No Facts, No Peace

Ann Coulter

 
"It's important to remember that, in police shooting cases like the one in Ferguson, Missouri, the initial facts are often wrong. You don't want to end up looking like Rich Lowry, National Review editor, whose March 23, 2012, column on the Trayvon Martin shooting was titled, "Al Sharpton Is Right." 

"Early accounts are especially unreliable when reporters think they have a white racism story. Stirring up racial hatred is how journalists make up for sending their own kids to lily-white private schools. 

"As detailed in my book Mugged: Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama, the old media's standard for any police shooting of a black person is: "Racist until proved innocent.' " ...
...
"In less than two weeks, the original version of the racist police execution of Michael Brown -- or "Big Mike" -- has already undergone major revisions. We were told:

"-- Big Mike was the sweetest kid, he'd never hurt a flea.

"Then we got the store surveillance video of him robbing a liquor store and manhandling the clerk.

"Perhaps Big Mike committed his first-ever crime 11 minutes before his encounter with Officer Darren Wilson, but it doesn't look good.

"-- He was shot in the back.

"At least two autopsies now establish Big Mike was not shot in the back.

"-- He didn't touch the police officer.

"This week, we saw the X-ray of Officer Wilson's fractured eye socket." .
