you think any of the 3 networks will air that footage on nightly newscast?
ask yourself why won't they?
Why would they?
There are 14,000 homicides a year in this country along with 1,400,000 violent crimes. And a whole lot more other crimes. Those are basic FBI stats for decades.
Unless she really was in a psychotic state, she's certainly a terrible excuse for a human being. But really, 14,000 homicides a year = 38 and change a day. Why should this event, no matter how horrible, be on all the networks? What about the other 37 we could expect today, on average?
And while you're thinking about how to answer that, think about this. This was the OP:
Wow!
I'll bet she's a poor oppressed brilliant black woman who has had enough of those stupid old white people!:lamo
We need to have a national discussion about racism in America.
The OP made no argument for why this was motivated by "racism" and no explanation of why he thought saying it was racism was hilarious. You didn't call the OP out for trying to make this tragic crime about race. Instead....this was your first reaction (the other reactions being to attack posters you suspected of being on the left).
when we tolerate a political party calling out segments of our society by Age Race Gender (Old White Males) vilifying them in a dehumanizing way...people can and do lash out.
Its America stop with the dehumanizing behavior....Politicians need to lead the way
The OP is conservative. You are conservative. The OP villified the criminal by race, rather than villifying them for what they did, in a dehumanizing way (as if what she did wasn't dehumanizing enough on its own).
Nobody villified the man who was killed. Yet there you are claiming that it's "Old White Males" who are villified by "Age Race Gender" in a "dehumanizing way"
Why did you behave in that fashion?
