Tulsa Shootings - 5 shot - all victims black

Deadly Friday night shootings in T-Town. Tulsa police are searching for a white man in a white truck. According to surviving witnesses, the gunman stopped them to ask directions, then shot them. 3 victims have died.

Local news: http://www.newson6.com/story/1735714...adly-shootings

Local reports left out the race of the victims; CNN is reporting that all the victims were black.

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.
