NOPE, YOU’RE ALL WRONG WITH THE IMPLICATIONS AND ACCUSATIONS.

All I’m saying is that Big Media likes to foment, and it’s VERY INTERESTING that Racist Big Media is not saying anything about race and made nothing of it in the article.

I’m asking the big WHY — why didn’t this media play the race card?

I didn’t even say or imply she did anything to deserve it.

Wow, such savagery..... I DID read the article before posting.

Your personal condescension was really offensive.

Apparently I’m not the only one who misinterpreted your statement. Shouldn’t we be HAPPY that they did not make a big deal of the color of her skin? Isn’t that the kind of reporting we WANT?

As for insinuating you may be racist in your attitude I apologize — unfortunately it’s so commonplace nowadays for people “on the right” to be accused of bigotry that statements which are unclear, of the sort you posted, only feeds into the hysteria. In my personal experience, even here at FR unfortunately there are a lot of comments that end up being thinly veiled - many of which I think are posted not by “true Freepers”, but by agent provocateurs.

As for my condescension towards you, I apologize that I offended you. I have no tolerance for true “racist” bigots, so I tend to treat them with the same disrespect as they show others. In this case, I was obviously wrong. In the future, it might be a good idea to be a little more clear with what you’re trying to convey.

Go back and read your first post. I found it confusing and thought LR was right to ask what the hell you were saying.

Although he was a little more gracious than I was.

Please note: I was responding to post #18 of yours, and not the explanation you gave later on the thread. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said what I did.

You rang for "savagery?" I'm going to enjoy what follows the bond collapse and repudiation of debt ahead of us. Scum-sucking local, yocal socialists all over our country (ruined by the bipartisan socialists) are going to be out of work and no longer robbing us. As they resort to more direct gang activities, they'll be the hunted "perps."

Friends, starve the beast. Be frugal. Become more self-sufficient.

I find it very telling that you’re more interested in condemning the activity of the media—who did not taze a deaf woman, than you are in condemning those officers, who did taze a deaf woman.

Indeed. How DARE the media EVER speak against King Barry’s Knights of the Realm?

Conservatives don’t WANT skin color to be an issue raised by the media.

It is a liberal desire to expect the media to make skin color an issue.
