Mostly peaceful protest?
Or “nothing to see here” now that Joe is in charge!

Saw a lot of people demanding justice for her as well. Those same people were very callous about black men getting shot by police, too.

This is your response? Do you not have any empathy? Shameful.

You notice protests in July. You notice none now.

You ask a question about the difference. You have your character questioned. This is where we are.

It's kind of a minor story in the big picture thanks to the Trumptard insurrection in DC and Trump needing to be impeached again for inciting a coup.

Sad and sucks. The news won’t cover it 24/7 now that the election is over. They will wait for the next opportune time to create racial division. Probably the next election.

Also, if it was today's headline on CNN, OP and mountaineers would be complaining about that too.
No winning with stupid.

You could be right. If so, it supports his point.

His original post was about no riots. CNN isn't all over it because there are no riots, which makes it not as big a story. It was always about the riots, from the rioters on up.
He had his character questioned because he noticed no rioters. No one is questioning the character of media because they give little attention to the incident or the lack of rioters. It was always all about the riots, wasn't it? Its all BLM wanted, and its all anyone covered.

I don't know what point you're trying to make.

That it should be a bigger story? That mental health calls shouldn't be death sentences? That police respond to situations differently based on race? FWIW, I have seen the videos and still have no idea what really happened. You can see the guy come out with his hands up then it cuts away and he's tasered (tazed?) then shot and killed. I couldn't figure out how/why things escalated. Maybe it's not getting more coverage for the same reason, everyone is waiting to find out more.

You should be outraged whenever you feel outraged.

Probably because it happens all of the time and it seems unimportant in the scheme of the huge news in the world right now.

I agree with you that it is a shame CNN has not covered this story at all. I think it is important that the media continues to shine a light on how people in the country are treated by police officers, especially black people and people suffering from mental illness. Despite the truly sad outcome, I want to thank for sharing this story with all of us. It is good to remain aware of what continues to happen around the country outside of DC.
