go for it....i'm waiting, name someone in mainstream media that you believe has supported a "violent act"....
But Mark, you were the one who made the accusation first so I'm waiting on you to back it up by naming ONE TIME that ANY of those you accuse did it?
But OK, I'll start with Sanford, FL
These are the facts:
NBC edited the 911 tapes to CREATE a false narrative, ignoring the truth though evidence was readily available and eventually proven in a trial. Heck, I knew them immediately with a small bit of research but apparently the major networks don't have the internet or someone who can read?
Then almost every other major network piled on the false narrative, though again, the facts contradicted their reports and were readily available from the very beginning until the aquittal.
The truth is readily available for even you to see, but have you looked? Or do you just swallow the narrative you are given without critical examination? You seem too intelligent for that, bro.
THIS FALSE NARRATIVE was an attempt to start a race war.
It was a call to violence, that was supported by $100,000 being spent by the so-called "Justice Dept" on Al Sharpton and ACORN thugs going to start trouble in Sanford
http://reason.com/archives/2013/07/27/z ... hanks-to-mThis narrative transformed Zimmerman, a man of racially mixed heritage that included white, Hispanic and black roots (a grandmother who helped raise him had an Afro-Peruvian father), into an honorary white male steeped in white privilege. It has cast him as a virulent racist even though he once had a black business partner, mentored African-American kids, lived in a neighborhood about 20 percent black, and participated in complaints about a white police lieutenant’s son getting away with beating a homeless black man.
This narrative has perpetuated the lie that Zimmerman’s history of calls to the police indicates obsessive racial paranoia. Thus, discussing the verdict on the PBS NewsHour, University of Connecticut professor and New Yorker contributor Jelani Cobb asserted that “Zimmerman had called the police 46 times in previous six years, only for African-Americans, only for African-American men.” Actually, prior to the call about Martin, only four of Zimmerman’s calls had to do with African-American men or teenage boys (and two of them were about individuals who Zimmerman thought matched the specific description of burglary suspects). Five involved complaints about whites, and one about two Hispanics and a white male; others were about such issues as a fire alarm going off, a reckless driver of unknown race, or an aggressive dog.
In this narrative, even Zimmerman’s concern for a black child—a 2011 call to report a young African-American boy walking unsupervised on a busy street, on which the police record notes, “compl[ainant] concerned for well-being”—has been twisted into crazed racism. Writing on the website of The New Republic, Stanford University law professor Richard Thompson Ford describes Zimmerman as “an edgy basket case” who called 911 about “the suspicious activities of a seven year old black boy.” This slander turns up in other left-of-center sources, such as ThinkProgress.org.
Accounts of the incident itself have also been wrapped in false narrative—including such egregious distortions as NBC’s edited audio of Zimmerman’s 911 call which made him appear to say that Martin was “up to no good” because “he looks black.” (In fact, Zimmerman explained that Martin was “walking around and looking about” in the rain, and mentioned his race—of which he initially seemed unsure—only in response to the dispatcher’s question.)
While this falsehood was retracted and cost several NBC employees their jobs, other fake facts still circulate unchecked: most notably, that Zimmerman disobeyed police orders not to follow Martin (or even, as Cobb and another guest asserted on the NewsHour, not to get out of his car). In fact, there was no such order. The dispatcher asked if Zimmerman was following the teenager; Zimmerman said yes, the dispatcher said, “We don’t need you to do that,” and Zimmerman replied, “Okay.” (Just before this, the dispatcher had made comments that could be construed as asking him to watch Martin, such as, “Just let us know if he does anything else.”)
No one except Zimmerman knows whether he continued to track Martin—or, as he claims, headed back to his truck only to have Martin confront him. No one but Zimmerman knows who initiated physical violence. Both eyewitness testimony and forensic evidence, including injuries to Zimmerman’s face and the back of his head, supported his claim that he was being battered when he fired the gun. It was certainly enough to create reasonable doubt. Yet accounts that deplore the verdict often completely fail to mention Zimmerman’s injuries. Thus, Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson says only that an unarmed “skinny boy” could not have been a serious threat to “a healthy adult man who outweighs him by 50 pounds”—nearly doubling the actual 27-pound difference between Martin and Zimmerman and omitting the fact that Martin was four inches taller.
The false narrative also makes it axiomatic that a black man in Zimmerman’s shoes wouldn’t stand a chance—especially if he had shot someone white. Never mind examples to the contrary, such as a 2009 case in Rochester, New York in which a black man, Roderick Scott, shot and killed an unarmed white teenager and was acquitted. Scott, who had caught 17-year-old Christopher Cervini and two other boys breaking into a car, said that the boy charged him and he feared for his life. (While the analogy has been decried as false in a number of Internet discussions because Scott actually saw Cervini doing something illegal, this is irrelevant to the self-defense claim: stealing from a car does not call for execution.)On August 14, 2012, Vice President Joe Biden told a largely black audience in Danville, Virginia, that Republicans wanted to “put y’all back in chains.” That is an offensively dangerous lie, designed to anger the most base of racial animus....so what do you suppose Joe wanted to accomplish, if not violence?
Why has no one in the DNC called for his head, when even you know a Republican VP would
never get away with the same thing? Will you say that is wrong?
In 2010, after being stonewalled by his own department, Christopher Coates, former voting chief for the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, testified that Holder’s decision to drop an already-won voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party was due to “pressure” from the NAACP. Did you not also see those
gangsters standing in front of a polling station with clubs threatening violence to keep white voters away? How much more proof do you need than that one? Shall we now move on to the same false narrative that promoted violence in Ferguson? And it is still being spun though the truth is known. Really, I could get writer's cramp listing all the ways the leftists (democrats) have promoted racial violence in just the last year.
I don't hate anyone. There are only good people and bad people in all sizes, shapes, and colors..and they are all uniquely made in His image. As a human being who happens to also be a Christian, I resent the recently aggressive attacks of the media to portray Christians as hating homosexuals when I know that it simply isn't true. However, being forced into participating in another person's "culture" should not be a pre-requisite for good citizenship in a free nation. English is not a mandatory language anymore, either by the way.
I have lots of Christian friends and a few of them have no desire, nor idea how, to deal with their fear on this subject. They might never meet a gay person in their life so what does it matter? They aren't actively hunting them down, as is the reverse case now.
But I can say that none of my friends hate anyone, and I wouldn't hang out with real people who did! (but you never know in a virtual group like this one)
So I've rambled long enough....and I've only asked you for one example to back up your accusation. Speak now or I'll consider it an admission of factual error.
That gets a hard slap on the pinky finger of your choice hand, according to Bandmix Sharia.
