Pathetic.

Are the victims black?

Is the shooter white?

Did he use an AR-15?

Black victims + white shooter = national story

Any victims + white shooter + AR15 = national story

Black victims + white shooter + AR15 = national story & visit from president

Black victims + black shooter = “local story”, gun doesn’t matter.

(Downvote it all you want. But you know it’s true. This story is not even 24 hours old and it’s already fading fast from the MSM)

Damn, UVA is attractive to nut job shooters for some reason. One of my friends had a sister who was killed back in the day by the Asian shooter.


That was at Virginia Tech, not UVA.

I’d wager this is more of a street beef than a mass shooter or terrorism

No talking points from MSM. B on B crime. "Move on, nothing to see here."

LINK

The guys who were shot were getting off a bus from a "field trip" to D.C. to see a play.

Must have been an afternoon performance, because DC to Charlottesville is a 3 hour drive. Play plus dinner would get them to UVA about 10:30.

Were there only football players on the bus?

Where did UVA play on Saturday?

LINK

Pittsburg won at Charlottesville Saturday and the "crowd" in the stadium was 59% filled.

Did they fly somewhere to see a play? Something's missing.

Not what you would expect to read about an accused murderer

Probably drove up to see a play for class credit on Sunday and drove back. That seems pretty straight forward.

Maybe but would you be saying that if the shooter was white, the vics black and the national media was all over this?

Because it's hypocrisy if you don't say the same thing.

BTW, just saw on The Advocate website that a kid from Uhigh was one of the injured (not killed).

Correct. It IS pathetic. It is worse than pathetic.

Everything you quoted above is sadly correct. If this doesn't fit the media narrative, this will be buried by tomorrow and none of these lives will matter.

If the shooter was a cop or white.....

Well, this is the part where every groomer pretends that to live in an alternate reality.
