They won’t talk about it for the same reason they won’t be objective in dealing with Obama’s failed presidency; it is simply politically incorrect to admit to any shortcomings in ANY people of color. The high levels of violence, the creation of the permanent welfare underclass, the lack of education despite the highest spending per student - all swept under the rug - “Nothing to see here!”.
They are not doing blacks any favors; in fact, they are treating them as though black lives don’t matter.
I grew up on Gallier Street across from the Bunny Friend.
In 1985 I ventured into that neighborhood and was almost physically ill at how Bunny Friend had deteriorated.
I then stopped in front of the house where I grew up and was simply looking at the house and remembering childhood things. The house had been well-kept/kempt.
A police car with two black officers pulled up behind me. The officers got out and asked what I was doing there. I explained to them.
They said, “Well, it is not safe for you to be in this neighborhood anymore. Follow us and we’ll get you to a safe place.”
The media is actually revealing its own extreme racism when it ignores incidents like this.
They are contributing to the racial upheaval in this country with their biased reporting.
I guess black lives only matter when it’s whites who are doing the killing. When blacks go after each other, or anyone else for that matter, it basically didn’t happen.
There have been articles on nola.com almost everyday since it happened. But no one down here cares much about it so why should anyone else. You don’t here much down here about the mother’s day shooting either.
They got into journalism to "make a difference," and they try to make that difference partly by lying and spinning, but mostly by ignoring politically incorrect stories. They don't regard this as appallingly dishonest, they regard it as compassionate and moral. As journalists, they are less than worthless.
You need to post that to a lot of threads...
Bfl
Black area, black gangs. In a typical murder, the police ask questions, witnesses answer. The cops get to the bottom of it, the person(S) are arrested and they get convicted of murder.
Inner city black crime... black gang members shoot other blacks. Afterward, a bunch of people must know some of the killers. Does anyone talk? Does anyone listen? Is it safe to talk? Do the witnesses WANT to talk?
The dirty, dirty, horrible truth is that black inner city areas don’t want external policing. Unless they are willing to embrace the rule of law and quit worrying about skin color WE (the rest of the city/state/country) can’t do jack to help them.
And unfortunately, we WON’T allow citizens in these ares to have special self defense rights that provide extra protections to them for using deadly force in these highly dangerous places. No, we can’t let the law abiding people clean the streets of the thugs... because the cops can’t.
So... how is this in any way similar to a Muslim terrorist attack? It really, truly is not the same.
Both equally tragic in cost of lives, but not the same at all.
It will get to be a lot more “the same” if we allow enclaves of Sharia law to pop up. Then it will be just like the no-go zones of inner urban areas and just as dangerous. Complete with murders the cops can’t and wont try to solve.
>> This story isn’t interesting to either liberals or the mainstream media, despite the fact that it fits all the criteria of the Big Stories on the surface
The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.
Blacks killing blacks is a daily occurrence. No body cares. Blacks will vote democrats regardless. Whites killing anyone is huge news that matches the narrative, especially when a black is killed. Muslims killing people must be diminished as much as possible.
“Nothing done in the name of Islam has anything to do with Islam.”
