It appears that these were 4 separate shootings. He didn't approach a group of people. He stopped in 4 different locations and shot 5 individuals.

That is horrific. What is wrong with people? Prayers for the families. I hope they catch this guy soon.

Probably a prime candidate for the Oklahoma death penalty.

Personally, I do, too. I just don't know how. Obviously there's no *actual* connection, but in someone's crazy head....

I don't know about a "link" but, could very well be some racists who just want to make a statement.
Also, for the conspiracy theorists, this could be an inside job to jump-start the "American Spring".

The white kid set on fires by blacks now this? I hope this doesn't spur more crazy heads from either side to start more trouble. Sad stuff.
