A white priest at St. Louisâ Christ Church Cathedral asserted that the arsonist had racist motives.

Can you imagine how we must have been so easily
manipulated by press self-censorship before the net?
This is getting so irritating. I correct what I can catch in preview, but don’t always see it.
Has anyone else clicked on the link to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch story? The headline is there but the text of the article is blocked out ... it is just me or do others get the same thing?
Every. Single. Time.
If a white person had set the fires the media would have called all white people racist..but now that it turns out that a black man set the fires they call him “Mentally ill” gee I dont hear CNN, MSNBC or the rest of the liberal media reporting the TRUTH about these fires

I’m still getting just grey lines where the text would be.
When will he be in invited to the White House?
I heard they had arrested a suspect on the radio. They did not mention his race, so I immediatly thought, most likely a black guy.
The predictability of the media cartel is becoming tiresome.
He was correct, if not in the way he believed he would be.

Yes. We have been lied to, mislead, and screwed over for decades. The elites call it “manufacturing consent”.
It has destroyed much of American culture and had created the welfare state.
You’ll never hear another word about those churches being torched.

I didn’t realize that the KKK is so Politically Correct that they have an Affirmative Action Program.
I’m sure we won’t be seeing this on the news.
