This file is a very brief diary of some examples of the Roanoke Times slant.

Roanoke Times, 3-26-12, Pg 3: Experts explore angle of hate crime in killing. But there's no evidence shooter was racist. Neighborhood watch was sensitized to prior black-male burglaries in the complex.
During the OJ fiasco and many other black on white crimes, voices rang out that there was a police rush to judgment that the black guy was the bad guy. To reinforce that premise enter into the scene Al Twana Sharpton to establish the loudest and most unpleasant and racist noises possible.

In 2007 Senator Obama embraced Sharpton and joined the team of “let’s not wait for the facts, let’s spearhead a rush to judgment and let’s play the race card” at every opportunity.

In July 2009 Obama played the White House race card stunt himself on behalf of Harvard Professor Henry Gates. Without any detailed information about the incident, Obama publicly declared that the police involved “acted stupidly”. Later, the facts proved the police acted with respect, reason and prudence! It was the black Professor that turned out to be a nasty and belligerent character – low media coverage on that part!

Now the country is subjected once again to the racist lynch mob demands that there’s no need to get the facts in the Trayvon Martin shooting case. Let’s try the case in the liberal media. To up the ante let’s all get on national TV and then go to Washington DC for a super photo-op with Jesse Jackson, Al Twana Sharpton and a cast of dozens of politicians.

Into the fray jumps Obama with his public pronouncement:
“If I had a son – he’d look like Trayvon.”
Let’s play the race card all the way to the White House. Obama has no idea what happened in Sanford Florida but apparently that’s not an inhibitor to having the President of The United States totally suborn the judicial system and the presumption of innocence.

What a contrast with Obama’s total lack of urgency to bring the 911 terrorists to justice and his indifference to bringing the Fort Hood terrorist to justice. Oh right, that’s because it wasn’t a terrorist attack by a Radical Muslim Terrorist – it was just “workplace violence”!

Isn’t it interesting that Obama and his AG Holder have declared that black on white crimes can never be prosecuted as hate crimes! It only applies to whities!
-
Whatever happened to the judicial process of: investigate and present the evidence to a grand jury and indict if evidence is compelling?
Now some news-light is starting to shine through and not just the racial hate and heat and smoke and nasty-noise.

Perhaps this might be an appropriate time for AG Holder to reengage with his line that America is a “Nation of White Cowards”.
