severe updates on the j's indie/rock blog. check it out.

thanks to orcinus via atrios we have this simultaneously enraging and frightening tale of how the media continues its (unintentional?) rampage of racism in reporting terrorism.

white supremecist group. in possession of a certified weapon of mass destruction. possible larger, more sinister plot still in the works. and it takes a local cbs affiliate to break this story? not the national news?

this shows the same set of bias contained in the paul hill case in which the murderer of an abortion doctor was referred to as a "anti-abortion activist."

when will this ridiculous bias cease? how much has to happen before we can admit that terrorism wears many skin colours. and that white is definitely one of them. tim mcveigh. terry nichols. paul hill. ted kazinski. (allegedly) eric rudolph. who's next? there's a whole line of them waiting out there. just give them the opportunity.

and i bet you they won't get stopped at airline security either.

please remember my ongoing drive to raise money for the Triad Health Project AIDS charity here in Greensboro. everytime you link to Amazon on this site (like that) and purchase something while you are there, a percentage revenue comes to me. all money raised during the month of december is being donated to the Triad Health Project. please help out. if you are shopping this holiday season at amazon, remember to go through my site. all it takes is a few clicks to help a lot of people.
