Forum: Internet Links Topic: The 4 stages of the MSM reporting on a kill spree started by: GORDON Posted by GORDON on Mar. 24 2012,12:02
< http://www.nationalreview.com/corner....k-steyn >QUOTE Stage One: The strange compulsion to assure us that the killer is a “right wing conservative extremist . . . ."
. . . Stage Two: Okay, he may be called Mohammed but he’s a “lone wolf.” . . . Stage Three: Okay, even if there are enough lone wolves around to form their own Radio City Rockette line, it’s still nothing to do with Islam. . . . Stage Four: The backlash that never happens. Because apparently the really bad thing about actual dead Jews is that it might lead to dead non-Jews: “French Muslims Fear Backlash After Shooting.” Likewise, after Major Hasan’s mountain of dead infidels, “Shooting Raises Fears For Muslims In US Army.” Likewise, after the London Tube slaughter, “British Muslims Fear Repercussions After Tomorrow’s Train Bombing.” Oh, no, wait, that’s a parody, though it’s hard to tell.

Maybe we should add this to our list:When a white heterosexual male does something to a non-WHM, it's a hate crime When a non-WHM does something to a WHM, it's....what? Posted by Cakedaddy on Mar. 24 2012,14:27
It's racist if it gets any coverage which specifies the race of the criminal and victim. As in, if you specify, you are racist.

I can imagine some times when the race of either the criminal or the victim (or both) are relevant to the story. But when they get featured for no good reason, then yes: racist.
