When you need to rant...

One thing the media is neglecting to report, is according to the latest available statistics (2018), 24% of all hate crimes against Asians are committed by whites, and 27% are criminals mmitted by blacks.
If a black person kills an Asian, that’s horrible. Any murder is horrible, regardless of who gets killed and who’s doing the killing.
But the media wouldn’t give a story like that the time of day. Why? It doesn’t fit the narrative of Big Evil Racist White Murka.

They still haven’t determined a motive. It might be he was a sex addict or had some other mental problem. But don’t let motive stand in the way of the media’s narrative.
Even Biden is holding off on commenting until more facts are found.

That usually is the narrative whenever it's a white guy (who also happens to be Christian and/or conservative): oh, woe is he, he wasn't in his right frame of mind, he didn't know what he was doing, he's the real victim here, poor guy.

But even so, what does sex addiction have to do with any of this? What, was he upset that no Asian women would let him bone them or something?

@fuzzygobo Black people pretty much get a free pass for murder, regardless if it’s a black on black or black on Asian, whatever crime, and it’s exactly why I hate every news network except for the BBC channel now.

With that said, I also hate that the media is once again giving this new shooter excuses for what he did.

This is basically how a news story is reported:

Mass shooting happens: If it’s a white person, they get excuses and free passes. If it’s any other race, they get a label like thug or terrorist, whatever.

One on one murder: White person kills another white person, free pass. White person kills person of color: all over the news. Person of color kills white person or another person of color, nothing.

You have two categories of news networks: dishonest ones like CNN and msnbc, and then Fox News who just throw temper tantrum stories

And let's be honest here: if the roles were reversed, and it was a black shooter who killed white people, Fox would be all over it screaming, "See?! This is what real racism looks like in America!"

 

[LittleJerry92]

That’s where I pointed out the single category of Fox News: Just having temper tantrums in their news reports.

For the last time, I’m not giving the shooter any excuses. It doesn’t make the crime any less heinous if the shooter was Black, Hispanic, or Asian. It doesn’t make the grief for the victim’s’ families any less tragic.

And I am sick to death of anyone with a victim mentality. It makes it so convenient for you not to be accountable for your actions. Not your race’s actions, YOUR actions.
When I have to give account of myself at the end of my life, I can only be responsible for what I did, not what someone did to me.

Just had to spend nearly 50 dollars for gas.

The one thing I absolutely dislike about Biden’s presidency so far. I really hope he doesn’t re-illegalize weed like he once planned to.

 

[fuzzygobo]

I don’t think you have to worry about that. During her presidential bid, Kamala Harris bragged about the joys of weed. That would be a hard one to walk back.

 

[LittleJerry92]

I actually got high after having to spend so much for gas.

Normally this isn’t a big issue for me, but today is one of those days, especially with after how crummy this week has been.

The one thing I absolutely dislike about Biden’s presidency so far.

You do realize gas prices were already rising rapidly in the waning months of Trump's regime, right?
