Why on earth was this story relegated to chat?
Are you not familiar with the story?
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1747488/posts
3 white college girls beaten severely by a black mob of a dozen chanting racial slurs, one may lose sight in an eye, lost most of her teeth and had more than a dozen broken bones in her face. Several incidents of gangs intimidating witnesses, a lawyer forces one witness to describe her car in court and a day later that witness's car is totaled by gang members as an intimidation act.
Plus the fact that the national media has ignored this story even though if it were a white gang attacking black girls the coverage would be neverending. Given how much nat'l news has been devoted lately to Michael Richards, Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton (wedding shooting), the lack of coverage on this is a story in and of itself. The media double-standard for hate crimes is certainly political.
I don't even know how to tell when something has been moved to chat.
I can't believe this story belongs in "chat." I am shocked that this story went there. Don't people understand that if we live in a society where some people may commit violent crimes with impunity and no one will even report on it, it hurts us all, no one more so than the poor blacks having to live with these hoods? It can take generations to erase a culture of hate (please see "Palestinians"). When this same kind of hate brews in our own culture, is this not news? Is this not more important than what Britney Spears wears under her skirts?
Thank you for speaking out, media coverage this story is a national shame,Fox news and Rush included.
