No. You do not have the power to offend me. You automatically assumed the perp was black without reading the article. So don’t get all high and mighty about TRUTH. You are no threat to me since you seem to be emotional and judgemental. No one appointed you a moral leader of conservative thought. I should have been a little more truthful with my post to you. In all honesty, I find you annoying. But you do have a right to be annoying.

I did assume the perp was black; I also stated if "I had to guess," since the article did not mention a description of either perp. As you yourself mentioned the article didn't mention race or description of either perp - that's what my guess was based on. I was wrong. I admitted that.

You wrongly supposed that I didn't read the article before posting.

I never claimed to be the moral leader of conservative thought. I wasn't posting out of emotion, or judgement of you - and even posted that I WASN'T attacking (ie judging you).

I was trying to have a rational adult conversation with you and stated my opinion that glossing over facts and blaming the Amish doesn't help anything as in my opinion is tacit approval, whether intended or unintended.

Where I will be judgmental is this - it is apparently too much to discuss anything of substance and easier to blame the Amish or attack another poster of being a 'self appointed moral judge' vice a back-and-forth regarding the actual issues of media bias, hiding the identity of violent criminals, infringement of gun ownership, and the racist targeting of white and/or Christian America.

It is apparently too much to discuss why it is easier for even conservatives to identify perpetrators of violent crime. As I even stated my post was directed TO you (as in for discussion) and not AT you (as in an emotional or judgmental attack).

I understand you were kidding about and making a joke - I don't fault you for that. My posts were more of a question to you as to WHY the meme seemed to have more traction than statement of fact, or supposition based on trends and I expressed my frustration with such...... I really did want your opinion on that topic.
