“Really? I thought the police contributed little to the death toll vs other blacks.”
When I wrote articles for the Tallahassee Democrat sometimes the editor would toss in what she felt was an explanatory sentence. These always bolstered her anti-business, ultra-liberal view and never made sense in the context of what I’d written. The sentence blaming cops for contributing to the problem is a sop to the generally accepted (by liberals) concept that the cops are at least as guilty as the blacks. If the sentence were not there the author would be deemed racist and BLM people would probably be all over him the next day. Call it BLM insurance.
OK, so this is simply lies for the sake of adgenda. Its not misleading but truly lies to make what is as tho it is not. In that regard its not news but propaganda.
