Amazing!! Simply Amazing!! In this case it was a white man attached by 4 black youths and no mention of race. Can you imagine the uproar, protests, etc if the races were reversed??

Ironically, I just finished watching the original “Death Wish” where Bronson blows away four subway muggers. Where are the vigilantes when we need them?

You are right. I am sick and tired of this crap. It won’t even flash on the news. It is sickening. Write Rush about it. Write Sean about it; not Sena because he won’t report it because he is too worried about his ratings.

ARTICLE SNIPPET:

"Police last night said that they did not have a motive for the assault, but that it did not appear to have been a robbery. The cause of death also was unclear, and an autopsy was scheduled for today."

Wasn’t it last month that two White female college students were murdered by two black punks? Again, barely a mention of this on the news.

Unable. To get from one platform to the other at this station is ridiculously long via a deep stairwell.

Mass transit. Everything we knew it would be. Now, move along. Nothing to see here.

Well thank God he wasn't armed! Someone could have gotten hurt. Another proven example of Nutter's wisdom in seeking stronger anti-gun laws. If he had been armed there could have been as many as four casualties in the government's beloved young black sociopathic thug population, and each and every one of them is precious. After all if it weren't for thugs and a class of forcibly disarmed and helpless (preferably white) victims for the young black thugs to rob, maim and kill at their leisure, how could the police justify their existence?

Ummm Hmmmmm.....
Lemme see.....

Reading American newspapers is like reading the old Pravda (Truth) or Ivestia (News). What's important shows up in the small print at the end of the paper. The news is what you read between the lines.

Example, when newspapers report a crime committed by "youths", you know the "youths" are black most likely or hispanic.

Thank you politically correct newspapers for turning yourselves into jokes. You think you are leading opinion in this country, but everyday you show why fewer and fewer people voluntarily buy your product. There's no Truth in Ivestia and no News in Pravda. In Orwellian MSM, there's news only between the line and on the back pages.

Of course. Another innocent White is sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. This will not be called a hate crime. He’s just a typical White boy. Probably a garlic nose cracker too.
