    Good for you!

    You think they're rare? The Marxists, not the children.

    I actually did, hence my post. Cannon Hinnant was shot 5 days ago. A "say his name" hashtag started trending and CNN finally covered it yesterday; after my post. The New York Post was the first national media to cover it 3 days ago. As far as I can see, still nothing from the New York Times, the Washington Post, LA Times. Nothing from the big 3 networks morning news nor their evening news, nothing from PBS.

    Go ahead right now and do a Google search of Cannon Hinnant. Lots of local news outlets covering it, but few major media. Notice the timeline of the few major media while you're at it.

    I actually saw a story on this a couple of days before the OP was posted and had been following it somewhat just to see when major media would pick up on it and when someone here would start a thread.

    And, who are you to presume to know my "political agenda"??

    I don't have a problem with that, so why do you have a problem with black folks who were done a grave injustice receiving reparations. This POS has to pay restitution to this family he has damaged.

    It took protesting around the world to get that arrest, now what? How much protesting did it take in NC to get this POS arrested?

    I don't need the benefit of the doubt. Of the 4 links you posted, 2 are local outlets. Only 2 would be considered major outlets.

    Of them all, only 1 had coverage earlier than the last 24 hours, which only proves my post, that major media ignored this story.

    No, it took an investigation. There was no "round the world" protesting in 4 days.

    And if that's your excuse, why has none of it stopped? So much vandalism to do and free stuff to be had.

    (CNN)Protesters have marched in the US for six consecutive nights over the death of George Floyd at the hands of a police officer. Their anger over the killing of the unarmed black man has now spread worldwide.

    Over the weekend demonstrators gathered in London, Berlin and Auckland, among other cities, to protest against police brutality in solidarity with the US crowds.

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/01/world/george-floyd-global-protests-intl/index.html

    He was the exception to the rule, most officers that murder unarmed black men are not arrested in 4 days and you know it.

    Because nothing has changed.

    So that's your excuse.

    And now that the investigation shows the truth, the officers will be found not guilty. Black supremacy will fall quickly.

    Sounds like we have a potential "motive"..... if this is the case, that's not gonna save this guy from the needle/chair/firing squad

    SNIP
    Sessoms' parents said they are deeply saddened by what happened to Cannon. They said they believe their son was on drugs and having hallucinations at the time of the shooting.

    So does this mean it's time for angry white people to get some "free" electronics now? I could use one of those new curved TVs.

    What a load of delusional BS. You do know if you have to make up fictional events to support your opinion, your opinion probably isn't valid. The riots have to do with police murders. Is you hypothetical situation now that a white cop walked up and murdered a black child, then sure, talk about riots...
