Dagenham Shootings Update

Amazing. 2 people shot yesterday and it hasn't made the BBC (or any news media).

From the comments :

"Well, they were right! Front page of the 'B&D Post' this morning: "Shooting:Two left for dead"

Apparantly, the victims of the 'Chicago style shooting' (the gang used tommyguns..? Escaped in cars with running boards..?) were rushed to hospital and are serious but stable - the gang who shot them escaped. No names or descriptions.

The police's Trident team are investigating..... "

No, it means there is a deep dish wound...

It means they were seen carrying their guns in violin cases.

Yes, the Trident Team is an enormous clue why the BBC isn't reporting it...no profitable victim angle. Yes, yes, they can try and blame "white society" for black gang murders but even the craziest liberals know that's a hard sell these days.

Ah yes Trident was the give away and it seems the online edition of the B&D Post has giving in to calls to reveal their true colours !!

The BBC have no time for minor stories like this one, much more important is this shooting, which involved a white man, wearing a hoodie, no less !

Has anyone seen the latest on Inayat Bunglawalla and Little Green Footballs?

Why do people make a big racial thing every time someone gets shot? Isn't it bad enough people are getting killed, without having to read smug anonymous comments about the liberal media.

Sunny, you used (or still do) run a site called "Asians in media", if you are going to be ethnocentric can you blame others?

Its not 'liberal' media, its media bias, so clear even I can see it.

Do me a favour Sunny. The MSM do a hoopla when a non-white is the victim but when the roles are reversed, which they are disproportionally, suddenly its a big yawn. By now a lot of people have noticed and are given to wonder how much this is deliberate.

What the last two said, plus when a news outlet censors the news, then that's serious matter. Just what else else aren't they reporting ?

dave - yes I still run it. I'm not blaming ethnocentricism, but this victim mentality that overwhelmingly pervades any discussion of race.

Everyone just sees a conspiracy against their race. And they use any event that fits into their mindset as political football. It gets boring after a while.

Damn you, staghounds, you beat me to it!

Well I agree the 'victim' mindset is a very bad thing, but I am not sure thats what this is.
The fact is the MSM highlight 'white' crimes and do their best to downplay the crimes of non-whites, no more clearly can this be seen than by the reporting of the Black vs Asian riots in Birmingham earlier this year, if they had been whites vs others it would have got 24/7 coverage but as it was it only got the most briefest possible mention. And that was only after it had been going on for a few days.

If the MSM are going to hide things people will start to think there is a bigger conspiracy even if there is not.

Sunny,

What alternative is there to 'making smug comments about the liberal media' in response to these events? If anyone suggested mass Police raids on Black 'no-go' areas to disarm and jail the gangs which own these weapons they'd be called a racist, fascist and every other name under the sun by you and all your 'not at all ethnocentric' commenters. So all we are really left with is pointing out the media's constant obscuring of the ethnic identity of non-white criminals as opposed to its salivation over that of white ones.
