    Shane Tamura was named by sources as the shooter who stormed 345 Park Avenue, a swanky 44-floor building and opened fire, killing one police officer and at least four civilians.

    Yeah not like those (at least) four other non-police civilians mattered or had families or dreams. Good job NY Post for demonstrating that the media considers a cop more of a person than the rest of us 🙄

      Conservative media does value cop lives more than the rest of us, and they feel no shame or remorse in that.

      But they don’t care all that much about cop lives either. All they want to do is sell the idea that there’s a deranged communist-liberal war on cops so the fascist enforcement arm can be excused in moving to the next phase of seizing power: blanket, violent crackdowns.

    Tamura had been a stand-out running back at Granada Hills Charter High School in California, according to an old interview he did with a local news outlet.

    He’s 44 years old…

    I feel like that’s thrown in because the NFL is there.

    But there’s also a trillion dollar investment firm, Blackstone. Which are about as cartoonishly evil as you just imagine when you saw the T in trillion. And they occupied over 50% of the building.

    Theres also Chase bank as well.

      It happened in a building with 44 floors but the dude was 27 years old. Not 44 years old. Not sure how it matters just figured id reply with the correct information provided in the article.

      Edited for correction on 44 floors.
