I get supporting your family no matter what, but there is no justifying his actions. I would just not comment.
Actually if my sibling did this (they wouldn't) I would probably call them out tbh. It's sickening.

I assume you mean media here as I do not think anyone would really argue the dem's solely control the narrative in this country. Anyway, no arguments from me on the media's role in stirring up shite through intellectually dishonest takes.
Who controls the media?

So, like every other politician in this country.

I think he means ideologically. Because ideologically the media is pretty much monolithic, much like academia.

IDK if it's already been said in this thread but I would urge everybody to watch the video of the police chief releasing the footage to the media. At least the beginning, before he starts narrating the photos, and the ending after he's done. Hit me in the feels big time.

If they were driven by consumers, Rachel Maddow and a few others would no longer have shows, and there might even be TWO Fox News, if ratings actually mattered.

Maybe the worst take in the history of takes. CNN and MSNBC are dividing the country. When you only air a small segment of a police shooting or police shootings of a singular race, you are race baiting your viewers. Like 95% of the shite they run is completely false and fits an agenda they are pushing. Just fricking report actual news
You are a great example of what I'm talking about regarding the tribalism in this country; you are part of the problem. Why are you even bringing the media into this? That's a separate issue. Somehow, most likely through living in a complex echo chamber, you think one must choose between two equally outrageous positions: blindly supporting the mainstream media, or blindly supporting what are often objectively dishonest stances by Trump. You think if one points out the problems with one of the above (media or Trump) they necessarily support all of the other. I choose to not live in that world. I point out dishonesty wherever it lay.

Would you agree that at this point you're being intentionally difficult so as to stifle legitimate discourse? This is a message board. While I put an emphasis on the accuracy of the words I use, there is no need for me to dig up the Mexican rapist quote. You've heard it, I've heard it. There is no reason to ask for these links other than to deflect.

No, you can't provide them and are deflecting yourself. Come on, Wonder Woman, shite or get of the pot.

You would have to be legit retarded. Dont feel bad, youre in a big crowd.
Media has been bought by political groups.

You're way off here. Her ratings are very strong.

Look, this is a terrible story and I hope the killer gets put to death with the quickness. But you sound like a retard calling this “Biden’s America” when this is very clearly “Trump’s America,” if we must choose from those two options.
I hate politics, but I’m sorry, I’ve never see so much BS thrown at a president just to try and get him out. Covid-19, BLM, Russian hoax, stormy Daniels.
I mean for fricks sake, Clinton fricked an intern in the Oval Office and lied about it, Bush started an Iraq war based on BS weapons of mass destruction. Obama race baiting and Benghazi.
Trump hasn’t really done anything insane like those 3 guys and he’s getting it all thrown at him. You have to ask why they won’t just let the guy lead and let him prove himself or fail.

There likely were WMD in Iraq, that's probably how the Syrians got theirs and used them. Otherwise, I am in agreement with your statement.

I don't know where you got that information from, but it isn't true. The Taser not working is normally due to a bad connection of the probes. Either they are too close together or they aren't in the skin and/or hung up on clothing.

Nope. The media has figured out how to manipulate the consumer into believing what it wants them to believe.
It's a shame that American's are so stupid. Causes things like this tragedy to occur.

This charade you're putting on in order to sound distinguished and impartial is pathetic.
