    MOHAMMED ANWAR’S MYSTERY MURDERERS:
    Just think of the media as Democrat Party operatives with bylines, and it all makes sense.

    How do you know they weren't white??? Nothing in the post shows or identifies their race.

    The original claim wasn't that it was being ignored.

    But this was the only way you could make a point so I get why you twisted it.

    Are those stories treated as asides or are they treated as front-page news, such as when a white man kills a minority?

    Being mentioned on a site is quite different then being “covered”. It’s being ignored like every murder is ignored when it doesn’t fit a narrative. It is being ignored by all accounts.

    You KNOW it would be everywhere if it was white on minority, because it’s ALWAYS a big deal.

    Two reasons:

    1. There's video.
    2. Huffington post would've made it clear if they were white.

    Page one of my Google results strangely didn't include CNN and MSNBC. Looks like they covered it, but will they follow up at all like they would if it was white killer and a minority victim? And why isn't the race mentioned like it would if the killer was white and the victim was a minority?

    I think that filthy rich black men must own the media and therefore use it to pick on poor white folks...

    You mean the event that caused rioting across US cities? You want this story elevated to that? Can you tell me what makes news newsworthy?

    No. What the hell makes you think that I may have been saying that?

    Floyd level newsworthy?

    Yet someone else I have to correct......the claim was not that it's being ignored. The OP was clear. Read it again.

    Conservatives: "CNN and MSNBC are fake news!"
    Also conservatives: "Google knows too much about me!"
    Also conservatives: "Why aren't CNN and MSNBC showing up in my first page of news search results?!"

    That's interesting, you think we need to discriminate against religious people more? I actually agree.
