(Vanity) Columbus attack getting very little coverage

[Uhhh]

There hasn't been a new update on the Columbus attack in two days. Just that the fbi is looking into it. Great. Is this the beginning of the country accepting this sort of thing? Have we become numb like Obama would say? Are Americans going to ever stand up and demand that dangerous refugees/immigrants be removed from country? Is the media sweeping this attack under the rug because there wasn't a gun involved or because of agenda?

One other distinction Columbus, Ga., doesn’t share with Columbus (and for this you can be happy) is that Columbus (after Minneapolis) has the largest concentration of Somali immigrants in America. Frankly, I’m surprised more of these attacks haven’t taken place.

Almost took a job there (synovus systems). Seemed like a decent place.

muzzy attacks Israeli: do you really think the police are going to say the true motive and the media is going to hype the attack 24/7?

If I lived in Columbus, Ga., I might see your point. But numbers tend to sort these things out. And a city with an MSA of nearly 2 million (and growing) doesn’t need a state name attached for the geographic presumption to be correct.

Reminds me of a line from a movie, I think Smokey and the Bandit, where a character referred to his address as "Dallas, USA".

While the Columbus terrorism received little coverage, from my point of view it has receive far more coverage than the two girls KILLED WITH A GUN ON AN ARIZONA SCHOOL GROUNDS.

When the Arizona story was buried I knew it somehow did not fit the let’s narrative. As we found out it did not in a big way. They say with your story on the Columbus terrorism. The media quickly found out it did not advance the narrative they want to advance and so they ignor it.

[tang-soo]

That’s terrible. I have not heard about the story.

Obviously the owner was asking for it. /s

[Uhhh]

while I’m thankful for the news media and the free press and the work they do to get the info out there yadda yadda, it s annoying the crap they regurgitate while ignoring important things.
