As of press time, two suspects have been compromised, with one still at large, after a shootout with police. The identification of those captured has not been released, but were described as one male and one female. As Fox News updated its Facebook members with further details of the shooting on various Dec. 2 posts, the conservative members left controversial comments.
"Sorry, but the longer the media goes without telling us the race of the shooters, the more certain we can be that they aren"t white," one member wrote. Others agreed, stating, "They are being real quiet about the race of these people" and "You"re telling me this Police Chief knows two suspects are dead at the scene and "doesn"t know" race or ethnicity? Complete c**p." Another member was quoted as commenting, "notice that no one is telling us about the suspects....so we know they are NOT white!!!"
Blame was than put on President Obama, who various members blamed for the recent attacks. "Obama gets on TV and said mass shooting do not take place in any other country but ours, what the h**l does he think just happened in Paris, all he know how to do is put our country down. I am so sick of him , why is he still in office."
Other fans put the blame on Muslims, stating "FK"n Muslims," and running with an unconfirmed report that one of the shooters was named Farooq Saeed. The FBI is not currently ready call the incident an act of terrorism.
