It's sad these folks have to host fundraisers to cover medical bills that will be so huge it will likely not put a dent in them. But that's life in 'Murica.

Our local news simply reports on local and important national events without bias or sensationalism.

Have you considered that if many in the South didn’t support racists then the media might not report it? Just because you shoot the messenger doesn’t mean the message doesn’t still exist.

This kind of thing happens every day in this country. We are not nearly as divided as the media, and our politicians, would like you to believe. Not everyone plays identity politics.
