A White Five-Year-Old Boy Was Executed Outside His Home. It’s Not a Shock Why the Liberal Media is Ignoring It.

A Five-Year-Old Was Executed Outside His Home. It’s Not a Shock Why the Liberal Media is Ignoring It.

We have a brutal crime in North Carolina, and if the races of those involved were reversed, this would be a national story. Instead, the victim is white. A five-year-old was shot in the head by a 25-year-old black man in front of his siblings as they played outside of their father’s house in Wilson, North Carolina. We don’t know a motive, other than pure evil (via WSOCTV):

A 25-year-old man accused of shooting his 5-year-old neighbor in the head at point blank range in Wilson, North Carolina on Sunday night has been charged with first-degree murder in the boy’s death.

Darius Nathaniel Sessoms, 25, was arrested Monday after fleeing the scene and is in the custody of Wilson Police and members of the U.S. Marshals Service Carolinas Regional Task Force, The Wilson Times reported. Sessoms was found in a home in Goldsboro.

[…]

Wilson police said officers responding Sunday evening to a report of a shooting at a mobile home park found Cannon Hinnant suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. Capt. Steve Stroud said officers and other first responders performed first aid before the boy was taken to Wilson Medical Center, where he died.

“The Wilson Police Department sends its sincerest condolences and prayers to the family of Cannon during this tragic time,” the department said in a release.

Family members told WRAL that Cannon Hinnant was playing outside his father’s house when he was shot in the head. The boy’s two sisters, ages 8 and 7, saw their brother get shot, according to Cannon’s mother.

Doris Lybrand, who witnessed the shooting, told WRAL that Sessoms ran up to the boy, put the gun near his head and fired before running back to his own house.

“My first reaction was he’s playing with the kids,” Lybrand said. “For a second, I thought, ‘That couldn’t happen.’ People don’t run across the street and kill kids.”

Went online to confirm the details of this story- couldnt find a single national media outlet covering it. Not one.

Absolutely horrific, nightmarish story. Pure vicious evil. And media silence around it is disgusting and obvious.

The lack of media coverage when the victim doesn’t fit the progressive narrative is not new. In Wisconsin, a retired Virginia police officer was brutally run over and killed by a Hispanic man, who was clearly Trump-deranged. The fact that the victim was riding a Harley-Davidson appears to be one of the many things that set him off. Daniel Navarro intentionally swerved into Phillip Thiessen to collide with him head-on, telling authorities all Harley riders are racists.

“If Trump and white people are going to create a world like we are living in, then he has no choice and people are going to have to die,” Navarro told authorities. He admitted that he had been thinking about targeting a white person to kill the day he murdered Thiessen. No one covered that story either.

MsM will never cover this to any degree. It is a strange case. This happened in a well kept mixed race working class area of Wilson. The killer lived next door to the victim and appears to have been a family friend having eaten dinner with them the previous night. No excuses for this man but I suspect he was high as a kite on some devils stew of several drugs including meth. Drugs of all sorts have truly rotted much of working class society here and in the UK and Australia. It is a problem the elites could care less about.

Blacks commit violence against whites at a massively higher rate than the reverse scenario.

The narrative of BLM, now accepted as religion by the Left, that “Blacks live in mortal peril of white violence” is not only fiction. It is the polar opposite of the truth.

Blacks kill over twice as many whites compared to the number of blacks killed by whites. .
That’s a population-adjusted rate 12 times the white-on-black homicide rate.

For all violent crime: Adjusted for population size, Blacks commit it against whites at a rate 30 times that of the reverse. Thirty. Times.

The left is OK with this murder. Their hatred for Whitey is so great that they willingly support and encourage this sort of thing. They want more subhuman street savages to kill innocent 5-year olds on their bikes.

The democrats haven’t condemned this.

No groups of “White Lives Matter” protesters has gone in the streets. (If it did, the democrats would have them mowed down by the police.)

My cynicism hides a profound anger.

CNN.com today has this on their trending stories (what has it been, a week ago?).

While the lack of coverage is a shame I mainly want justice to be done. The perp is in custody and hopefully that will be his last murder.

Did they cover it like they did Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, George Floyd?

**********

Nope...

There wasn't huge gatherings protesting, marching, demonstrating, etc. so what
was there for them to cover? Had there been they would have been there spilling
their garbage.

They did have articles of the event in many news outlets.

Take care and have a blessed Friday.

That story disappeared real quick and in a hurry, didn’t it?

Yes, it did! I’ll bet most Americans still don’t even know it happened. Apparently, the story was not helpful to the Liberal agenda. Otherwise, they would be broadcasting the event 24/7. Gloating about it all.

I’ll ask the same question I asked about the Floyd death. Is there any evidence this death was related to Cannon Hinnant’s skin color?

Imagine that the scenario were racially reversed: a 25 y/o white man shooting a 5 year old black boy without provocation. Even if the killer were just a mentally ill individual looking for a random person to kill with no racial or personal motive, the media would automatically assume that it was a racially motivated crime and use it as evidence of how black people will never be safe around evil, racist whites.

We'll have to wait and see until there's more background about this Darius thug (assuming the facts of the case are even shared with us), but given the political climate we're in - with BlackLivesMatter encouraging anti-white hatred and violence and egged on by liberal politicians and media alike - it's more than fair to speculate that Darius had a racial motive and was looking for a random white person to murder. If this is in fact the case, you can bet your house that the mainstream media will do all that it can to make sure that the story is buried.
