Today I was reading about the current FBI most wanted list. Just bored, wanted to do something online.
What do you think? Why would they do this?
They captured one Eduardo Ravelo. Curious about the circumstances, I Googled a couple of articles. Now check this out!
This was posted on the 14th of March. Notice that headline. They are headlining that a Mexican killed Americans with ties to the US Consulate. The Americans are of Mexican ancestry but who cares? They are Americans and at least one of them works for the US Consulate so that makes it even worse. This is a serious allegation now. We have a man killing protected Americans with access to the US consulate. Hello? You would think that CNN would hop all over that. It's a sensational story. Right? Wrong. Instead, they did nothing.
The only thing that they did was the very next day. Instead of taking this where they should have, they change the entire headline and downplay the political implications to ZERO. They simply call the consulate "busy". Get that? Busy?! As in "The consulate is a busy place." This is something you would read in your first grader reader books. No, please don't die of shock and disbelief. It is incredible but true!
They now, in this "updated" story, paint the sob story of how an innocent couple was gunned down. It was just like the story you read about last week when someone was shot while being robbed. Same kind of thing. Yes, the story really is sad but it should be much more frightening.
Why isn't it? Why isn't it more frightening?
Let's see, do you think that maybe CNN didn't want people to connect the dots there? Or maybe CNN doesn't want you thinking anything bad about Mexicans killing Mexicans? If that's the case, then maybe American Mexicans may start getting nervous about this whole thing and may agree a wall is a good idea to keep out the garbage, like Cartel (I love how they're labeled as gangs, instead) executioners? Do you THINK?!
How blatant is this article? I even took screen caps to prove it. The only alteration is where I clipped it for privacy purposes (multiple tabs open, etc.).
It's interesting to note which one was shared on Facebook. Isn't it?
What do you think? Why would they do this?
