Does The New York Times Actually Care About Mass Shootings?

 
Any black person who is more worried about his child being killed by the police than another black is an idiot. But I don't believe any normal black person does believe that. Joy Ann Reid probably believes it. Yamiche Alcindor believes it. And everyone who reads The New York Times believes it. So the killings will go on. And so will the cover-up.

 Ann Coulter (townhall.com)  "Did you know there was a mass shooting in Indianapolis over the weekend? I briefly saw it on a news crawl, but didn't hear another word about it, so, by Monday, I assumed I had dreamt it.

"Nope. There was a real mass shooting, sending seven kids aged 12 to 17 to the hospital, one in critical condition. The gunfire came from a group of juveniles gathered outside a shopping mall in downtown Indianapolis Saturday night.

"The New York Times didn't report the shooting, which I found odd, because the gunmen were almost certainly black, meaning it was the gun's fault.

"I say "almost certainly black" because kids as young as 12 were out on a downtown city street, unsupervised, at 11:36 p.m. the night before Easter; a Google search of "Indianapolis mugshots shootings" looks like Gemini's artificial intelligence version of a Founding Father; and also -- the Times didn't mention it.

"Luckily for the kids, police were on the scene in about 10 seconds. Twenty-five officers happened to be patrolling downtown on account of this being the third consecutive weekend in Indianapolis with a mass shooting.

"The previous weekend's gunplay left one man dead and five wounded; the earlier shooting also killed one and wounded five. The Times didn't report those incidents either.

"By contrast, last August, the Times was all over a shooting at a Jacksonville, Florida, dollar store. I'm not sure why ..."
