Should the media show coverage of every black child killed in black neighborhoods by black men or is there not enough time in a half hour?

Me? I think we need to cover every child who is killed. We should force Al Sharpton to give a eulogy for every one of these people. 

Update:

Llewen: You blocked me, you coward. But I'll comment here. The police are the ONLY people protecting black people in these neighborhoods. THAT is the point. Black people killing black people is so common it doesn't even make the local news except in 'numbers'.

    Media won't touch that. It doesn't fit the narrative. This is why they're the enemy of the people.

    Innocent black children killed by another black criminal? Meh who cares.

    Black criminal killed by police? What a horrible injustice. There needs to be riots!

    Good idea, that would keep the Rev sharpton and Obama busy, maybe the dead kids would look like kids they would have had etc etc

    Why leave out the white children murdered by white males? BLM protests when douchebags like you don’t want the killer punished.

    So the dumb f****** argument you're making here is that until we can stop all crime, racist white people should be able to kill black people whenever they want to?  Or are you just mad that it's big news when that happens?

    Because we have so many people getting killed due to just regular run-of-the-mill violence or irresponsible gun use, that it doesn't make any difference if racists run around killing people because they don't like the color of their skin?  I shouldn't be a big deal!

    The point has been made sufficiently by recent media coverage of such atrocities.  BLM still has a point about police protocol confronting black suspects.  Now this is a separate issue of child deaths from guns in Black neighborhoods.  The two issues shouldn't mix.

    I gather you are a supporter of Al Sharpton's Nation Action Network that has been marching against and speaking out about violence in African American neighborhoods, for years.  I'm glad to see that someone is finally acknowledging his efforts. 

    In any case, the media would have to give equal coverage to every white child killed.

    You can move out of a black neighborhood.  You can't move away from police
