How much coverage is this supposed to get?

More than 20 seconds.
The most valid question I see in this guy's diatribe is, "What if the roles were reversed?" I think, if you're honest with yourself, you can say for certain what would have happened if a "conservative" looney had busted in to a Planned Parenthood somewhere, obviously intent on killing multiple people, but was luckily stopped by a guard. We'd still be hearing about it every 20 minutes in the 24 hour "news" cycle. Pretty much the way Fox News is still harping on the actual incident.
I don't think the shooter is gay. All I've heard so far is that he "vehemently supports gay marriage / gay rights." I haven't yet seen an article that identifies him as gay. In fact, it's fairly homophobic for you to assume he's gay. I think you'll be getting more than 20 seconds of coverage from CBS...
