In reply to the discussion: Two French police officers hurt during raid linked to school killings [View all]alp227
(32,185 posts)5. Initial reports speculated that shooter was a white supremacist
because the shooter wore a camera, like Anders Breivik did (http://www.globalpost.com/dispatches/globalpost-blogs/europe/murders-france-more-detailsless-clarity)
if you google white supremacist toulouse shooting you won't get too many reliable sources and in fact some forums whose names I'd rather not mention.
in fact i even listened to "The Savage Nation" on monday (audio below) and heard Michael Savage (who is Jewish) dismissing this speculation and instead argued that a radical Muslim probably did the shootings. Given my views towards Savage/RW talk radio I dismissed his claims but it turns out he was right:
He also lied about Obama not saying anything about the shooting when in fact, the National Security Council did issue a statement, presumably before Savage went on air (his show is on 6-9pm ET).
