This is an outcry by a very challenged young man.

[Proud liberal 80]

Muslim = terrorist
Black man = thug
Hispanic = illegal

White guy = challenged young man

1. Yeah. Well....no

Fuck him.

[Eko]

2. What a freaking travesty.

[brush]

3. He was a terrorist thug commiting illegal bombings.

And thank God he blew himself the fuck up when he was about to be apprehended.

4. A young man committed to conflict resolution through peaceful means

Conditt didn't appear to be motivated by terrorism or hate, but the confession investigators found on his cellphone was "the outcry of a very challenged young man" dealing with problems in his personal life, said Austin Police Chief Brian Manley.

Manley forgot to add: "It's a shame I didn't get a chance to buy him a meal at Burger King or something"

8. Chief, you're breakin' my heart with that deep insight of yours.

[mshasta]

5. Hispanic-illegals-rapist-murders-taking jobs

is always the same with white males..privilege

[meow2u3]

6. Officer, you're racism is showing yet again

Why is it when a white guy blows up minority neighborhoods, terrifying the community, he's a "challenged young man", but when a black person or a Muslim does the same thing, he's either a criminal or a terrorist who deserves to be locked up without a trial?

Does that officer even hear himself?

[highplainsdem]

7. Already seeing a lot of outrage on Twitter about that excuse-mongering

and the apparent bigotry behind it.

[Nay]

9. So the black and Hispanic people targeted first were on a LIST?? And how many

more of the people on the list are POC? Plenty, I'll bet.

As for why he planted the trip wire bomb in the white neighborhood, I can suspect he was just trying to confuse the issue. I'm sure his list didn't contain an entry that said "random whites in fancy neighborhood."

10. To add insult to injury:

KVUE responds to closed captioning error

During our breaking news coverage of the Austin bombings, the closed captioning text included a typographical error in which the words “this monkey” appeared in a sentence about 17-year-old bombing victim Draylen Mason.

We want to be clear that this typographical error was NOT made by any employee of KVUE. We contract with VITAC -- an outside company -- to live caption our newscasts. We are taking this mistake very seriously and we are heartsick about this terrible error.

We apologize to Draylen’s family and to our community.

We have demanded an explanation and an apology to Draylen’s family, and VITAC is complying.

[Nay]

12. Jesus. Christ.

[boston bean]

13. OMFG. That pisses me off. i am seeing red!

[lunasun]

14. VITAC

15. IIRC, a "typo" is an unintentionally misspelled word.

I am trying to think of what other 6 letter word, referring to a human being, if misspelled, would end up as "monkey."

Haven't found one.

[Dawson Leery]

11. White Male Privilege is real.

So it does not matter that this bastard targeted minority neighborhoods?
It does not matter that he was part of the far right?

[magicarpet]

16. A young.man in great turmoil....

.... who hated anything not white and was a religious Nazi MAGA Fascist.

[BaileyBill]

17. To paraphrase Kinky Friedman about Charles Whitman...

There are still a lot of home-schoolers out there.
