I’m not taking up for any national media including Fox News.If it was so news worthy, why did it take Fox 3 days? Remember, local news sources covered it immediately.
Did it rise to the level of needing to be covered on the third day but not immediately by national sources?
I always assume you are ill informed and willfully ignorant and time and time again you give proof to that assumption. So then, is it really an assumption?lol.....You may also want to consider that a poster may occasionally join in on a thread without reading through the whole thread.
I make the comparison for several reasons. I'll spare you having to read all of them and will stick to one. I have a huge issue with the concept of collective guilt. When a white person does something horrible to a black person, many people will seek to extrapolate the sin and apply it to the collective and mostly innocent group. While some use it as a pretense to riot, and to destroy people's property. And it's all encouraged and justified by the media and public figures. When the roles are reversed none of this happens and people that would blame all blacks for the crime's of one are rightfully disregarded. It's the double standard that bothers meUnpopular Opinion - Cannon Hinnant's death was tragic and an unspeakable crime perpetrated on an innocent. BUT, ask yourself why he is being compared to George Floyd. There seem to be no similarities. If there are no similarities why are the two being compared?
My opinion is that it is for nothing more than a distraction. It is to dilute the effect of the the Floyd case. This poor child is being used because he was a white child murdered by a black man in horrific fashion. If it is not the case, tell me what you know about Khyundra Henderson, King Hill, Zachary Sabin, the unnamed child of Makuya Stephanie Kambamba, Caira and Leah Christopher. Were they any less innocent? Were their deaths any less tragic? Why is nobody outraged by those deaths? Perhaps because they were all victims of murder by someone of the same race? BTW, they are all children murdered in the last month. And sadly, I could add far more names to that list.

Blacks have been historically mistreated by whites who are in a position of power. Not really sure why people cannot see this.
Because it is 2020 dumbarse. You dont get to hang on to that excuse forever
In 2020 America, people DO NOT mistreat black people in any level worth equating to a systemic problem.
Decades ago racism was overt and aggressive. Now that behavior is gone, thus the eternal victim hustlers have resorted to this absurd disguised, hidden, unprovable racism that no one can define. That is convenient.
I agree and am not disputing it. But why should the current generations have to pay for the sins of their fathers.
AND HOW LONG DOES THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS RUN ON WHAT OUR ANCESTORS DID?
Or do they just want cash and land?
And you're an ignorant fool.
And just like that he was fresh out of arguments. You have yet to string together two sentences without calling me a name. Why do you believe racism is dead? I will give a fresh example of the racism displayed just recently. Joe names Kamala Harris as his VP candidate. Immediately, I start seeing the Trump supporters begin to question how black she really was and calling her a whore that slept her to power. First, how black do you have to be to say you are black? Why is that important to the Trump supporters? Also, the arguments regarding her sleeping her way to the top would never be made if she were a man. It is disgusting. It is racist and it is sexist.
