The same weekend of the Santa Barbara machete and gun murders, three people were murdered and one injured in a single shooting in Myrtle Beach South Carolina. As of yesterday (May 27) the police had made no arrests and had not publicly identified suspects. Another five shootings in Myrtle Beach the same weekend injured seven more people.
The Myrtle Beach shootings, during Black Biker Week, are receiving no national press coverage and no expressions of outrage by progressive anti-gun activists and organizations. Likewise, where is the outrage about the 6 murdered and 16 injured in Chicago the same weekend by shootings? Somehow these murders don’t fit the progressive narrative.
There is a “double standard” going on.
