3 Muslims "executed" in the USA

[The Green Bean]

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...h-carolina-at-their-family-home-10037734.html

Nothing on mainstream American media.

I am busy worrying about more pressing issues in my own country to care about 3 Arabs shot dead in a foreign country. But the silence of the American media makes me wonder hmm: what if the conspiracy theorists in Pakistan are right? If the victims were Jewish, or worse, if the shooter was Muslim, the collective American media would have been enjoying multiple orgasms.

Edit: Apparently, CNN and others have started reporting on this story, going as far as making it the "lead story on their page with obnoxious sized 24 font."

Well, it is like 3am - 6am right now in most states, so give it a few hours.

This is what happens, though, when the demonization of a group is tolerated, which is why I don't tolerate it.

International and social media has been reporting the shootings for 12+ hours now. That would be 3PM-6PM in most states.

It happened 12 hours ago and already ABC, CBS, and Fox have stories about it. Seems like the conspiracy theorists in Pakistan need to save their outrage.

Here's an Indian site referring to the social media outrage due to lack of coverage given to this by the American media.

No mainstream American media outlet had reported the shootings until a few minutes ago. International media did so 12 hours ago. Perhaps they should give the same "already coverage" to other terrorist incidents involving less likeable religions. Or perhaps atheists are just killers; never terrorists.

So? I can't help it that a handful of people have unreasonable expectations and don't understand news cycles. American news outlets mostly shut down every day at 5:00 p.m., and resume work in the morning. If it's not thoroughly covered in today's news, only then might you have a reasonable complaint.

Edit: I'd also add I find it pretty shameful that you all are more concerned about the media coverage than the murders themselves. You are exploiting the deaths of those students for political purposes.

That's bullshit. You've made three posts about it already. It's got your panties all twisted up. Sorry, zero fucks given.

 

[Double Trouble]

I feel sorry for the victims and the families, but those expressing outrage over the supposed lack of coverage and comparing it to the murder of cartoonists over a perceived offense are just complete morons.

We don't even know what happened here, other than three people were killed. We don't know the motivation for the killing, and we know for certain that unlike with the murder of Charlie Hedbo people, there won't be an outpouring of support for the murderer(s) -- the rest of society will say "that's awful, what can we do to not have innocent people murdered?".

Idiots in pakistan or some other shithole country whining about it can shove it.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

Looks like it was reported in a reasonable amount of time.

I like pie

 

[JEDIYoda]

nothing to see here. Other than the Op`s false outrage!! Move along folks!!

 

[shortylickens]

Umm, this was all over the news at McDonalds. And I was there at 0500.

Mainstream media is doing just fine. Also, putting a lie in quotes is still a lie.

Motion to ban OP and have mods change the title to something more accurate.

I don't think you have read the independent article, or even its headline.

Did it take 12 hours for the Paris murders to be reported?

And I really find it hard to sympathize with 3 people that I've never heard of. Tens of people are killed in my country by religious and secular terrorists for their beliefs.

These murders don't affect me much, but neither do the other people killed by Muslim terrorist--except I have to suffer for their sins.

If you had read the independent article the motivation of the perpetrator is clearer than those killed by drones in my country.

The headline of the independent is

'Anti-theist' who used Facebook to condemn all religions is arrested over fatal 'execution-style' shooting of three young Muslims

So if a Muslim man kills it is a terrorist attack because someone allegedly heard him say a few words at the scene of the crime. But if a know religion-hater kills a few people who are devout followers of a hated religion, there is not enough information to deduce the motive of the attack.

If the tables were turned you would hear quite a different noise, fact is that a lot of supremacists here are cheering this kind of things, this is blatlantly showing in their posts, like Jedyoda, we can imagine how many threads he would had opened should the victims be jewish and the murderer muslim..

It was blatant terrorist attack, but , hey, it doesnt suit the mainstream media to call a cat a cat...

Look, we don't give a fuck about these murders. But when we didn't give a fuck about the

It's because he wasn't a Christian, notice how the liberal types always try to spin it into Christian/Jew vs. Muslim like Obama with his crusade speech,

an Atheist throws a monkey wrench in their works since many so called liberals profess religion must be the cause in such incidents, ban religion.

By demonization of a group, you must mean religion in general.

"Hicks described himself as an atheist on Facebook and posted regular images and text condemning all religions."

Seems this guy hated all religions.

For those who don't know it's at the top of the "top stories" on Google News.

There's no "allegedly" about it, if you're referring to the Charlie Hebdo attacks. It was captured on video (with audio), you dishonest derelict.

Not to mention their video taped Jihadist messages left before the attacks where they outline their martyrdom hopes

Good God, you're an imbecile.

I realize you have quite the history of trolling and looking for things to be offended and marginalized over, but drawing false equivalencies to justify your own warped, distorted views fools no one.

Grow up.

Now we're getting somewhere. It didn't take long to get your true motivations out in the light of day.

Pakistan, hmm, you guys were harboring Bin Laden.

Also on the front page of CNN.

Grow up.

When CNN was reporting it 24/7, before the appearance of a video or message, or even before it was known that the attackers were 'muslims' the audio was still an allegation. That did not stop CNN for calling it a terrorist attack by Muslims.

Why is an attack by someone who hates religion not treated the same way?

 

[brycejones]

Dang it the OP has been fooled by those pesky news outlets who covered the story.

I learned today the OP is a moron.
