent doctor in South Carolina was former NFL player Phillip Adams, who killed himself early Thursday, according to a source who was briefed on the investigation. The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak publicly, said Adams’ parents live near the doctor’s home in Rock Hill, and that he had been treated by the doctor. The source said Adams killed himself after midnight with a .45-caliber weapon. CORRECTIONS*

Media is grieving terribly. Not for the victims who are white (they’re okay with that), but because the shooter wasn’t.

Another hair trigger violent black man choosing violence as a 'solution' to problems, and blaming others for his problems. It ALWAYS has to be someone else's fault. I'd assume that he blamed 'whitey' for his medical problems, not understanding that certain broken joints are never going to function at top effectiveness again after a severe trauma. That's just the way it is.
When I was a young man, I was in a violent crash and severely damaged a knee. Despite best efforts of orthopedics of the 1970s, and months of hospitalization, the knee was never quite right afterwards. I was pleased to be able to walk nearly normally, but knew the joint was permanently fragile, with limited mobility.
Half a century later, technology had advanced to where an artificial knee was installed, and as a minor medical miracle, that knee, a progressively more painful part of my life for half a century is once again working normally and a joy to just forget and use without pain.
And I never blamed the docs half a century ago, unlike this violent idiot. A sad end for the doctor and others, and good riddance of this vicious, hateful, murderous thug.

FTA...'Thursday, a few sheriff’s deputies were posted near the Lesslie home, which is far beyond an arched stone gate, up a long paved driveway and not visible from the road. The Adams home, roughly a mile down the road, is a modest, one-story brick house with several cars in the driveway.'
So what does that have to do with the murders? The corrupt media trying to get sympathy for the black alleged murderer and the rich White racists might have deserved being murdered because they lived in a luxurious home when the murderer lived in a modest brick home?

Such a tragedy.
It will be interesting to see how the media plays this one. A privileged black football hero kills a prominent, respected and loved physician and family who spent his life helping people.

I think it is time to keep crime statistics on current and former NFL players. Their attention to being woke should maybe shift to getting their own house in order.

I noticed the Navy corpsman who shot several dropped from the media — black and Muslim, shocker.

On CNN site, story updated at 12:50 Eastern with ID of shooter. Deliberately slow.

Those .45s are dangerous and need to be banned. They like to kill people with one punch and don't need no stinkin' high-capacity magazine. Come on, Joe, wake up and, by the way, this gun was no ghost.

The bodies of the Lesslie family and some service people who’d been at the home were found yesterday. A manhunt for young black man (with a description of his clothing) didn’t turn up Adams’s body at his nearby parents’ home until this morning.

The media will drop this faster than Hunter Biden dropping a bar fly with a hot case of genital warts.

One angle that should be pursued is that if Adams was a patient of the Doctor, did the Doctor refuse to prescribe an excess supply of opioids or other pain killers to Adams?

Condolences to the family. Everything is somebody else's fault and everybody has an excuse.
I care about the victims who didn't see this coming.
