To The Eagle:
There has been continuous coverage of Thursday’s murder of five white male police officers on KUOW, a National Public Radio station. One pabulum after the other offered prayers, sympathy, and love.
When a white male massacred nine black churchgoers in Charleston, the media reported the event and then moved on to other issues. Is the difference that the Dallas victims were white? Police?
We claim to be shocked and heartbroken but continue to train young, minimally educated men and women to kill in foreign lands and then offer them no future upon their return to our country.
