Meantime, the gun-murder rate in Jamaica is among the highest in the world. But nobody mentioned that. In fact, the word "Jamaica" can't be found in any of these penetrating analyses, even though police will tell you off the record that 80 per cent or more of the city's gun crime is Jamaican-related.Looks like somebody else is noticing that elephant in the room. The gutless blood-dancing politicians, the hand-wringing enuretics and the manipulating social engineers would have the gullible public believe it's all about inanimate objects.
Some are so paralyzed at the prospect of being charged with bigotry that they'll sabotage the truth. Others just have an agenda.
This would make an interesting statistical analysis for John Lott, who demonstrated media bias against mentioning defensive gun use. How many articles about "gun crime" mention the demographic and cultural trends wherein most of it takes place?
I've followed quite a few of gun deaths, and how the media headlines and reports such incidents. It always is mentioned first and much moreso that a gun killed a man rather than who killed a man. And when we do hear a name, we rarely hear the race, ethnicity, cultural aspects, or gang affiliation of such man.
ReplyDeleteThis problem is more widespread than most think.
Exactly how does one "murder" a gun?
