Headline News just showed a rerun of this story from 2005:

I wonder how they’d react if you said “Waste of ammo.”

I’m stunned CNN would report this...

CNN’s traditional position is to hide black violence... pretend it doesn’t exist... or blame it on white victims.

I think your emotions got ahead of your thoughts here. Not to worry, happens to all of us.

What did I say that was inaccurate?

The white man displayed microaggression against the three yutes. The one yute only wanted to use his cell phone, the white man declined. This was a microinsult to the yute. Furthermore, by not expressing an opinion of Michael Brown, the white man committed microinvalidation which led to the microassault. The white man then tried to assert his white privilege and then it really got bad.

Did you even bother to re-read your post? You said any instance of ‘black on white’ crime is shouted from the rooftops by the media, which is hardly the case. Unless ‘black on white’ crime means whites attacking blacks in your world. In mine, it does not.

Well, it’s not obvious which of my posts you were referring to, but yes, I did mean to write “white on black crimes get shouted from the rooftops by the media”, not black on white. Should have been clear from the context. Unfortunately, FR doesn’t have an edit feature once you post.

When I wrote

Seems to be increasingly the case, and keep in mind that the media tries to keep stories like this [black on white crime] under wraps (whereas every possible case of black on white crime, however dubious, gets shouted from the rooftops).

, it should be clear from the context that I meant to say "whereas every possible case of white on black crime, however dubious, gets shouted from the rooftops." Thanks to "Company Man" for pointing this out.
