    You're on pace for a thread per death. Actually if there is another thread on this i didn't know. But either way you're the last person as your threads are also on random isb

    Do those 243 other lives not deserve outrage?

    The killer was their neighbor for 8 years. He had dinner the night before with the family. This was about something else. The point is: Conservatives are making it out that a RANDOM black man went up to the kid and shot him. There is more to this story. However, it won't bring the 5 year old back. It is a sad story.

    So you are saying there are too many threads and too few deaths for your taste.

    I didn't vote for Trump.

    I don't defend his handling of the pandemic

    So what im saying is you're the last person to talk about thread starting.

    @Carl Herrera

    Its not about the one death. This isn't news to me. This has no affect on anyone's life except the people involved.

    Most news is sensationalist and its been that way for a very long time, long like since media has been mass media.

    That being said they should be fair in applying a standard to what they choose to cover

    Fox might have been the first to politicize the story and devote constant around-the-clock coverage to it, but they were certainly not the first national news outlet to report it. I found it online and know for a fact that even CNN (yes, that CNN) had several stories and updates on it as well.

    But continue to be outraged over the reporting in this case (even though it WAS reported). Continue to be outraged over cartoon characters losing their rifles. Continue to be outraged over warnings being applied to 100 year old movies. And by all means, be outraged when racists get made fun of online. Shed a tear for the police, too, when they choke non-combative suspects to death and shoot women dead in their own homes, then cover it up. Be furious when people demand justice and say, "Enough!" And be sickened, not from the virus, but when its reported that millions have been infected with it after the president told the world it was going to disappear months ago. Why? Because Tucker Carlson and some kid with a YouTube channel said so. :mad:

    I dont watch Fox News. I don't have a problem with most national stories. I saw this on Facebook, i don't watch a lot of national news. Im not talking about police shootings, im talking about race in general

    Your real problem seems be that you are blinded by the fact that foxnews was the only station to try and make a big deal out of this George Floyd was murdered on camera this poor kid wasn't that maybe the reason that it wasn't covered the same way or the fact that those other station were covering other things that were on camera like the lies that are coming from 1600 Pennsylvania ave please don't it twisted that poor baby didn't deserve to be killed like that and this is one of the cases were a trial is not needed for me give him the chair.

    Bro

    If the races were reversed this would have been immediately covered

    Dont tell me what my issue is when im telling you what my issue is

    For the the third damn time its not about police its about race

    Edit: Regardless of Fox's agenda the msm was called and then reported it

    The media goes out of its way to cover stupid Karen stories. They have set themselves up for the criticism

    Especially if they found KKK propaganda in the murderers house, well like this guy. Always with the false equivalence.

    Ku Klux Klan leader drove truck into crowd of peaceful protesters, Virginia officials say
