Another mass shooting
Re: Another mass shooting
soo the first cop's radio didn't work, the security cameras didn't work, the trains weren't stopped, $10+ billion dollar nypd budget bigger than most other country's entire military, cops supposed to be all over the subway stations, yet some dood wearing a gas mask still shot the place up and walked right out still at large.
better give even more money to the cops, I guess.

Re: Another mass shooting
i thought i heard that it just so happens that the cameras where most of this occurred weren’t functional
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Really? Because CNN covered this one extensively as well.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 7:47 pmIt shouldn't.
But fox covers it more when it's a black or brown shooter....and cnn seems to cover it more when it's a white male shooter.
Agendas, audiences, and such.

I am sure they did a fine job covering it...and yet you were unhappy it got top billing on fox.twocoach wrote: ↑Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:37 pmReally? Because CNN covered this one extensively as well.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 7:47 pmIt shouldn't.

Re: Another mass shooting
Unhappy? No. But terrible guess, though. I was just surprised because they typically give these types of events lower tiered coverage. Then I saw a description of the shooter and was not surprised at all.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:46 pmI am sure they did a fine job covering it...and yet you were unhappy it got top billing on fox.twocoach wrote: ↑Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:37 pmReally?

Re: Another mass shooting
You got some sort of data to prove CNN covered this as much as fox? Or that fox usually gives these "lower tiered" coverage? (Whatever that means)
Sounds like you're giving your opinion and I am giving mine.

Re: Another mass shooting
I'll try to remember to screen grab the FoxNews coverage of the next mass shooting by a white person. Unfortunately, I'll probably only have to wait a week or two.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:59 pmSpeaking of being a slave to narratives....twocoach wrote: ↑Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:56 pmUnhappy?

Re: Another mass shooting
Fair enough. I find both stations to be highly agenda driven.
Re: Another mass shooting
Suspect taken into custody.
Of course, the guy who caught him was not one of the 35,000 NYPD cops, but some bodega clerk named Zach.

Re: Another mass shooting
Might as well just get rid of all the cops then, right? since a crimestoppers tip is what got him. That's all we need.
Re: Another mass shooting
crime stoppers worked the way it is supposed to work. excellent.

Re: Another mass shooting
And then sat around waiting for the cops to actually show up, for so long he eventually got bored, and started walking around the hood, at which point ol’ Zach finally did the police work for them.
