I love the Sacramento Bee because I always have to check carefully whether their articles are from competitor https://babylonbee.com/ .

For crime stories, the Bee mentions race ifbperp is Latino, Asian, white, middle eastern, but says nothing if perp is black. Seems racist to me..

Because in the real world where people actually live, too many of the criminals are black or minority, according to the papers’ biased viewpoint.

Papers are looking for ways to be less useful and informative to their readers.

Lo and behold they found another way.

Otice how the paper isnt concerned at all that a disproportionate amount of criminals are minorities?

You really have to wonder why that doesnt bother them.

Eveything in the world bothers these parent basement dwelling snowflakes.

It bothers them that nuns dont want to offer insurance that provides for abortion services, yet the fact more minorities commit crimes than whites, that doesnt trigger them, just having to report it triggers them.

I know why, its rhetorical.

Publishing these photographs and videos disproportionately harms people of color and those with mental illness, while also perpetuating stereotypes about who commits crime in our community.

Translation: Mugshots give an accurate snapshot of who is committing crimes.

It is not a stereotype if it is a truthful representation of the population, What word replaces “looting? Perhaps “unwanted donation of property” would work.

So, public records are being kept secret? Is that legal?

The Sac. Bee is a newspaper that has just declared it will withhold news from its readers. Everyone knows that the mugshots are predominately “people of color”. This might lead the reader to conclude that most criminals are “people of color”. We can’t have that, so we just won’t show mugshots.

This will force the reader have to read his ‘news’paper like a citizen of the Soviet Union—filling in the left-out bits on his own. At some point, they will have to also stop printing the names of arrestees for the same reason. Instead of Ta’Shawn Wilson, it will read, “Sacramento police arrested one T. Wilson”. But like the USSR, no one will be fooled and the Bee will wonder why it’s losing readers.

So now people can just disappear by the police state?

They are not thinking this one through.

While a mug shot may not be the most pleasant thing, at least it is a record for friends and family to verify you are in custody.

Better stop publishing names, too, cuz . . .

Reporting suspects as Shanaynay and DaLirius will be exposing the stereotype just as badly.

And no reporting of 14-month old shooting victims in the front seat of a car at 2 a.m.

And any arrest for trashing up a burger joint oven not getting enough honey mustard.

And block parties that end in fireworks of the 9mm variety.

And big-screen TV mob acquisitions as well.

Oh, and nooses hanging on doorknobs.

Stereotypes, man. I hate them. Stop reporting them at all.

Following the link trail:

“This policy emerges from compelling research suggesting that the widespread publication of police booking photos in the news and on social media creates an illusory correlation for viewers”

Naturally, no link to this “research” is supplied - nor any hint as to how one could measure an “illusory correlation” over and above the actual correlation that exists.

So calling the act of looting...looting is racist.

So, I guess stopping someone from looting your store is doubly racist.

Is the SacBee going to publish photos of “Most Wanted”?

I think not.
