LOL sounds a bit like calling this weekend's incident a traffic violation.

Oh, a person getting killed is not the same thing as a person getting killed? That's news to me.

I see there were media articles about it. But it was a neighbor's dispute as DC pointed out, and the Charlottesville protests we're national news.

So...nice try, OP. Spin didn't work this time.

You seem to really like to play dumb today.

Motivation matters. If someone kills another over a bar tab or some lawn dispute, that is unfortunate but will not be covered the same as when someone engages in domestic terrorism and tries to indiscriminately kill people for some ideological or political agenda.

Deliberately obtuse?

A neighbor killing a neighbor because of long-standing animosity is not the same thing as a white supremacist getting into a car and using the car as a weapon to kill and hurt strangers because they disagree with him.

If the DNC says it didn't happen, the MSM does it's job by not reporting the non-event. In the real world a man was shot to death by a leftist who hated his political belief. However, we won't be reading much about it.

Worse, it's like calling this weekend's incident self defense. Which the alt-right is attempting.
