Man in Scarf Mugs For The Camera During A Mall Shooting Press Conference, fixed link

http://www.uproxx.com/webculture/2014/01/scarf-hipster-md-mall-shooting/



The big news on CNN yesterday was Justin Bieber and the fatal mall shooting in Columbia, MD that left 3 dead and several wounded. Let that sink in for a second. From The Washington Post:

It happened just after 11 a.m., about 25 miles northeast of Washington. A gunman opened fire on the mall’s second level, killing two employees of Zumiez, a clothing store for skateboarders and snowboarders, Howard County police said. Minutes later, when officers arrived, they found the shooter dead of an apparently self-inflicted wound.

Police said his body was laden with ammunition and a shotgun was on the floor. In addition, they said, his bag, which was found in the store, contained what they described as two crude devices that seemed to be an attempt to use fireworks to make explosives.

Another tragic incident and another example of our current media information failings. But you might be asking, “why are you talking about this on an entertainment blog?” The answer of course is the gentleman douche in the scarf above.
