Makes too much sense.
Wouldn't it be refreshing to see someone famous concerned about those 20 kids that got shot (two dead) here in Florida (Ft Myers) a month ago at a place called Club Blu? Damn, a mass shooting that was pretty much forgotten by sundown the next day. In fact it was the fifth mass shooting in 10 months in Ft Myers.
This would still be running 24-7 if it were white school kids, in a white community, or white cops killing a black man, or a gay and lesbian club, or "workplace/terrorist violence" in San Bernardino.
But, it wasn't any of that, it was 20 African American kids and they were shot by people in their community. One was a talented high school basketball player that had a chance to play in college.
That pisses me off - is their any less grief to the loss of innocence in this community than any of the others listed above? If I were black and considering oppression, it would really, really piss me off. And, my anger would be directed at the press and media in this country for not showing it anymore concern than they would have of a lynching in the 1940s. Its veiled racism and people allow it.
Hell tonight there was a story in NBC 2 out of Ft Myers about bolstering the security of Lee County Court House. The talking head said "we wouldn't want something happening here like at Club Pulse," then they even showed Orlando scenes. The dumb asses; the Club Blu shooting occurred a mere 3.1 miles away from the Lee County Court House a month ago yesterday and they didn't even mention it.
