It’s going to get ugly once Andrew Breitbart gets wind of this: Omar Thornton, who shot eight coworkers dead and injured two others in Connecticut Tuesday, cracked because of racial discrimination, according to his family. Thornton was shown a video of himself stealing beer from his employer, Hartford Distributor, calmly signed his resignation letter, then pulled out a gun and shot people. Thornton was black in a largely white company, and his cousin said his employer was prejudiced. His longtime girlfriend’s mother said Thornton found a picture of a noose and a racial epithet scrawled on a bathroom wall. A union official says Thornton never filed a complaint over racism. Thornton killed himself after the shooting.
