‘Hands up, don’t shoot’: an ignoble lie for the ages
The Associated Press explored this disconnect between the ongoing “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” narrative with the facts presented at the inquiry.
“Even if you don’t find that it’s true, it’s a valid rallying cry,” protester Taylor Gruenloh told the AP. “It’s just a metaphor.”
“This is not about one boy getting shot in the street, but about the hundreds just like him who have received the same callous and racially-influenced treatment,” Oakland demonstrator Gabe Johnson, identified as “a middle school teacher” by the AP, insisted.
“So ultimately, no, it doesn’t matter at all if somehow we can say for sure whether this one young man really said these words or had his hands up.”
But that's just another lie.
The whole thing is a lie.
Probably a success for criminals, though.
Especially the criminals who plague black neighborhoods.
A culture of lies
And here a news network's coverage is nothing but a lie.
CNN is lying about rioters, calling them "peaceful protesters"
Civil disobedience does not happen at night.
No matter when the grand jury decision was announced, people who are engaged in peaceful protest take out their signs and march down the street in broad daylight.
Peaceful protesters don’t wear creepy anarchist masks or even bandannas to cover their faces.
They are protesting with a clear conscience and are happy to have anyone know their identity.
Peaceful protesters do not dress like they are about to knock over a convenience store because they are not about to knock over a convenience store.
From day one, CNN has twisted the Ferguson story.
The network decided early on that an injustice had been done, contrary facts aside.
When the grand jury decided not to indict, CNN was primed for outrage, because there was no way officer Darren Wilson could have acted appropriately.
The network helped stir up a nation to the point of violence.
Yet, since the protesters must always be on the side of angels, CNN lies about the destruction that follows.
It’s rare you see the liberal media’s dishonesty in such stark terms, but CNN can’t control the pictures.
If you wanted to know what was really happening this week, all you had to do was press the mute button.
