The one with a potentially WASP name: the media floats the idea he is a "disturbed individual", with not one mention of "terrorism" in the article.The NBC evening "news" is now available for viewing on line.

Now, every time this guy applies for a job, and the employer does a net search on him, he's going to see the media calling him a head case, over and over, for the rest of his life. I hope he gets a lawyer and sues the pants of the media for defamation, because the media was in a rush to provide an excuse for a white person doing something horrific.
