Shooting at UNC

[BraveUlysses]

You're totally right, it's my fault for calling you out for making such an outrageously stupid statement:

However, crimes with white victims tend to not to get media coverage because it'd be "bad PR" or "not fair", so we wouldn't even get the chance to "git to-a llynchin' " since we wouldn't even know about the crime anyway

I should know better than to expect a rational reply from anyone who thinks up shit like this.

Jalopi has a point. Back it up Brave.


No matter the motivation, this story shouldn't get national attention and is obviously serving an agenda. If these were my relatives, I would of respected their lives and their deaths by stopping this media circus.

When's the last time a minority on non-minority crime got media coverage like the recent Travon Martin, Ferguson and Garner cases? OJ Simpson? People were ready to RIOT if he got indicted. The police and politicians have pressured the media to keep minority on non-minority crimes under wraps to avoid shit like this.

But hey, at least if you disagree with this you can fall back on a non-substantial reply of "ur stupid"

Why do you think people were upset enough to protest and riot for some of these events? It's obviously more than the fact that someone died while engaged with the police.

Go ahead and move those goalposts though as it appears that you're backing down from your baseless assertion that the media is engaged in a wide-spread conspiracy suppresses coverage of crimes against white people :rofl:

Why not? I've said it before and I'll say it again: whether the killings were motivated by religious hatred or parking conflicts, the bottom line is that someone murdered 3 innocent kids in cold blood. That's kind of a big deal!

and is obviously serving an agenda

What agenda?



There's a blatantly obvious double-standard going on here:

'If a white person attacks a minority person, it shouldn't be reported on or covered in the news because it's not important and race plays no part.'

'If a minority person attacks a white person, it gets covered up because race clearly was an issue and there's a conspiracy.'

See how silly that is?

[jalopi]

'If a white person attacks a minority person, it definitely gets reported on or covered in the news because if it didn't there would be riots.'

'If a minority person attacks a white person, it gets covered up or ignored because if the case was brought into the limelight, any sort of sentencing would be construed as unfair, unjust or racist in the eyes of the minority population and would cause civil unrest [read: rioting]. It is in the interest of the police and politicians to prevent incidents like this'

FTFY. And you're right, it is a ridiculous, silly double standard. However, unfortunately, this is how things work in this country. Politicians know that most white Americans are simply too lazy or can't be bothered to riot, whereas minorities get fucking angry and do riot, so why not appease the more violent/malcontent masses?

Case example: Travon Martin and that kid from Ferguson got national attention, yet this fucking tragedy didn't. There is NO MENTION AT ALL of the race of the perpetrator or the victim in this article. The only way you'd know is if you saw the pictures. But switch the skin color and you'd have a fucking national disaster on your hands. The minority crowd would be screaming for blood, the perpetrator would be painted as a neo-natzi racist demonspawn by the media (because that's literally the only reason whites commit crimes on non-whites these days, right?) instead of the more accurate description of simply being a deranged psychopath. If media coverage isn't biased on who commits violence on who in this country I'm a monkey's uncle

Now you're not even trying to hide the fact that you're racist.

I suggest you tone it down.

Dude that's not racist, that's the cold hard truth. Be honest with yourself - is that statement wrong? *not morally, I mean factually

How are you possibly claiming this didn't get national attention when you're fucking posting a link to CNN?

The dude was arrested and convicted in less than 6 months, to life in prison. Are you trying to say that the system failed to put someone in jail?

I can't even figure out what you're really complaining about other than you seem to be really upset that they didn't spell out that he's black, but instead, showed a mugshot of the person who was arrested and convicted of this crime.

Are you fucking retarded? Serious question

[CorvallisBMW]

Yes it's factually wrong. And it's racist. If you can't see why, I can put you in timeout and let you think it over.

A quiet article on CNN != national media coverage. And yes, I am really upset that this story didn't garner as much attention as a thug getting killed after attacking a police officer/neighborhood watch guy

And just to set things straight, no, I don't hate black people. Also, I'm not from around here and probably not what some of you would consider "white"



What I do hate, though, is the way race is handled/viewed in this country. It's fucking stupid and extremists (I'm looking at you Brave) do NOT help when they enable and normalize the double standards set by the American media/justice system when it comes to race. Equality will ONLY come when all are truly treated equally.

I didn't even bring up race in this whole thread you worthless shitlord.

You're the one demanding a double standard when you complain that it didn't get enough coverage based on what...that there was no riots?

How do you even quantify that it didn't get enough coverage? Because it didn't appease your high standards of journalism coverage? not enough google search results? not enough coverage based off what you remember from watching the tv?

The answer is: you don't have any sort of standard and you can't even quantify how much coverage a given topic really receives or deserves to receive.

Brave, I have no idea how you haven't been banned yet. From what I've seen in the few P&R threads I've (mistakenly) stumbled into, you don't come into threads to discuss things or argue - you come into threads to start shit with people you disagree with. You are literally the definition of a troll... I refuse to feed you any further.

If only I had posting standards like you, P&R's standard bearer, jalopi, who makes statements that he can't prove and turns into a crybaby when he gets called out on it.

You brought race into the thread and you have the audacity to claim that I'm perpetuating it because I called you out for making blatantly false claims.

[Dozyproductions]

Im not agreeing on the conspiracy party but man, don't you think it's silly to think that every murder of what you're proposing gets covered. So if a murder happens in San Diego, where I live, you want to know about it regardless of race? Or are you so caught up in race that you NEED to know about it. The analogy of that would be one of those people slow down when they pass an accident on the freeway. It doesn't concern you and its dangerous. I mention dangerous because it is to get so caught up in such thinking and makes people go into tribal mode instead using proper rational. The rest of this country, beyond certain cops (thats imo), is as racist as you think based off of one redneck.

Race = religion for the sake of this post.
