Media again playing GUESS THE RACES: Level 4 Media Cloaking Device Activated ! “Jacksonville”, “Students”, “two men”, “approximately 18-years old”, “one was not wearing a shirt”:
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — School officials say two students have been shot on a school bus in Florida.
[…] A spokesperson for the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO) said Thursday that witnesses reported seeing two men, who looked approximately 18 years old, firing at the bus. One was not wearing a shirt, the spokesperson said.
[…] Ford says the bus serves three alternative educational schools in the area of the shooting. (read more)
You won’t find the race of the shooters described if you look through the Associated Press report on the shooting either (link)
Another media report goes further with a description of events, even giving the name of a victim, but stops short when it comes to the shooters; leaving this dangling participle:
[…] Burns said police were searching for two suspects but a detailed description wasn’t provided by police other than describing them as young men. (link)
A third media report offers no help in identifying the shooters:
Ford says two people fired shots at the school bus. She says it is not clear if the people who fired the shots were students or adults. (link)
However, media report #4 says police want the public’s help. And so a reporter actually went out to ask the grandmother of one of the victims “who shot your granddaughter”? Because, well, it would appear the police need help to find out who they should be looking for:
[…] The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office called on members of the public to help investigators locate the two suspects responsible, who remain on the loose, police said at a news briefing just before 6 p.m
[…] About 4:30 p.m., the suspects opened fire at the school bus about a quarter-mile away from the intersection of Blanding Boulevard and West 118th, wounding two of the roughly 30 students on board, police said.
[…] First Coast News spoke to the grandmother of one of the victims. That victim, identified as Shakayla Singleton, was shot in the face on the school bus today and is expected to survive, her family told us. Singleton is enrolled at James Weldon Johnson Academy
[…] The suspects are described as black males in their late teens, one of them shirtless, according to the Sheriff’s Office. (read more)
Yet another typical example of the media throwing out the racial cloaking device and leaving it up to an independent local outfit to track down the uncomfortable facts.
Black lives don’t much matter to the professional grievance class when it’s black kids killing other black kids…. and the PC rule book for the media doesn’t include a chapter on being brutally honest.
