AP “chaperone” picture—only white faces, so you have to think the killer was white, too!
Re-posted by Nicholas Stix
The photo accompanying this story makes no sense. It’s not connected by a caption, or by a reference in the story itself.
It’s what I call a chaperone picture. When a media outlet runs a story on a black criminal, it likes to have pictures of whites. Usually, the whites are suspects from unrelated crimes. (The mug shots may be from an advertiser, but somehow its mugs are never black.) It’s to make readers think “white.” This story may tell of black felons, and even have pictures of black suspects (though not so much anymore), but the outlet will try, by hook or by crook, to distract you from the crime at hand.
The media now even fill their stories of heinous black criminals with rhetorical chaperones. Thus, every story I’ve seen so far on this murder both quotes the mayor’s ridiculous assertion that this murder had nothing to do with race, and contains an irrelevant passage recalling Dylann Roof’s mass murder in Emanuel A.M.E. church.
If the killing had nothing to do with race, why the visual and rhetorical overkill?
As far as Russ Bynum, Seanna Adcox, Jeffrey Collins and Meg Kinnard are concerned, in the murder of Anthony Shane Whiddon, race wasn’t everything, race was the only thing.

Chef slain at Charleston restaurant; suspect shot by police
By Russ Bynum
Associated Press
CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- A fired dishwasher shot and killed a chef and held a person hostage for about three hours before he was shot by police at a crowded restaurant in a tourist-heavy area of downtown Charleston on Thursday, authorities and one of the restaurant's owners said.
The black killer was not “shot by police at a crowded restaurant”; he shot by police kn a virtually empty restaurant.]
The hostage was freed unharmed, Mayor John Tecklenburg said. The shooting took place at Virginia's restaurant on the usually crowded King Street, a row of shops and nice dining that caters to both tourists and residents in South Carolina's largest and most historic city.
Tecklenburg quickly said the shooting was "the act of a disgruntled employee" and not a terrorist attack or a hate crime in a city where nine black church members were killed by a white man two years ago.
[Tecklenburg had no way of knowing that so soon. And why would Russ Bynum and his fellow AP activists emphasize that this murder was not racially motivated, but Dylann Roof’s Emanuel A.M.E. Church mass murder was?]
"This was a tragic case of a disturbed individual, I think, with a history of some mental health challenges," Tecklenburg said at a news conference.
[And that wasn’t true of Dylann Roof? And I’ll bet the murderer of Anthony Shane Whiddon had quite a criminal history, as well. But since the media have refused to disclose his name, we can’t even look into that.]
The gunman killed Virginia's executive chef, 37-year-old Anthony Shane Whiddon, deputy Charleston County coroner Sheila Williams said late Thursday.
Authorities had not released the name of the wounded gunman. They initially said they believed there were "a couple" or a "small number" of hostages.
The shooting was reported shortly after noon Thursday.
Peter Siegert IV and his family from Galesville, Maryland, had just been served fried chicken at the restaurant when he noticed waitresses and kitchen workers leaving hurriedly through the front door. Then he saw a man in a backward ball cap and an apron enter the dining room from the back of the restaurant.
"He said, 'There's a new boss in town,'" Siegert told The Associated Press. "I don't think anybody realized he had a gun until after he locked the door. And then he turned around and had a revolver in his hand. He never pointed it at any of the patrons. He held it by his side."
[The killer’s introduction to his hostages was a variation on the Eddie Murphy line to the “rednecks” in the bar, in the movie, 48 Hours: “There’s a new sheriff in town!” I’ll bet he was trying to imitate Murphy.]
The man told all the customers to get onto the floor, Siegert said, then directed them to crawl to the back of the restaurant - where the rear exits remained unlocked.
"He told everybody to get out," he said. "Everybody started running for the doors."
One of the restaurant's owners, John Aquino, told WCSC-TV that a dishwasher who had been fired came back to the restaurant and shot a chef to get revenge.
The restaurant was packed with a lunchtime crowd and the first officers to arrive were able to get the man who was shot and a number of diners out safely, interim Charleston Police Chief Jerome Taylor said.
The site is a few blocks away from Emanuel AME church, where nine black members of a church were killed by a white man during a June 2015 Bible study. Dylann Roof was sentenced to death in the case.
It is also just several blocks from where more than 100 cruise ships dock in Charleston each year.
Associated Press writers Seanna Adcox, Jeffrey Collins and Meg Kinnard in Columbia contributed to this report.

I'll never understand the media for ignoring and excusing black criminal behavior(and behavior in general).Colin Kapernick is treated as a hero for disrespecting the US Anthem.Rallies to get him a job are held and covered EXTENSIVELY on Negro Nightly News.Just to be fair (sarcasm),Lesta also had a story last night,of a priest who had been a member of the KKK.Very apologetic,the white man was.The narrative becomes more extreme every day on that sorry excuse for a "news"cast.

“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.”
“The most insidious power the media has, is the power to ignore.” (Chris Plante, WMAL)
The reason for the Liberal Media double standard in ignoring the minority racism and anti-white violence in general, and at events like these, is explained here:
“Wherever multiculturalism goes, it brings Victimism with it. Victimism is an integral part of the multi-culti ideological package, and its practitioners, whom we may call Victimists, have two principal concerns: They invent fake stories and images that are intended to bring sympathy, admiration, glory and political advantage to groups of people who have been officially designated as Victims by the multi-culti establishment; and they strive to disseminate their fake stories and images in the guise of “history.”
....>
Among the racial groups represented in the population of the United States, two have not merely been certified as Victims but have also been selected for especially lavish treatment by the Victimists. These groups — Amerindians and American blacks — figure prominently in the multi-culti version of “American history,” where they are sanitized and glorified beyond recognition, and are depicted as the hapless prey of evil white men.
Sanitization is an indispensable part of this endeavor, because certified Victims must always be depicted as innocent, righteous paragons of humanity. The sanitization process consists largely of hiding or denying any facts which show that the Victims had victims of their own, whom they slaughtered, displaced, subjugated, enslaved or exploited....." Excerpt from ‘More Fake “History” from Glencoe’, by William J. Bennetta

So....
"Officially Certified Victim Groups must not be shown to have victims of their own."
As with all Black on White, Black on Asian Violence, which is approx. 85% of all interracial violence.... Liberal Media Rule #1: In order to maintain Blacks' preeminent status as America's #1 'Officially Certified Victim Group', said Victims must not be shown to have victims of their own, or the White tax paying public will lose sympathy, patience, and the Liberal instilled sense of collective guilt, in order for the majority population to accept being openly discriminated against in college admissions, government contracts, hiring, ect. And to keep the majority of Blacks under the government's wing, and voting Democrat.
The Liberal Victimists and their MSM has been practicing that rule for years, while doing everything in their power to make this protected demographic feel they are the "poor hapless victims of evil white men", while at the same time portraying them in the culture of popular media as "innocent, righteous paragons of humanity, sanitized and glorified beyond recognition."
Remember these rules as dictated by Liberalism:
1. To criticize White Racism and Anti-Black Violence, makes one a "Social Justice Warrior". To criticize Black Racism and Anti-White Violence, make one a "White Supremacist" and a "Racist".
2. Generalizations should never be used against any race, religion, or group, unless they're "White People", "Catholic Priests", or "Cops". Or the discussion is about slavery. Then the generalizations about "White People" can fly, without any complaints about racial generalizing from Social Justice Warriors.
3. Officially Certified Victim Groups must not be shown to have victims of their own whom they "murdered, slaughtered, raped, displaced, subjugated, enslaved or exploited."
4. Despite being the most violent demographic, committing approximately 50% of murders, while only making up 12% of the population, a certain demographic must always be portrayed on the Movie screen, on TV, and in Commercials, as innocent, morally and intellectually superior, wise, righteous paragons of humanity.
And even though approximately 85% of interracial violence, including assault, murder and rape between blacks and whites, is black on white; never forget this Liberal Rule:
5. It's never racist hate when a minority attacks, assaults, rapes, burns, punches, slaps, stabs, strangles, shoots, or beats a white person. It's only racist hate for a white person to notice.

Appreciate the feedback.My quick responses to each point.
1. To criticize White Racism and Anti-Black Violence, makes one a "Social Justice Warrior". To criticize Black Racism and Anti-White Violence, make one a "White Supremacist" and a "Racist".
GRA:What rewards do "Social Justice Warriors" receive?They're certainly hypocritical in their views and can't possibly believe the fraudulent information they dish out in demonstrations and interviews.
2. Generalizations should never be used against any race, religion, or group, unless they're "White People", "Catholic Priests", or "Cops". Or the discussion is about slavery. Then the generalizations about "White People" can fly, without any complaints about racial generalizing from Social Justice Warriors.
GRA:This is true-without argument.But whites are still in control of most businesses(including media).Why play along with it?Why not take care of your own race first?Survival of yourself,your family and people who look like you would seem the logical plan of action.
3. Officially Certified Victim Groups must not be shown to have victims of their own whom they "murdered, slaughtered, raped, displaced, subjugated, enslaved or exploited."
GRA:White people can see through the B.S. or Trump would not have won.
4. Despite being the most violent demographic, committing approximately 50% of murders, while only making up 12% of the population, a certain demographic must always be portrayed on the Movie screen, on TV, and in Commercials, as innocent, morally and intellectually superior, wise, righteous paragons of humanity.
And even though approximately 85% of interracial violence, including assault, murder and rape between blacks and whites, is black on white; never forget this Liberal Rule:
5. It's never racist hate when a minority attacks, assaults, rapes, burns, punches, slaps, stabs, strangles, shoots, or beats a white person. It's only racist hate for a white person to notice.
GRA:My conclusion would be...what you list is very probably their warped,but very insincere mindset.It's also self destructive to whites.These whites cannot ACTUALLY be in favor of blacks unless they believe blacks are inferior.If THAT'S true,why waste time on people who are hopelessly limited in their brain power?It's up to us--as a 65% majority group to take steps to reverse the last few years of insanity.Mass demonstrations at NBC,CNN,CBS on a regular basis.Demands that free speech be returned,by allowing open discussions on blogs that the networks have shut down.They must be re-opened without censorship.The easy way to change the country for the better would be for whites to demand that blacks pull their fair share--a gradual reduction of government handouts-for starters.
Thanks for your ideas.

"He never pointed it at any of the patrons. He held it by his side."
Merely producing the weapon is brandishing. A firearm under all circumstances says you intend to kill.
"Who in the hell is 'disgruntled' about losing a dish washing job?Who gets FIRED from a dish washing job in the first place?"
Probably late for work all the time, not showing up most of the time, high on some stuff all the time. Lazy and not doing the job correctly when he did do it, etc.
It appears the "alleged" killer is going to survive his wounds. I couldn't find an update on his condition. There will be a trial in a year or two with the "Crazy Card" defense. The story is already going down the memory hole.
