3 Killed by Louisville Gunman Wearing ‘Justice for Breonna Taylor’ T-Shirt

Cassandra Fairbanks reports at Gateway Pundit:

A black male walked into a Louisville bar owned by a retired police officer and shot three random people at point blank range on Friday night — while wearing a Justice for Breonna Taylor shirt.
The suspect was smiling from ear to ear as he was arrested for the shooting at Bungalow Joe’s Bar and Grill.

National media are ignoring the evidence of racial motive in this apparent terrorist attack. Bar owner Joe Bishop is quoted by WDRB-TV:

According to Bishop, it was a normal Friday night at Bungalow Joe’s when a man walked up to the restaurant and shot three customers, all men, who were sitting in the patio area at point-blank range.
“Nobody had ever seen this guy before,” Bishop said, referring to the shooter. “It was a totally random act.”
The men did not exchange words “at any point in time” before the shooting, according to Bishop.
“Social media is full of people saying this happened and that happened and wanted to get political with it; there was nothing political about what happened,” he added.

We shall see what further evidence of motive police are able to develop, but there are photos of the shooter in handcuffs wearing that T-shirt, which would seem to be sufficient evidence. Don’t expect CNN to send any camera crews to Louisville to cover this story.

UPDATE: The Louisville Courier-Journal reports that Friday’s four homicides — the three at Bungalow Joe’s and a fourth unrelated shooting — bring the city’s murder total to a record high:

The four deaths overnight brought this year’s criminal homicide count to 121, according to a Courier Journal review of LMPD data. The Courier Journal reached out to the Louisville Metro Police Department to confirm that total, but an LMPD spokesperson didn’t respond
Louisville’s previous record for murders was reported in 2016, when LMPD investigated 117 homicides.
“This is a tragic milestone,” Mayor Greg Fischer said in a statement. “We have lost far too many people to this senseless violence, and I grieve with those directly impacted — the mothers, fathers, sons and daughters of those killed — and those indirectly impacted — the community as a whole, which also has suffered great loss.”

But the only death that matters to the national media is Breonna Taylor.
