Technically, you are right. In this day and age, of total PC, however, that usually doesn’t cut the mustard. If it were a Trump supporter, the media would have crucified him 2 minutes after the story broke. Since this chump was a leftist, he could have shouted from the rooftops, that his bombs were made to kill Trump supporters, and the ass hats 🎩 in the media, would still say his motives were unclear."

I'm not happy with "this day and age" reporting. I'm not sure of this guys political views (I'm not so sure they are clear to him in fact) and they shouldn't cloud the legal system or the reporting. The police had a search warrant based on some evidence they gave to a judge implicating him in three burglaries. In the process they discovered other materials which may be/likely to be bomb related, but the prosecutors still have to show that he had criminal intent to use that material to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt.
We can not abandon due process even if our political opponents are ready and willing. It's what separates us from the armed mob and the anarchists who this person may turn out to be a part of.
Some days I feel a kinship to the "get a rope and hang 'em" bunch of FReepers. But when I think about it reasonably I just want the criminal justice system to work as designed and for reporters to report facts and remain somewhat neutral. Questioning the intelligence of a reporter when they get it right is not something I view as a good thing.
i want the justice system to work too. My point, is not about the justice system. My single, and only point, is the liberals in the media. If this reporter is a liberal, the odds are he would act like a liberal, and say exactly what he did. If it was a Trump supporter, as a liberal, he would probably report it differently. That’s my only point. I doubt, that however the dude reports it, will have any affect on the prosecutor.
