Crime reports that lead with generic descriptions like a āDallas manā or an āOklahoma motherā can mislead casual readers and listeners as to the actual identity of perpetrators. Peruse this small sampling of news items from the past two weeks:
I donāt need to read the samples because I know what they say. Our news sources go to great lengths to avoid terms like āblack,ā āMuslim,ā āIllegal,ā in their effort to be āfair and balanced.ā
Hooey!
We also notice the prolific word āallegedā in every single crime report.
Open-borders advocates are in on the downplay. The left-leaning Marshall Project resorted to weasel words and meaningless qualifiers recently when it opined: āMost types of crime had an almost flat trend line, indicating that changes in undocumented populations had little or no effect on crime in the various metro areas under survey. Murder was the only type of crime that appeared to show a rise, but again, the difference was small and uncertain (effectively zero).ā
