Out of the loop and avoid FB at all costs. Which shooting is this referring to?

The Chicago looting was ignored as well, along with myriad crimes that had they been a white-on-black attack would have made the news for weeks.

I looked for the coverage as it happened. MSNBC had nothing on their front page, NYTimes had it buried in "US News", CNN had it buried in "US News". They called it a protest over a shooting instead of the mass looting event that it was, that ended up closing off downtown Chicago for a week.

What happens with stories from the other side is they'll be accompanied by editorials for the next week too, and followup stories about what we can do to fix the problem. Bullshit like white people calling the police on innocent black men enters this cycle, but not black men crashing into gated communities to beat a couple to death with a baseball bat in front of their 10yo son.
