I pose the following questions after the whitewashing of the fact that the ringleader who took part in last week's shooting was an illegal.
Freepers why was this guy let go by not one but two judges?
Why was he in this country for 16 years as illegally?
Where the hell are Jackson and Sharpton on this one, if this had fact been 4 Whites or Police Officers, the City of Newark would be bracing for riots and ever Black Leader would be in front of a mic claiming; "No justice No Peace."
If the killers had been White, reporters would been questioning President Bush on what actions will he take to conduct a federal investigation, the Democrats would put the Congressional Black Caucus out there to tear down and blame Bush and the Department of Justice for not protecting this kids from a racist police force or (Conservative)White(Republicans). The leading Republican Candidates would be questions about the case as well, while the Democrats would be looking to score brownie points.
Unlike with the Don Imus case which received 24 news coverage for 5 days, barely a peep has been said about this case. In the Imus Case at least he did not shoot 4 people and kill 3.
Finally, Where are those who called us Conservatives "racist," for opposing amnesty for illegals?
These were good kids from the right side of the tracks either in College or looking to go to College, but because of the failure of local, state and federal government, 3 will not realize that dream.
The shootings and the resulting deaths shows that the press will simply bury a story when it does not fit its template, so it will not be covered outside of a few soundbites.
“There are about 140 patients who received roughly $4 million dollars for un-reimbursed medical care. As it turns out, they did not qualify for free treatment because they resided outside of Dallas County. So the hospital is going to sue them! Illegals get it all free! But U. S citizens who live outside of Dallas County get sued! How stupid is this?
As if that isn’t annoying enough, the illegal immigrant patients are actually complaining about hospital staff not speaking Spanish. In this AP story, the author speaks with a woman who is upset that she had to translate comments from the hospital staff into Spanish for her husband. The doctor was trying to explain the situation to the family and the mother was forced to translate for her husband who only spoke Spanish. This was apparently a great injustice to her.”
And the politicians wonder why we are angry........
I will pass it on, thanks.
You are right that there are swarthy people in every nationality. Spain has a lot of Moorish blood, so there are dark people there, even though the average Spaniard is a lot lighter than the average Mexican or Peruvian. Even in Ireland there are the 'Black Irish'....
So, yeah, about the same.
I had hunch your response would be less than honest.
If you're going to accuse me of dishonesty, at least have the common courtesy to point out an instance of same.
I based my statement on your own response.
If these 4 young blacks would have been shot execution style by a white person, as I have said earlier, it would have received 100 times more news coverage. The leftist, communist, liberals, and the racist black so-called leadership would have went into a hysterical rant against racist whites...It would be typically followed by a Time Magazine cover page story on racism, and undoubtedly be mentioned by some our current crop of presidential candidates who would seek to suddenly make racism a new top priority.
I'm not sure your fooling anyone here, but you're certainly not fooling me with your response.
I remember Bob Grant's book from years ago about how the media handles this. He had a scorecard about what trumps what. I remember how accurate he was. White kills black= national scandal. Black kills white= local story, race not factor. Man kills wife= man bad. Woman kills man= man abusive, deserved it. Gay person murdered= society responsible because of homophobia. Gay rapes child= local story, sexual orientation not factor unless Catholic priest, then Catholic church responsible. Being gay trumps everything. Reggie White was demonized for being "anti-gay" despite being black. If these black victims were gay, THEN the race/immigration status of the perp would be reported fervently.
I thought Mayor Booker was considered a more centrist leader who was supposed to reject the left wing, race baiting ways of the past. If that is the case then he must dismantle this policy of making Newark a safe haven for illegals.
If the killer had been a white male, there’d be a lot more hand-wringing, (editorials and “news” stories), over racism, hate crimes, gun control, child abuse, poverty, and the gap between rich and poor.
Great comments and great questions.
Terry Anderson asked many of the same questions on his radio show on Sunday, August 12th.
Terry is a great American. Here is a link to his radio show’s website: http://www.theterryandersonshow.com/ .
