Authorities searching for man of darker color with a foreign accent. He tried to cross into an unauthorized zone and was stopped, walked away pulling his hood up over his head. Not the exact script, but its close.
How hard do you think Cnn vetted this before it aired?
Am I fucking insane to think MSM will be disappointed if this is not a terrorist action?

(16,350 posts)is like 1/4 of everyone I know! That scrawl on CNN would irk me too. Good catch! The sooner they find out who did this, the better. And please let them be apprehended quickly and not a foreign national of a country on America's Shit List (aka Axis of Evil). Please don't let us start another war because of it.

April is when American whatever-the-fuck-you-want-to-call-them make their bones with our bones. It's April.

(12,296 posts)That's some serious profiling CNN's done.
Could have been a pissed-off former hotel employee. Or street worker. Or coulda just been your garden variety nut. That doesn't give ANY news network carte blanche to jump to a conclusion about the race, ethnicity, background or motive of whoever did it.
