I first saw this story on CNN. Of course CNN completely omits any identifying characteristics of the perps other than to call them "men."

You have to go to the foreign press to get that information. Seriously, how is our media today any different than the old Soviet state controlled media?

If white guys had held up some black kids selling lemonade you can guarantee that information would be provided.

The problem is that most violent crime is black crime so it's just pretty much expected.

I don't give a shit who is committing the crime. What's the point of reporting on the crime if you're not going to identify the people who are breaking the law. Best I can tell these "men" were still at large. Are we no longer trying to identify people who commit crime if they happen to have the protected class skin color?

I was pleasantly surprised both news sources did include the feel good ending that when the stand reopened the local police officers lined up to buy lemonade. Good on those cops.

They only did that because the kids were white.Doog_de_Jour said:I was pleasantly surprised both news sources did include the feel good ending that when the stand reopened the local police officers lined up to buy lemonade. Good on those cops.

Friends and I had Kool-Aid stands as a kid. 25 cents a cup. Couldn’t afford that fancy lemonade. Grape flavor was an option. Cherry was the customer favorite.

It's reparations. So it actually a good thing.
