Draggingtree Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 RedState: Where Is Liberal Rage Over Mass Shooting In New Orleans? By: Caleb Howe (Diary) | November 24th, 2015 at 04:00 AM The location is New Orleans; home of many political footballs in the last decade. The incident was a shooting; the most (forgive me) triggering situation possible in American discourse. The number of victims was 17; more than were shot in Charleston. The setting? A playground. A playground. This is news from Louisiana on Sunday. Seventeen people were shot but survived when gunfire erupted on on a playground where a block party was going in New Orleans. If you did not hear about it, do not be surprised. It was barely news. It is amazing to think that there was not a huge media blitz, that there were not the standard outrageous, grandstanding tweets, or the ridiculous parade of pseudo-experts on CNN and MSNBC to spend hours talking about gun control. The endless blog posts, the overwrought editorials. None of those. And why is that? Here is a description of the incident from the Chicago Tribune: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
