Buffalo shooting - if racial component were switched...?

I wonder if Brandon would still be going to Buffalo.

If the Buffalo shooter were black and all the victims were white, I wonder how this board's regular posters would react.

How are they reacting now? Is there any person that has defended the shooter?

What if the white guy had run over everyone with a truck...would legacy media be telling everyone a truck ran over everyone?

Because that's what drives the social narrative; a message board forum on an SEC school's unofficial website. Not the media's reaction, not the President's reaction; no, you should be concerned about the reaction here.

Post less.

The question should be. If the Buffalo shooter were black and all the victims were white, I wonder what the Media's reaction be?

I haven’t read a single comment on this board or the OT that supports the shooter. He is universally condemned here.

What you’re likely reading is frustration about a few things:

1) The media’s difference in coverage between this event and others
2) Potential 2nd Amendment infringements
3) Potential backlash against whites by thug POSes

I have failed to see anyone who supports the shooter or “his cause” on this board.

If the racial component were switched it would not be a major covered event on MSM and Biden would not be traveling to Buffalo. That’s the point people have been bringing up. You’re being disingenuous if you suggest it’d be otherwise

Noone has been in support of the shooter. Not that I’ve seen. I think most all are sickened at what he did.

You’d still have three dicks in your mouth.

Seriously. The stats aren’t good in your favor. Just stop. Unless you know doubt the FBI.

Racism doesn't exist like the media would have you think. It was virtually nonexistent before Obama was elected. We regressed 40 years while he was president.

Unfortunately, I can't tell if this is meant as sarcasm.

My original post was directed at what seemed to me to be a lot of mental gymnastics and effort to talk about anything except the racial component of the attack, the white-nationalist ideology that fueled it (and the media that promote it), and America's unhealthy gun culture that makes it more likely for hateful thought to become harmful action.

So, instead of seeing tons of comments explicitly condemning the attack...full stop, it's a bunch of "Hmmm, this seems very convenient for [insert liberal group/cause]" and "Hmmm, that manifesto seemed to well-written for an 18-yr-old, so..." and "If they think abortion is ok, they should be ok with this."

and "If they think abortion is ok, they should be ok with this."

absolutely nobody said this. i've not seen anyone not condemn the attack for what it is.

FULL STOP

But going back to your hypothetical, if the racial component was reversed, would Brandon and the media respond in the same way?

The President is right for going to Buffalo. Why didn't he go to Waukesha? -- the racial components were reversed. MSM covered up. It wasn't a "crazed black nationalist" it was "red suv".

Will the President go to Laguna Hills where a Chinese nationalist killed Taiwanese Americans?

Slink back over to DU. Nobody is taking your bait here.
