Title: Cannon Hinnants
Post by: cateyes1 on August 15, 2020, 02:29:53 pm
What do you all think of the little 5 year old boy, out riding his bike and his neighbor walks up and shoots him in the head?

Black Man Shoots White Boy. Darius N. Sessoms, 25, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder after he allegedly shot 5-year-old

One minute he is enjoying his life, the next it all ends because he rode into his neighbor's yard.' The fundraiser has since raised more than $300,000

My only question is, why wasnt it all over the news like George Floyd?

I wondered the same thing (why it wasn't on the news)

No matter what color either one is or was it should not have happened.   Everyone is wound up too tight these days.  :(

You are so right. It shouldn't matter the color but I feel it is. Why is it because a white cop knees on george floyd, someone who held a gun to a pregnant woman's stomach and he gets treated like loyalty. YET, you have a beautiful little  innocent white boy who dies by the hands of a black guy, well he doesn't even get acknowledged by the media. You honestly cant see why people are "wound" up by that?

The media didn't cover this because it doesn't fit their narrative of white people bad/minorities good. They're sick.

I meant everyone was wound up by Covid 19 and social distancing.

It doesn't fit the media's narrative for creating political unrest and public upheaval of racist police - so it is going to be a story, but not an "A Block" or "Above the Fold" story for most media outlets.

I think a big reason why this hasn't been covered/protested is because the murderer has already been detained and arrested. People are still protesting for the people who's murderers have not been arrested and cases that have still yet to see any progress towards arrests and convictions. With Cannon, there was no issue or hold up with starting the process of justice (unlike some other cases).

I think this is also a likely reason there was no coverage. As those who have been closely paying attention have seen, the mainstream media has continuously flipped back and forth between showing riots and protests (the latter which hasn't stopped since May but only gets off/on coverage when things get hectic and turn combative), COVID updates/cases, and election coverage.
