Since it happened in Atlanta, it is only a matter of time before one of these people get blamed for this:

1.) '96 Olympic bombing suspect (a.k.a. "the Invisible Fugitive") Eric Rudolph; or

2.) That fat security guard living with his mom who got blamed for the Olympic bombing in the first place (FBI probably figures they'd look good for blaming him for something and making the charges stick this time).

3.) Jon-Benet Ramsey's parents--now living in Atlanta. I think I read somewhere where they were grooming her for an early-childhood career in daytrading after she got tired of the beauty pageant schtick.

Again, I think Geralpho could run with any of these themes for weeks. Cripes, he's still trying to pin Jon-Benet Ramsey's death on that Santa Claus dude, four years after the fact.

This is classic WHORE-aldo.. he has devoted not only Up Front Tonight but also his entire show, Rivera Live, to the shooting in Atlanta.

Whore-aldo first tried to blame the shootings on George W. Bush, then the Republicans in general. Now he wants to ban:
Guns
Bullets
Knives
Large Hand-sized rocks
Fertilizer
Moving Vans
Clubs
Day Trading and Day Traders in general
The stock market (but only when it's volatile)

Whore-aldo said some really stupid things tonight (which is not that surprising)... but he said that the shooter "snapped" when all the experts say that the shooter planned his every move and was methodical about it.

Once again CNBC will devote every free hour to covering this event and make money on it.

Dear Whore-aldo's mom... you misspelled his name.
