    Your misconstruing my statements. All I’m trying to say is that there’s a disparity between the way the media covers white men’s crimes and they way they cover the same type of crimes from minority groups, and that I think there should be more consistency from the people we trust to provide us information about what’s going on in the world

      Yeah, it’s almost like it is dangerous to suggest that minority groups are dangerous, so journalists need to be careful with their wording when talking negatively of minorities. It’s almost like historically people used stories of evil minorities to murder minorities.
