Coverage of this has been rather low-key, given the severity of it. Definitely something going on beneath the surface because they are not even playing the 'mental health' card (yet).

This was a 'terror' attack by any definition and yet seemingly not given any kind of real prominent coverage.

Or is it a case of black lives only truly mattering when they are ended by a white person?

You can't say things like that. Katie Hopkins got a real mauling in the media when she asked "if black lives matter so much why do they keep killing each other"

Not really my point, to be fair.

Now I am a racist but it strikes me that if I was a black person I would be seriously pissed off with the fact that murders of my fellow racial group only get any kind of media traction if it is a white person who kills them. Which is bloody rare. And that is a form of out-in-the-open racism based solely on skin colour. No ifs or but. And yet seems to be actually celebrated, even enjoyed, by the very people who proclaim themselves to not be racist. Messed up world when a far-right lunatic such as myself calls this out for what it is


A murder is a murder. And the ripples of it destroy those snared up in it for years, decades even.

Do you think the parents of a murder victim grieve any less because of the skin colour of the person who killed them? No. So why should societal outrage be any less equal?

I don't know, but they could get a title if the murderer was White.
