A loyal reader sent me a curious email about the tragic case of an immigrant with a Spanish surname and a dark complexion who is accused of murdering a young woman in Iowa.
It’s curious because roughly two to three women are killed each day in the U.S. by an intimate partner, according to the Violence Prevention Center, and yet you’ll never know the names of the victims because their deaths won’t come close to generating the wall-to-wall coverage focusing on the death of Mollie Tibbetts.

Because just like Seth Rich’s family, Tibbetts’ family values their lefty agenda more than they do their murdered family member.
While I’d moderate that a bit due to the second cousin statement, I had the same thought when it came to the parents of that girl shot to death in San Francisco.
It’s like these folks are just fine with losing their daughters as long as it was an act of an illegal alien.
I would have raised holy hell over those deaths, if it had been my daughter.
It makes my blood boil as it is.
Send the God Damned illegal alien f-heads back over the border, starting this minute. Sorry, but I’ve had it with this nonsense.
Mr. Breton purposely, as do most of the left, confuses citizenship status with racism. The worst thing you can hang on a person is the racist label. Yet he and his brethren casually label POTUS and his supporters as such without providing proof. Thank God he treats everyone the same never bowing to PC culture where minorities are elevated to being un-criticizable.
The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat
Her family..a second cousin an aunt?
So have I which is why I cut them no slack. If they don't like the press pushing the narrative that they care more about illegal aliens than their own daughter then they can come out with a strong statement about it.
That figures. It really does.
They know where they can stick that racism charge.
I don’t care what they call me I know what my real motivations are.
The point ol’ Marcus seems to miss is that Mollie Tibbetts’ death is especially frustrating because (at least how it happened) it was entirely preventable simply by enforcing present law. One cannot say that for most deaths caused by an “intimate partner”.
As for “attention given” to one death over another, THAT is 99% due to the MSM, not conservative news outlets. I find that in my own region (flyover country) murders of “intimate partners”, male or female, usually get a LOT of attention / coverage from local media, while I have not seen a single report on the Tibberts’ murder on TV. Granted, I do not watch a lot of TV, but I usually do catch the local news most evenings.
That said, if someone (intimate partner or not) was killed because, say, an order of protection or “no contact” was not vigorously enforced, I find that just as disgusting and disturbing as Mollie Tibberts’ murder.
Let them reconcile that with how many Blacks are killed every day by other Blacks but we only hear about the ones who are killed by non-Blacks, and who also tend to be thugs themselves...which doesn't stop those like the writer of this article from backing them 100% while they crap on the graves of innocent Whites....
Yep, I agree.
I agree with you on all points.
