hello america!!! i don't wish to seem callous however, when i see how the authorities respond to the boston bombings, it makes me wonder if one persons life is more valuable than another's? the authorities locked down several communities in & around boston & launched a massive door-to-door search for the boston bombing suspect & the major media outlets have given the search continuous coverage. look, i really don't care how you feel about what's going on but hey, if they treated all homicides like this, there would be a lot less of them....
while i feel for 8 year old martin richard's family & friends & yes, i am very sympathetic, i have problems grasping what has been done for some but not for others.......this is the 8 year old's story & it deserves telling...http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/16/us/boston-boy-killed/index.html & then, you have this & you all don't say shit & the media doesn't cover it like they should...http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/03/19/17373987-funeral-held-for-six-month-old-shot-in-chicago?lite &, we damn well know the authorities don't treat it the same.
good people, call me what you wish to but, let's just look at the facts:::::shooting in that aurora theater---all over the news; virginia tech shootings---all over the news; sandy hook shootings---all over the news......no problem. 500 plus homicides (230 plus of them children) in 2012 in chicago---extremely little coverage...WHY??? is it because 392 of the homicides were black (77.01%)????-------so yeah, america, you got me wondering & hey, i don't like what i'm seeing because it points directly to racism.
how can a 6 month old being shot to death not be plastered all over the news? is it because she's black??? is it because she's not living in an affluent neighborhood???
so yeah, i have a problem when i see the death of the white 8 year old daily & none of the same reporting news agencies saying shit about a little black, 6 month old girl.........
