"In the end, I believe that together we will come to an agreement that will avoid the so-called fiscal cliff, and put our nation on the path to prosperity while also reducing the debt.

I will add that it has been brought to my attention that the black youths of America are attacking white people. I condemn such black-on-white violence, as well as abuse, and I will ask Congress to send a bill to my desk specifically banning black-on-white violence and abuse.

Finally, I must speak out against Josh Hamilton leaving the beloved Texas Rangers baseball organization."

(Press): "Mr President!"

Me: "Sorry, no questions."

In other words you would give us double talk which is just a polite word for BS.

Look it up. That is history.

You fault Obama for not speaking out against black violence yet where were the outcries against white violence in all the years and years that we had white presidents? You think violence in our streets just started in the past four years? What color are the mass murderers who are going into our schools, theaters and malls and shooting down innocent people? Crime is crime. Sure, we have a problem in this country but it's not a black-white issue!

Unions are bad for the economy, bad for jobs, and bad for the average worker.

"Jeez, so now it's our president's fault because...."

Trump was BLAMED for anything AND EVERYTHING BAD that happened in America.

Can't have it both ways.

"are smart enough to recognize these are LOCAL stories of little interest outside the area."

ALL stories like these are LOCAL.

The Michal Brown story was LOCAL.

The Trevon Martin story was local.

The Floyd story was LOCAL.

The media CHOOSES which stories to report on and talk about.

Only a totally biased person would NOT see what the media reports on and does NOT report on IS biased.

Why didn't any of these make the national news?

https://www.americanrifleman.org/art...en-may-21-2021

"An armed bystander came to the rescue of a woman in Tucson, Ariz., who was being assaulted and pursued by her boyfriend on April 28, 2021."
"The husband soon followed downstairs to the door of the apartment, 12-ga. shotgun in hand, and demanded that he be let in to see his children."

"When the sister refused, the husband fired several blast from his shotgun through the front door. Out of fear for his own life and the lives of other family members, the brother armed himself with an AR-style rifle and returned fire"

"An 85-year-old homeowner in Cathedral City, Calif., was forced to act in self-defense when an intruder broke in on May 16, 2021."
"At some point during the confrontation, the intruder began to make death threats against the residents, spurring the 85-year-old homeowner to grab a gun. The homeowner then shot the intruder once in the upper body."

https://www.americanrifleman.org/art...en-may-28-2021

I could list THOUSANDS of these types of stories that NEVER made onto the NATIOANL media SCENE.

In Chicago this year alone
Year to Date
Shot & Killed: 249
Shot & Wounded: 1186
Total Shot: 1435
Total Homicides: 266

Care to explain why?

Obama and his Black Liberation Theology is now running this country with Critical Race Theory.. making blacks hate whites . This garbage is creating great division and hate between the races. Blacks are now acting out what Black Liberation Thinking does. Hate whitey and never unite with them. Read about what Black Liberation Theology is and know this. Obama sat under this teaching for 20 long years until he became president.

The democrats give the unions the shaft over and over.. Clinton passed Nafta which the Unions saw as treason to the unions. The dems are no longer for unions.. they are forgotten and yet those union leaders are bought off or slow to learn.


The unions do help people . They are for the working man. Dems are NO LONGER for the working man. They are for illegal cheap labor first and globalists sending out jobs to other countries.

Google "knoxville massacre" to see a great definition of media suppression (warning: extremely disturbing)

Suppose this goes national. What do you think the ramifications will be if the national media starts talking about this often? How will it help everyone? Hurt everyone?

Who cares? But at least if they stop with their biased narrative it will get the truth out there.
If they're going to mention race, they should make
sure they do it with ALL stories.
Meh ... most white people already know the truth about interracial violence and crime.


What do you care anyway? You're always posting about what only affects you. Sounds like you're afraid of the truth getting out.
