1. The link you posted is from a station in Huntsville, Alabama. That's a pretty big city.
2. It's a CBS affiliate.
3. It's owned by Tribune Broadcasting, which is a huge media conglomerate.

So your "point" about not hearing this in the mainstream media is off base.


Mainstrem = national.

And yet I saw nothing about it nationally, yes I may have missed it, but I wasn't bombarded with it like I would have been if the races were reversed, and that was my point.

Your point is dumb. You're comparing someone getting beat up to 9 people being shot and killed in a church. Both are horrible crimes, but one pales in comparison in tragicness.

Now if you can find an incident where a black man goes into a predominantly white church and kills 9 people in cold blood, and it's not reported by national news outlets, then we can talk.

What's sad is the same 'hate crime' laws that are undoubtedly going to be thrown in are going to bump this up to federal court instead of state court. That makes the death penalty much less likely.

No one on the left will make the connection though.

He's caught .... I think they said he's a Roof maybe.

A video playing nerd nut job.

He looks like a devil worshipper in his pictures.

No, no it's not, this wasn't the proper thread for it, but there are going to be hate crime charges brought against this shooter(justified no less) but there wasn't in the case I linked. There are similarities to the undertones of both these cases but if you can't see it I understand your blindness.

From what I've heard, the little fricker said "this has to be done..y'all are taking over my country" before opening fire. Some reports of him reloading 5 times...don't understand why somebody didn't jump his arse during one of those 5 reloads. Or at least run like hell. I'm thinking this happened at one of, if not the oldest historical black churches in SC.

Community organizer Christopher Cason said he felt certain the shootings were racially motivated.

Who the frick is saying no-one has the right to be angry about this?

Replacing a clip doesn't take all that long to do. I'm betting the people were a little frightened of being shot to death in those moments. Just a guess.

Which media? You do realize it's not one big entity.
