I haven't seen the usual blitz of media stories about which race the victims were. I sure saw a lot of stories about how the Atlantic victims were being targeted because of their race, but why isn't anybody talking about the race of the Boulder victims?
Their pictures have been shown on television as well as in various newspapers.
Employees of King Soopers were among those gunned down on Monday, alongside much-loved friends, mothers, and colleagues.

Thank you for demonstrating how shooting headlines do not include the race of the victims. Why do you think headlines are excluding race? We sure see race show up in shooting headlines a lot, but why not this time?
Nonsense. A picture is worth a thousand words. The victims were obviously all white.
Obviously you believe that the media not totally focusing on their race, in some way is an insult to your personal political fanaticism.
I would be willing to bet that the families of those lost, could not care less whether or not the media portrayed them as "white people", instead of just "people", who were tragically lost.
You are dodging discussion of how shooting headlines always include race of the victims as long as they are not white. Why aren't we seeing headlines about how a bunch of whites were shot, like we saw headlines about Asians getting shot?
I don't know where you live, but on a daily basis, since this tragedy occurred, where I live, this story has been covered with pictures of the victims, interviews with the victims families, and their friends and acquaintances.
Anyone who is not blind, knows that they were white people.
Exactly what is it that you think would change the public perception of this mass killing, if the media, in addition to their pictures, reinforced in print that they were "white people"?
It is obvious that you have a personal, racial and political agenda that you are pushing regarding their murder, which is frankly despicable.
