I doubt very much he was harassed and bullied, just maybe he's delusional and that was his perception. This didn't happen over night and I'm sure he has been angry for a long time. Everything isn't racism, GET IT!
Interesting how without knowing any of the people, never have worked for the company, etc....you "doubt very much" he was harassed. Are you psychic? Do you have special powers that give you insight into the true reality of questionable scenarios? If not, how can assume to know this guy was lying? This is what I find interesting.....why so many people here fiercely deny the charge without knowing ANYTHING AT ALL about the victims.
Yes, everything isn't racism, but some things ARE....get it????

Well so far the only ones who say/said it was racism were him and his girlfriend. No other proof of racism has come to light.
Because mgmt and the union called him in and showed him the tape.
OK, let's think about this:
Mgmt and the union called him in and showed him the tape so it must exist (which, BTW, I'm NOT disputing)
Thornton showed his girl cell phone pics of racist graffiti and let her overhear a conversation where he was referred to as a n!gger...but folks here fiercely deny such things exist.
Why is it so easy to believe one thing but not the other? Is it because it could very well prove that he was harassed? Just trying to understand the reasoning of some folks.

It's early days yet. And if I worked for a company where 8 of my coworkers were murdered and everyone was in mourning, I WOULD NOT step forward to support any of the gripes the murderer had.....can you imagine the amount of backlash that type of thing would make? I would not want to be the person stepping forward to say " Well, I know you guys are hurting because your loved one is dead, but Thornton kinda had a point...they were harassing him". Yeah, not gonna happen...unless maybe later and anonymously.
If I were running that warehouse I would not become concerned about somebody "stealing" a beer unless the theivery was big enough to matter. Like truckloads of beer.
This is also a reason to always be alert and armed. If, as I suspect, the company forbid guns in the workplace, IMHO, they have full responsibility for protecting everyone they disarmed. The company owes the families of the slain for the company's negligence.

Agreed...can't believe they let this guy in for what was essentially a firing meeting. And then once he was fired, let him excuse himself and come back in the room!

I have seen black people scream racism, just because they were asked to do some actual work.

All white people know what other white people think and believe. Through research they have learned to read minds of other white folks thousands of miles away. That is how they know white racism does not exist and hence that blacks complaining of racial harrasment are just lying. They are advanced humans. That is scenario one. Scenario two is that white folks have so little respect for black folks that they don't believe a damn thing black folks say. Scenario three is that white folks are on a mission to cover up and hide white racism so that it cannot be used to legitimize programs, policies and position that they are antithetical to. Scenario four is a combination of two or more of the previous scenarios.
I guess that Thornton felt ENTITLED to having that free beer. And it wasn't for personal use, he was reselling it. He got caught and realized that it would be very difficult to find a new job and he wouldn't be getting any UE benefits, so after his killing spree, the loser decided to play the race card on his way out.
