I agree.That's the way most media works today. Report then verify. They all are in direct competition against facebook & twitter postings.

I agree.
The important distinction is, because the "report then verify" approach is necessary for survival, that alone is not indicative of a lack of integrity. And bear in mind I'm not talking about just Fox but all media outlets when I say that.
People have all kinds of reasons for moving. It's more complicated than just the fear of safety, although racial makeup is likely the largest reason. Monterey Bay CA is a good example, after East Asian professionals started moving in in the late 70s about a quarter of the white population left. I'm sure you'll see similar statistics regarding Vancouver. The majority of the influx is from a wealthier and better educated population that has about 1/4 or 1/5 of the white crime rate but it still has precipitated a fairly significant exodus of the white population.
the larger problem here is man made liberalism. It results in mass hysteria and irrational behavior. The alarmist hyper boil about alleged oppression and racism fanned and fueled by willing accomplices in the media and big Gov. along with endless grievance mongers designed to maintain a drum beat of anger and discontent. This is today's Democrat Party.
I believe this can be easily avoided in the future. Have the police stop killing people in their custody. In this case, it really is that simple.
the arrest and police involvement are behavior driven. Behavior matters.
Then why do people riot and burn and loot when the cops havent done anything wrong?
There was a riot on streets
Tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was participating in some anarchy
First spot we hit it was my liquor store
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford
With red lights flashin', time to retire
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire
Next stop we hit, it was the music shop,
It only took one brick to make the window drop
Finally we got our own P.A.
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today?
("Call fire and tell them respond local station out to meet us at Anaheim. It's uh, flaming up good." "10-4 Alamidos at Anaheim")
When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
So once again we filled the van until it was full
Since that day my livin' room's been much more comfortable
'Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here
It's getting harder, and harder, and harder each and every year
Some kids went in a store with their mother
I saw her when she came out she was gettin' some Pampers
They said it was for the black man
They said it was for the Mexican
And not for the white man
But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King
In this fucked-up situation and these fucked-up police
It's about comin' up and stayin' on top
And screamin' 1-8-7 on a mother fuckin' cop
It's not in the paper, it's on the wall
National guard
Smoke from all around
The news coverage is quite slanted towards the police, they constantly talk about the riots and the one single cop who got hurt. They fail to mention the dozens of citizens arrested and beaten, but who cares about citizens, right?
solution: don't riot
That is what you are suggesting these people do, beg their abusers to 'be nicer', and you actually think that will work? What a crock, those cops could be caught eating babies on film and wouldn't be indicted. No amount of begging will get criminals to stop being criminals. Cops are criminals, they are literally the exact same kind of people, just different races and social classes.
I don't see cops burning whole blocks to the ground, no. I also don't see how burning the community to the ground helps either.
Burn a police station down? Some police cars? ok MAYBE I understand that. But a CVS that was supporting the local neighborhood? A wig store? c'mon now.

Lol, I just moved into a new house last year. The neighbor to the north is a black chef and the neighbor to the south is an asian doctor married to a white pharmacist. So much for your theory.....
No I much prefer they do riot. Baltimore PD probably live in or around Baltimore and one way or another, these riots F up their lives. I like that idea better, than more of the same BS petitioning law enforcement to stop beating and harassing and robbing us. Why should we beg our abuser to stop abusing us?
BURN IT TO THE GROUND
One black chef in the neighborhood. How does that disprove anything.
Yeah because the cops that are policing these areas also live in the ghetto....right.
These riots affect no one but the rioters, and effect no positive change whatsoever.
The only thing that these riots are going to accomplish is to make life worse in every measureable way for the people living in these communities.
Yeah - Burn it to the ground! - spoken like a true pea-brain. Maybe you should get out there and riot with them? Let's see how that works out for you.
That's right! Destroying property in protest has never accomplished anything!
Well.. except maybe for the Boston Tea Party
.. or the Berlin Wall
.. or the Bastille
.. or the Stonewall riots
But mostly, they never accomplish any change!
