The authorities have mentioned him by name - pic sort of looks like him, but the videos are first person.
Most likely. I can't see him posting those horrible videos just to delete his account shortly afterwards.
He also said something about "she made racist comments". Not that that's a reason either.
Really wish they had deleted the videos before I watched them. Horrible horrible stuff.
Yeah, that's a reason to go to HR, actually! Especially in the US where, to my knowledge, these things are taken very seriously.
Facebook shut it down, too. I think that's a good decision.
I actually hit play on one of them before thinking, nah, I don't want to do that. Glad I stopped myself in time. Curiosity is a powerful thing but none of us need shit like that in our heads.
Same here. Stopped on the first glimpse of the reporters.
I'm not sure why I kept watching, I guess I just thought there was no actual way he'd filmed shooting them and then uploaded it.
Size of the country is irrelevant, if a Government wants something badly enough they can make it happen. Sadly, the Americans have never been fussed about making things better. Which is why this happens. The population of the UK is 60 million people, that's hardly a small country is it? Yet gun crime hardly registers compared to America.
The shooter's first person footage is on LiveLeak now. I won't post the link.The authorities have mentioned him by name - pic sort of looks like him, but the videos are first person.
1st video - him walking up to the victims - 25 or so seconds
2nd video - shooting
the whole thing looked surreal - like COD or any other first person shooting game
An accomplice?
No, thats his real name. Bryce is his work name.

Once he posted the stuff online - there was only ever going to be one ending to this story.
Only one that looked relevant was him tweeting 'Alison made racist comments'.
What a coward.
I don't want to be cold and mean but he really could have skipped a step and just shot himself without shooting anyone else. It would have made far more sense.
He also said something like 'they hired her instead' and 'went to HR about me'.
Thats why I said IF, and some people riding jetskis should be arrested
Why they didn't see him beats me.
No - you're still failing to make a reasonable argument here. If people have to take jetski lessons why not guns? It doesn't add up. No one is taking a jetski to kill another person.
About crime in general?
In fairness to the reporters I'd imagine news reporters get A LOT of background "characters" and they probably just come to terms with ignoring them. Look at the amount of live reports on any news channel and there's often people dancing right next to them that they just ignore.
And not everybody gets a gun to kill someone.
