Dallas shooter linked to leftist revolution groups, nation of Islam?

From The American Thinker Blog:

Facts are still being gathered, but a few developments have surfaced that suggest that Dallas terrorist Micah Johnson had ties to and sympathies for the Nation of Islam, the Black Panthers, and the radical African American Defense League.

I called it. For several hours after the shooter was ID'd, the Drive-By media named the suspect, an army veteran, but did not show his picture. The media did include his quote of wanting "kill white people." I assumed it was because he was black and any pictures would only reinforce the stereotype of a thug.
