Forums - Politics Discussion - Why isn't the media covering the killing of an unarmed white youth by a black police officer?

Because there isn't a riot attached to it , also it doesn't come with a community feeling it's being targeted because of race.

media isn't covering it because nobody here is all that racially charged... we don't really think along those lines for the most part...



It has everything to do with race, and nothing to do with the community, the riots, or anything else like that.

All shootings are bad, period, but when a white cop shoots a black kid, it is a perfect time for equal rights groups to pounce on it. Other than a few quick stories, there is nothing to be pounced on when a black shoots a white, however. It just isn't really any more significant than any shooting, which generally gets no more than a few minutes on the news.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

Because obviously only white people can be racists

Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Its no secret white cops racially profile black males but it happens vice versa also(something the media neglects to report)basically the stories of white cops killing blacks get the most attention because the media and government use things like what happened in missouri to cause descention between white and black people to further their own agendas



Because it doesnt fit the liberal narrative.

How are 20-year old jaded white college drop out Che Guevaras gonna feel good about themselves if they protect a person from an ethnical majority? Thats not very edgy and revolutionary and it doesnt make a an empty headed liberal feel morally superior compared to others
