Be glad you don't live in Chicago. Big deal on the radio about State Senator Reverend Meeks. He was catching a ride after church and the person driving committed 4 traffic violations, one after another. The police sargent who saw these violations pulled the car over. Da Reverend jumped out and approached the officer who told him to get back in the car. Now there were two more cars in the Reverend's convoy that stopped and emptied out approaching the officer. Cop pulls his gun and yells "GET THE FUCK BACK IN YOUR VEHICLES".

Yep, the Rev. and pals are black so it's racial profiling, shouldn't have pulled his piece. Reverend and friends are shocked that the officer yelled fuck. I'm shocked he didn't shoot them.

"You are only getting what msm wants you to get."

i think about that alot but do not buy it. I read the NYTimes cover to cover. I think i know when news writers get carried away. I read positive articles and negative ones. Last saturday and sunday carried 20 articles on muslims, mideast, afganistan, pakistan, indonesia etc and i saw little or no bias. When we do not succeed in wars, we seek scapegoates methinks. mike
PS MSM bias much more pronounced on domestic policy in NYT i think. They cant get over the fact that krugonomics is a joke.
