Yet nobody even cares to acknowledge it. Wonder why this isn't getting attention...

Wonder why this isn't getting attention...

Probably because we're sadly, rapidly numbing to senseless gun-violence?

That's what I was thinking. That and the fact that the shooter was a black man who shot whites.

Not newsworthy when innocent white people are shot.

[jpx7]

Not newsworthy when innocent white people are shot.

Except the countless times in the past when such incidents have been extensively reported?

If the shooter had been a white lunatic who shot blacks using the same excuse this guy used, would it be on the news? Hell yeah

[jpx7]

Yea, white people generally have it the toughest in this country.

[weso1]

Yea, white people generally have it the toughest in this country.

But if all things were equal other than race?

[Krgrecw]

Yea, white people generally have it the toughest in this country.

Are you saying that if the roles were reversed it would not be news?

So a person shoots 4 people kills one of them

How about we talk about this

Or why has this received no press at all?

It doesn't matter now because only black people's lives matter.

Correction: black lives only matter if they are killed by cops

We have a winner.

Or if they're really good at sports or music.

And that's the fault of no one but themselves.

Just like if you're born into immense wealth, it's your fault: you earned it.
Or if you're born with a congenital heart defect, it's your fault: you earned your weakness.
Or if you're born with HIV, it's your fault you're immuno-compromised.
Or if you're born in relative privilege in a nice suburb, it's your fault that you have a moderate leg-up in life.
Or if you're born into a Christian family in Syria, it's your fault you're oppressed by ISIL.
Or if you were born Jewish in Poland in 1935, it's your fault you and your family ended up in the chambers.
Or if you happened to be (very privately) an atheist in Dhaka, it's your fault you were hacked to death in the streets.
Or if you're born and raised in a community where your opportunities for advancement and prosperity are severely limited, it's your fault you didn't overcome the societal handicap handed you as your perverse birthright.

Whoa there. Pump the brakes a bit.

All I was referring to was the viscous cycle of the killing each other and innocent people and children. They do this to themselves. Their lives clearly don't matter to their movement unless a black person is killed by the police and/or a white person. I can't speak for the black comminity, but I think it's safe to think that they have bigger issues then "racist" white people.

[Runnin]

If you're well-educated, in your 30's or beyond and still a tribalist, that IS your fault.

perhaps the bolded words ...

Nothing I said was incorrect or not true.

Please tell me how it's anyone else's fault, but black peoples in this instance. The amount of killing that occurs between black people is somehow my fault because I am white?
