5 year old shot on his bicycle
 

Suspect charged with killing 5-year-old NC boy has initial court appearance. In Wilson, NC, yesterday a 25 year old black neighbor shot and killed a 5 year old for riding his bike on his grass. He is in custody. No national news about this?

"Get off my lawn!"

Breitbart, the Daily Wire and Fox have it as it turns up on my FB account. This 25 year old POS shot the 5 year old child point blank in the head. He should be tried and executed ASAP.

The murdered child's name is Cannon Hindant

His killer is named Darius Sessoms.

awful - and when hearing about this terrible event, I thought "what if the Races were switched"? In these times where most Media focus on THEIR bias and agenda - this news DOES NOT help. BUT if it was W on B - they would be ALL OVER IT. sad to say, but these are the times we are living in - ALL for Nov 3rd. period. sad.

It’s funny how CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, Washington Post and NY Times spent weeks destroying the Covington high school kid but have totally ignored this story.

I do not see why this would be national news.

I agree. When I saw the topic posted, I thought it happened in The Villages.

It seems black lives don't matter if another black is the killer!

Considering everything I see on the news, and considering the extreme atrocity of this crime, I can certainly see how this would make the national news.

Doesn't seem to bother other blacks either.

How is This different then the George Floyd being National News?

- Only one-way to take care of this Savage! -
.... and make it hurt .....

This is the child who was shot:

The killer is an ex-con, a convicted felon.

This should be headline national news! It is an atrocity and may be a hate crime.

In the Floyd case the deceased was a black and a convicted violent felon, an ex-con, possibly dying at the hands of a white cop, or maybe not, but from a self administered drug overdose. In this case the killer is a black convicted felon, an ex-con; the victim is a white child. It is a turnabout situation the MSM wants to ignore.

So much of what you said and think is painfully correct. I am so sad to hear a little one has been killed. I will say his name. Cannon Hinnant. I will think of him and his family and wonder how anyone can ever survive such pain. His name was Cannon Hinnant and he was a little one of an age I knew well and loved. My fours became fives in my preschool class. They were so dear to me and their parents.

Cannon Hinnant. What a beautiful name. Thank you Velvet for showing us his beautiful face.

you can bet if the cops hurt the perp while arresting him it would be on the media.

Racist much???
 

When the law works and someone is charged for a crime - outrage isn't necessary because that is how it is suppose to work. This is just BS and the color of the criminal and color of the victim is irrelevant but I'm sure I'm in the minority here.

You may be in the minority on this forum, but not in the country..

Color of skin is just another label to make folks feel superior. The law, crime....all are colorblind. Bad people are bad people...good people are good people, and the law is the law everywhere

The law worked or is working in the George Floyd case. So you feel there’s no need for outrage in that case?

Doesn't Cannon's life matter? There's no national outrage over this because the colors do not fit the narrative of the mercenary media.

This act is not the aberration that you want it to be. This pond scum is everywhere and getting louder and more violent. They need to be put down like the mad dogs that they are.

Note: "they" is not a reference to black people

If you don't see the difference then you likely never understood the rationale for the protests. Make no mistake, the murder of this 5 year old is horrific.

Because it was a black man killing someone. It’s only bad if it’s a white person killing a black child.

Curious why you had to mention that he was black. If he was a Baptist would you have pointed it out?

Pure hate crime. Should be no need to waste the courts time, but I'm sure they will find some way to make this killer a hero.

Yes pond scum is everywhere and so are GUNS! Interesting no outrage here that guns are a dime a dozen to anyone who wants one. Maybe you’d think differently if your grandchild was needlessly murdered with a gun.

Well said

Doesn’t fit the narrative
 

It does not fit the BLM narrative on the news so there is no coverage of it. This sick individual should be tried and if convicted, no appeal process and electric chair, or hanging, no lethal injection Or cuddle anyone that commits a crime of that magnitude!!!!!!

The difference is that Floyd was killed by the police who are supposed to be protecting us, and the child was killed by a crazy neighbor. Huge difference.

You are right there is a BIG the Cannon was an innocent five-year-old little boy riding his bike and his front yard.
Floyd was a career criminal high on methamphetamines, fentanyl and cannabinoids and breaking the law you’re right there’s a BIG difference between those two people.

I agree, simply put easy to understand.

What? This is just a heinous crime. And I don't care if it was a white guy shooting a white kid or a black kid or a brown kid. Or if this was a black guy shooting a black kid. This was an ADULT shooting an innocent five year old KID for riding a bike on his grass. Are we raising people up in the United States with so little morals, so little values that this happens. The scarier part is that there are more people like this that could commit this type of hatred, moral less act.

forget the trial, just execute

Exactly right.

We have crime throughout the country, and there are black and white perpetrators. But when they are blue, that's when we should start to take notice whether they were putting their knee on someones neck or shooting them in the back as they flee and are unarmed. I don't care whether the person that got killed was white or black - it's not right. It just seems to happen to black people more often than white.

We have to hold the authorities to a higher standard. They are NOT supposed to be killing people for no good cause. At the very least we need to get rid of them as they do everyone a disservice including the fine men and women in blue who DO protect us.

The intent of the original post was not in the best spirit and the intent should be questioned.

Really????

What about that tree over there? Too many people are just one step away from that. This is how it starts.

You probably won’t hear anything about this either. As long as there’s protesting going on, they wouldn’t dare make they protesters mad. Our govt. are hanging their heads now because they’re worried about starting something else instead of getting tough, what more could happen they might burn something else. How sad to hear about this!

Its a Black on Black crime and that's never covered.This week 20 black people shot in D.C. in mass shooting. cnn msnbc or any other station never covered this just fox news.
