I suppose... it's Obama's fault that some nutty white guy went ape shit
Could very well be. Obama has made race relations worse.
This guy could have been that angry white male you guys always tell us about. Maybe he was suffering from White Rage.
In the USA, black rage refers to a purported psychological phenomena and innovative defense proposed, but not used, for the 1994 Colin Ferguson mass murder trial. Ferguson's lawyers (William Kunstler) argued that he should not be held criminally liable, for actions which broke the law, because he was overcome with rage by his perceived society's racist discrimination against Black people.
Just change that to white men.
This guy prolly went to a government school, then more guilt and hostility and PC at a university and now he's in the workplace full of Affirmative Action. And when he heard that racist, kill the Whitey, kill the Crackers rap "music" it all became too much and he just snapped.
Plus he had been drinking. So he should get a lesser sentence.
