I've been waiting for a more acceptable news media to cover this (BBC, SKY Guardian etc) but there seems little interest in it.


If 4 White people abduct disabled Clinton supporting black man and torture him and stream it live on Facebook it would be be viral in minutes ... wouldn't it?

I'm not sure what you want us - or the wider world - to say about this Talbot


And yet you wanted us and the wider world to contribute to this drivel ... in NEWS!

There aren't anything like enough here ... //

Mocking one of my threads does not big up the validity of yours, or explain why you are so cross that people are not responding as you obviously think they should.

[andy-hughes]

Talbot - //And yet another couple of irrelevant posts. //

It's not that they are 'irrelevant' - it's that they are not answering your questions in the way you want them to - which is not the same thing.

I'm a liberal.

It is clearly a hate crime and it is horrific and brutal.

It is being reported as such by the BBC and the Guardian too:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/04/facebook-live-stream-video-man-attacked-chicago-trump

(this article has been up since 3am, and was among the top google results I found about it)

Liberals aren't playing this down, they're as horrified as you.

[-Talbot-]

You have been watching the American news channels Krom?

They are playing it down and it is only because of the social media sites that some ABers don't do that it will not actually get swept under the carpet.

[andy-hughes]

Talbot - you have invented a scecnario whereby this crime was enacted by white people, and decided on an outcome.

I am unsure what the point of this is - but you have put it out there, and then systematically either attacked or ridiculed, or both, posters who are not running with this in the way you think they should.

Where you do want this to go now - since it is clearly not going the way you want it to so far?

Maybe it is time to simply accept that are not biting on your imaginary scenario, and move on to something else.

// Johnson said authorities currently don't believe the crime was politically motivated, despite the disparaging remarks about Trump.

"I think some of it is just stupidity, people just ranting about something that they think might make a headline," Johnson said. "I don't think that at this point we have anything concrete to really point us in that direction, but we'll keep investigating and we'll let the facts guide us on how this concludes." //

Give it a rest with the a... 'attacked ridiculed vitriolic' nonsense andy.

There are some commentators that get to be heard Talbot, this chap for instance.

Why don't you answer the points I am raising with you?

[naomi24]

Talbot, //If 4 White people abduct disabled Clinton supporting black man and torture him and stream it live on Facebook it would be be viral in minutes ... wouldn't it?

Has anyone bothered to answer that? //

I'll answer that. Yes, it would have gone viral within minutes.

[jno]

Has anyone bothered to answer that?

My answer is: No.

[naomi24]

jno, I've answered it.

[-Talbot-]

I think jno was playing games ...

Her answer is no

[jno]

naomi, your answer wasn't there when I began my post. I was quoting from, and answering, the OP, the same as you. But a different answer.

[-Talbot-]

Never heard of him, Randy. I listen to Tommy Sotomayor who definitely calls a a spade a spade.

[RandyMarsh]

I also follow Tommy and his BT 100

[mikey4444]

Talbot....You asked a question about whether its a hate crime and we all answered YES.

You have now become a vexatious poster on this issue, and are clearly still arguing, for arguments sake.

That is why I shall ignore it from now, and I suggest that everybody else should consider doing so as well.

There isn't a cover up. Stop using tragedies to push your stupid conspiracy theories, it is extremely crass and makes you look extremely insincere.
