The Suspect Said that He Wanted to Kill White People

America’s modern race-obsessed progressive media exhibits symptoms of brainwashing that are so severe, they make North Korea look positively libertarian.

To hear them tell it, last Wednesday evening a black man in Minnesota “was shot dead for a broken taillight” a mere day after a black man in Louisiana “was shot dead for selling CDs.” Mais pourquoi? Because, dummy, of “our nation’s carnal desires to spill black blood.” Duh! What are you—some kind of racist or something?

Jim Goad, at his best:

Hello, Black America. My name is Jim. I’m going to delicately suggest that if you don’t want to be constantly encountering police, it would behoove you to cease committing crime at such astronomical levels.

And if black lives matter to you as much as you claim they do, maybe focus on the 5,000 or so black-on-black murders last year at least as much as you obsess over the three dozen or so black men killed by white cops last year. And, what the hell, just a suggestion here—quit burning your cities to the ground every time a black man dies at the hands of police. What was the end result of you torching Baltimore last year over the death of Freddie Gray? Your city saw 344 murders in 2015 compared to 217 the year before. It’s probably safe to assume that 100 of those additional murder victims were black. So to show your solidarity and bravery and support of black lives, you torch your city over one dead black guy, scare the police away, and then murder an extra hundred black guys.

The media is not blaming the murders on racism and hate. Instead, it Whites are to blame, as they always are

Here are the media's ground rules:

Black on black crime: Blame guns, blame poverty caused by white racism, or better still bury it under the rug because it doesn't fit with the BlackLivesMatter-type agenda.

Black on white crime: Bury it under the rug when possible. When this is not possible, as with the Dallas shooter, try to portray it as an excessive but completely understandable lashing out against white racism.

White on black crime: In the rare instances where this occurs, it's a field day for the media, because such freakish "man bites dog" outliers fit into their lying narrative.

Police shooting of white criminals:Not news, regardless of circumstances.

Police shooting of black criminals:The suspect is always a "good boy," a "youth", "unarmed", a "gentle giant" and otherwise an innocent victim and martyr, even when he has a criminal record the length of a tractor trailer and was shot while committing a violent crime.

White on white crime: Blame guns and the NRA.
