[QUOTE=Swoop;1823796]What is racist, is the news media selectively deciding what stories you see, based solely on race. Again, if Floyd had been white, his story would not have made it to the national news outlets. Tony Timpa’s death was startlingly similar, but he was white. That’s why you never saw his story, or know his name!![/QUOTE
